	BelRobotics Wonder Set to break new ground in turf care and golf range maintenance, the Belrobotics robotic mowers and golf Ballpicker are launching for 2009. Mow, pick up balls and hit balls all day, all at the same time. AutoEarth sees exceptionl potential for this concept given labour savings and increased turnover potential. As well as being eco friendly, using just battery power, the near silent robots allow golfers to hit all day, whilst the mower and golf ball picker roam around doing their job. The range never needs to stop, increasing returns and savings on running costs. The PARCMOW and the BIGMOW can mow turf up to 10,000m2 and 20,000m2 respectively. Ideal for large turf areas such as golf ranges, sporting fields, private homes and public grounds, the Belrobotic range is changing the way we operate forever. Ph: (02) 6923 0022 autoearth@gmail.com
