Kress Commercial has unveiled its most advanced autonomous mowing solution to date with the launch of the Kress Robotics KR800 “Voyager”, marking a major step forward in professional, large-scale lawn care automation. Revealed at Equip Expo 2025, the Voyager has been engineered specifically for route-based commercial operations, helping businesses tackle labour shortages while improving productivity, efficiency, and profitability.

Designed to integrate seamlessly into existing service models, the Voyager is not just a robotic mower – it represents a new way of working for professional grounds maintenance teams.

A New Business Model for Commercial Lawn Care

Unlike traditional robotic mowers designed for single, fixed locations, the Kress Voyager KR800 is built for mobility and scale. Following a one-time mapping process, the Voyager stores an unlimited number of site maps, allowing it to travel with crews from property to property.

While teams focus on skilled tasks such as edging, planting, detailing, and maintenance, the Voyager autonomously handles the bulk mowing in the background – efficiently, quietly, and with zero emissions. This approach enables organisations to do more with fewer people, helping overcome ongoing workforce challenges.

According to Kress, Voyager is a cornerstone of their long-term commitment to advancing professional-grade automation and unlocking new revenue opportunities for both dealers and end users.

Advanced Autonomous Technology Without Boundary Wires

At the heart of the Voyager KR800 is automotive-grade autonomy, delivering precision and reliability across demanding commercial environments.

Key Technologies Include:

• RTK positioning for centimetre-level accuracy
• Boundary-wire-free operation, reducing installation complexity
• LiDAR, Vision AI, and ultrasonic sensors for 360° obstacle detection and avoidance
• High-precision navigation for consistent, repeatable results

This technology ensures Voyager can operate confidently in complex, real-world environments such as golf courses, sports facilities, caravan parks, councils, commercial estates, and large residential developments.

Performance Built for Professional Operations

The Kress Voyager KR800 is designed to match – and often exceed – the output of traditional mowing crews.

Performance Highlights:

• 40-inch cutting deck
• Mows up to 7 acres or 8 hours per charge
• Mowing speed of up to 5.6 mph
• Adjustable cutting height from 1.5 to 5 inches
• Handles slopes up to 40% (20 degrees)
• 5,000-hour service life

In dense, route-based environments such as HOA-style developments, Voyager can even travel between properties without a trailer, significantly reducing transport time and operational overheads.

Designed for Safety, Sustainability, and Efficiency

Voyager’s autonomous operation dramatically reduces exposure to: – Noise – Fuel – Emissions – Vibration

Its all-day runtime with zero emissions makes it ideal for organisations working toward sustainability targets while maintaining high performance standards. Integrated with the Kress Fleet Management System, operators gain full visibility and control over performance, scheduling, and machine health.
