Fairway Mower I-GINS
Enhance golf course operations with the automation of course management
Transforming the paradigm of golf course maintenance
Maintaining a golf course in top condition and ensuring high golfer satisfaction requires widespread, frequent, and precise fairway mowing. By equipping fairway mowers with I-GINS technology, we have achieved high-quality turf maintenance operations without the need for manual intervention. Challenges such as labor shortages, high maintenance costs, and the allocation of maintenance time that golf course management faces can be effectively addressed with I-GINS technology.
Testimonials from golf courses that have implemented the system
"The precision is unmistakable just by looking at the cut lines."
Frequent mowing is known to improve turf quality, but manual labor constraints limit the frequency and consistency of cuts, leading to variability in finish. The introduction of automated mowers, capable of operating at night, addresses this issue by enabling increased mowing frequencies without significantly impacting labor costs and allowing human resources to be reallocated to areas in need, thus enhancing the overall quality of the course.
Furthermore, the early adoption of state-of-the-art I-GINS equipped mowing machines has had additional benefits. It has spurred younger course management staff to take the initiative in suggesting operational improvements, fostering a spirit of innovation and a desire to achieve a superior and more beautiful course. This represents an invaluable asset to our organization.
"Thanks to the ability to allocate labor to previously overlooked sections, the overall course quality has significantly improved."
I hear that the more you mow the grass, the better it gets. Mowing the lawn requires manpower, and increasing the number of mowings cannot be easily achieved with limited manpower. Also, since the cutting method differs depending on the person, uniform cutting or uneven cutting may occur. How can we improve the accuracy and quality of the grass? The solution to this problem was a lawn mowing robot that can be operated even at night.
Mowing the lawn requires manpower and time, but automatic mowing in the evening and at night not only increases the number of mowings, but also has the benefit of having little impact on labor costs no matter how many times you mow. Additionally, by automating fairway mowing, we not only save labor, but we are also able to focus on areas that were previously inaccessible, improving the overall quality of the course.
Features / Function
Quality of cut that both keepers and golfers nod to
Guided by GNSS and IMU data, I-GINS equipped vehicles achieve precise cuts, allowing for uniform, attractive zebra or diamond patterns on undulating fairways, and clear rough borders. Increased mowing frequency can boost turf health, reduce weeds, improve drainage, and lessen diseases.
Easy to operate on a smartphone by anyone
Operate autonomous mowers via an Android™ app, simply selecting a route and pressing start. Typical fairways complete in 30 minutes without needing advanced skills. The app shows location, progress, and estimated finish, allowing easy pause/resume.

Innovations for safe and reliable use even when unattended
I-GINS-equipped fairway mowers feature obstacle and bumper sensors front and back, slowing or stopping upon detection and notifying via smartphone. They resume cutting after a slight retreat to avoid missed spots and can adjust acceleration, reel movement, and turning to prevent turf damage.
Maximizing facility use with night operations
Guided by GNSS, operations can continue at night, allowing post-closure course maintenance with I-GINS-equipped machines for optimal facility use.
