Description

The Sitia Trektor is a hybrid robot tractor that allows for up to 24 hours of autonomous work. Trektor can change its wheelbase or height (adjustable ground clearance) to adapt itself to a crop. The robot is compatible with existing implements. It can work in vineyards, market gardens, vegetable plots and arboriculture. It can perform repetitive tasks such as soil cultivation, spraying and hoeing. There are three Trektor models: MINI, MIDI and MAXI. Navigation is based on RTK GPS and high-resolution odometry. In addition, there is LiDAR and camera survey, obstacle detection and passive safety.

Drive train type

Hybrid (diesel and electric)

Characteristics

2 central tool-holders between the front and rear wheels. Trektor has 14Kw batteries and a 25 liter diesel tank. 1 cat 2 three point rear tool-holder. Hydraulic: up to 35 L/min
2 single acting outputs, 1 double acting output. No PTO

Navigation system

Navigates using a land survey of a field and a mission’s parameters (pattern/ implement size/etc.) The GNSS/INS positioning enables Trektor to work in difficult environments. It has both LiDAR and camera in order to precisely detect any obstacle on path and to identify them.
