Why Experience Matters

When it comes to autonomous technology, it’s not just about innovation — it’s about knowing the turf. Rather than retrofit other products for golf, Toro’s solutions are built from the ground up by people who understand the game, the course and the crew. With over 100 years of experience in golf course maintenance, Toro designs autonomous equipment that fits seamlessly into daily operations because it’s engineered with golf courses in mind. In addition to product quality, Toro provides after-sales support with training, parts and more to ensure long-term customer satisfaction.

Tailored to the Task

Toro’s autonomous journey began with GeoLink technology on the Multi Pro 5800 sprayer, offering GPS-guided precision. That foundation has expanded to include the GeoLink Solutions Autonomous Fairway Mower, the Turf Pro™ mower series and the Range Pro™ for automated ball collection.

Each product in the range is designed to meet specific demands on the course. The GeoLink Autonomous Fairway Mower is ideal for intensive fairway maintenance, using proven Toro cutting units for high-quality performance. Other options, such as the Turf Pro, excel at routine mowing across large areas with quiet, efficient operation. And the semi-autonomous Multi Pro 5800 with GeoLink Steer combines hands-on control with automated steering, enhancing precision in spray applications.

The Technology Behind the Machines

Toro’s autonomous products feature three core technologies: centimetre-level Real Time Kinematc (RTK) and GPS positioning, digital boundary mapping and wireless communication. These features enable Toro’s machines to follow set paths, avoid overlap and even operate in sync as needed.

For example, the Range Pro and Turf Pro can run side by side, coordinated and controlled remotely through a mobile device. This expands your labour pool by allowing greenkeeping staff to apply their skills and time to more specialised, high-value tasks — enhancing productivity without compromising on the human expertise that’s essential to course care.

Looking Ahead

Just as the golf industry continues to evolve, Toro continues to invest in its autonomous lineup to meet changing demands. By listening to those on the ground and continuing to fund research and development, Toro is committed to working toward a future where automation and human expertise work seamlessly together.
