Kilter AX-1
The next generation of ultra high precision weeding.
Kilter AX-1
Kilter AX-1, the first ultra-high precision weeding robot for vegetables that applies micro droplets of herbicide. An opportunity to increase food production and quality, whilst reducing herbicide usage, environmental impact, and costs.
Move selectivity from chemistry to software
Kilter takes weed control to the next level by using smart AI instead of chemicals to find and treat weeds with 6x6mm accuracy. Our patented droplet technology sprays just the right amount of herbicide directly on the weed without touching your crops. This means you can protect your fields, and start treatment earlier for healthier crops.
Reduce herbicide use
When we spray with AX-1 we take a picture of the crop, analyze the picture and apply a micro droplet of pelargonic acid on to the weeds. A typical weed pressure is appx 5%, meaning you can reduce the amount with up to 95%!
Time is money
We understand that every farm has different needs and different practice. The variety of crops, land, climate, and size means that the hours you put into weeding is different than your neighbor. By adapting Kilter technology, we cannot guarantee such and such reduction in hours. However, we can guarantee that the more manual labor you have in your weeding operation today, the more time can be used to do other tasks at your farm.
Modulated system to fit your needs
The robot is based on a modular design with a robust but light weight frame. This means that the robot can be tailor made to fit to your normal operation. Together we specify how your robot will be produced.
Brand new application method
A brand new application method that combines artificial intelligence and new nozzle technology. AX-1 aims droplets of herbicide only on the weeds, with a resolution of 6x6mm. The selectivity is moved from the herbicide to the computer. This is a change of paradigm and enables the use of novel, environmental friendly herbicides.
Autonomous.
AX-1 is autonomous, meaning you can spend time elsewhere than on your tractor.
