Turfect Golf
Robotic golf. Built around your course.
Robotic mowers handle the repetitive fairway and rough mowing, night and day. We design the fleet around your layout, install the reference infrastructure, commission it and support it through the season.
Why robotics
Mowing that never waits for a shift.
A robotic fleet mows on its own schedule, including overnight, and returns to charge without anyone moving it. The work that used to fill a mowing shift happens quietly in the background.
-
01
Frequent light cuts
Mowing little and often keeps presentation consistent instead of cutting heavily twice a week.
-
02
Off-peak windows
Zones can run overnight or outside play, so mowing stops competing with tee times.
-
03
Electric and quiet
No fuel handling, no engine noise across the property, no daily mower checks.
Labour
Your crew has better things to do.
Robotics does not replace turf professionals. It takes the repetitive hours off their week so their expertise goes where it counts. What moves off the mowing schedule is your decision, and it should reflect how your crew is actually staffed.
Off the mowing schedule
- Fairway passes on a fixed rota
- Rough mowing between other jobs
- Mower fuelling, checks and cleanup
- Mowing rescheduled after rain
Where those hours go
- Greens, tees and approaches
- Bunkers, edging and detail work
- Irrigation, agronomy and course projects
- Fleet monitored from a phone
Consistency
Systematic mowing. Not random patterns.
The EPOS system mows to a mapped plan using satellite positioning and a reference station rather than a buried boundary wire. Zones are defined on a map, cut heights are set per zone, and the pattern is repeatable, so presentation does not depend on who was on the mower that morning.
Fairways
Built for fairway turf.
Fairways are where a robotic fleet earns its place: large, open, mown constantly. We size the fleet by acreage and lay out zones hole by hole, with charging points positioned so machines spend their time cutting rather than travelling.
- Models
- CEORA and the 580L EPOS are the fairway workhorses. Which one fits depends on acreage, turf type and how the holes are laid out.
- Zones
- Each fairway becomes a mapped zone with its own schedule and cut height.
- Charging
- Charging stations sit where they suit the routing, powered from an existing supply or a solar install.
Rough & surrounds
Slopes, banks and the awkward bits.
Rough, surrounds and bunker faces are harder ground: steeper, tighter and more of a nuisance to mow with ride-ons. All-wheel-drive machines handle terrain that wheeled mowers struggle with.
- All-wheel drive
- The 535 AWD EPOS is built for slopes and bunker faces, where turning a ride-on is difficult.
- Transitions
- Zones are mapped so machines cross between areas on defined paths.
- Honest limits
- Greens, tees and approaches still belong to your reel mowers. Robotics covers fairways, rough and surrounds — we will tell you where it does not fit.
Fleet design
The right robot for the right acre.
Fleet planning starts with your property, not a price list. We measure the areas to be mown, look at terrain and complexity, then work out how many machines of which model it takes, where they charge and how they move between zones.
- Acreage per area
- Turf type and cut height
- Terrain and slope
- Play and event schedule
- Power and charging locations
- Transport paths between zones
Mapping & infrastructure
Virtual boundaries, mapped to your course.
EPOS uses satellite positioning corrected by an RS5 reference station, so boundaries are drawn on a map rather than dug into the ground. Zones can be changed later without trenching. Where there is no power at the right spot, we build solar-powered reference station installs.
- Site survey
- We check sightlines, coverage and where a station can physically go.
- Reference stations
- RS5 stations are installed and commissioned. Coverage is planned per site.
- Zone mapping
- Fairways, rough and stay-out areas are mapped, then refined once machines run.
Installation
Commissioned properly, then handed over.
-
01
Survey
We walk the property, confirm acreage and agree the zones.
-
02
Infrastructure
Reference stations and charging points are installed and tested.
-
03
Mapping
Zones, schedules and cut heights are set up and validated on the ground.
-
04
Training
Your team learns the app, the daily checks and what to do when something stops.
The Turfect service standard
Robotic mowers need human support.
The machine is only half the system. We plan it, install it and stay accountable for it, with a stocked parts room and technicians who have been fixing robotic mowers for over a decade.
When a mower stops, your operation doesn’t.Our service standard
- Experienced.
- Stocked.
- Responsive.
- Accountable.
Case study
Canadian golf goes autonomous.
Port Hope Golf & Country Club × Turfect
Port Hope was one of the first courses to fully commit to autonomous mowing. Fairways and rough take the bulk of a mowing week, and every hour spent on them is an hour not spent on greens, bunkers and presentation.

The fleet
The right robot for the right acre.
Every fleet starts with the property, not a spec sheet. We size it against six things:
- Acreage
- Turf type
- Terrain
- Cut requirements
- Operations
- Site complexity

What happens when it rains?
Mowing can continue in wet conditions, and schedules can be set to hold off when you would rather keep machines off the turf. It is your call, set per zone.
What about golfers and play?
Zones can be scheduled around play, including overnight. Machines are quiet and move slowly, and they stay inside their mapped boundaries.
Can it handle our slopes?
All-wheel-drive machines are made for slopes and bunker faces. We assess your steepest ground during the site visit rather than guessing from a spec sheet.
What about theft or vandalism?
Machines are tracked and alarmed, and tied to your installation. We will talk through siting and charging locations with that in mind.
Do we still need our reel mowers?
Yes. Greens, tees and approaches stay with your existing equipment. Robotics is for fairways, rough and surrounds.
Who looks after them?
Turfect does. We stock parts, service the machines and answer the phone. Your team handles daily checks, and we handle the rest.
What happens in winter?
Machines come out of service for the season. We will agree storage and pre-season servicing with you.
How long does installation take?
It depends on the property and on how much infrastructure is needed. We give you a schedule with the site plan rather than a generic answer.
