RC Mowers Prepares Autonomous Expansion for Equip Expo

The company’s shift aims to address persistent labor shortages and rising operational costs within the landscaping and public works sectors. By introducing an autonomous mower platform, RC Mowers intends to shift human operators toward higher-value tasks, effectively increasing overall productivity. Beyond the new autonomous hardware, the firm is debuting accessories that allow its existing R-Series slope mowers to perform duties beyond traditional grass cutting.

CEO Michael Brandt noted that the development process relied heavily on direct feedback from contractors and municipal crews. The goal is to provide equipment that maintains utility across multiple seasons rather than remaining idle during off-peak periods. These solutions will be presented to dealers and media on October 21 before appearing on the main floor at the Kentucky Exposition Center, where over 1,100 exhibitors are expected to gather.
