autonomous weed control

Meet the Kilter AX-1

We are pleased to release the Kilter AX-1, an autonomous robot for the vegetable market with precise single droplet weed detection technology.

Green on Green

With AI vision, the AX‑1 identifies and targets weeds in a 360‑degree area around each crop.

Single Drop Technology (SDT)

Using SDT, the AX‑1 applies a 1150‑micron VMD droplet every 6mm, targeting weeds at their earliest growth stage while helping preserve soil nutrients and moisture.

Autonomous Solutions

The Kilter AX‑1 is a lightweight autonomous solution that enables earlier weed control on crop beds, while freeing up labour to focus on higher‑value tasks across the operation. Running multiple AX‑1 units increases productivity, while their compact size and portability make it easy to move between locations.

Supports Organic Farming Practices

Suitable for both organic and conventional farming operations. Speak to your local Croplands Territory Manager to find out how the Kilter AX-1 works for your operation. Side by side comparison of an organic celery crop before Kilter AX-1 (right) and after (left).

Crop Types

The Kilter AX‑1 platform currently supports 21 crop types, seven of which are under ongoing research and development to meet the evolving needs of modern growers.
