Which radio-controlled tool holder to choose?

Who is the purchase of a radio-controlled tool carrier for?

Whether you are an agricultural professional, a construction company, land and landscape management company, a municipal services representative, or you work in the mining industry, acquiring a radio-controlled tool carrier can be a wise choice to support your daily tasks.

What is a radio controlled tool carrier?

A radio-controlled tool carrier, also known as a “slope robot”, refers to any type of motorized equipment used to transport equipment intended for soil preparation: stone buryer, brush cutter, cutting bar for mowing grass. high, or even weeding tools. It is a versatile robot which offers the possibility of leveling the ground, turning the earth, burying stones or leveling the ground. These machines are mainly used for the maintenance of green spaces that are difficult to access and sometimes dangerous for humans, such as roadsides or steep slopes.

Hydraulic or PTO?

Currently, a considerable variety of radio-controlled tool carriers are available on the market in Switzerland, mainly equipped with hydraulic or PTO drive. The main distinction is in the method of power transmission: hydraulic for hydraulic drive and mechanical for PTO drive. Each system has its own advantages and disadvantages, with the choice depending on the specific needs of the application.

At Builtronics, we favor hydraulic drive. In this system, power is transmitted through hydraulic fluids, providing great speed and torque flexibility, the ability to operate multiple tools simultaneously, and rapid response to load changes. This solution is often used in applications requiring high precision and fine control of speed and torque, such as modern agricultural machinery, construction equipment and machine tools.

Which brand should I choose for my radio-controlled tool rack?

To date, several brands offer radio-controlled tool holders:

• MDB and the Green Climber
• Köpple and the Crawler
• Agria and the 9700th
• Energreen and Robo
• McConnel and the Robocut
• Hymach and the Herbhy
• Prinoth and the Raptor 100

What differentiates one model from another?

The differences between different models of radio-controlled tool carriers mainly lie in several aspects, such as:

• Specific features and applications: Each model can be designed for specific applications. Some may be optimized for clearing brush in hard-to-reach environments, while others are more suited to cutting grass on steep terrain, for example.
• Field capabilities: Mobility and traction characteristics may vary from model to model. Some are designed to work on very steep terrain, while others are more versatile and can adapt to a variety of terrain.
• Power and performance: Engine power, load capacity and travel speed may differ between models. Some are more powerful and can handle heavier tasks, while others are more suited to light-duty applications.
• Size and dimensions: Radio controlled tool carriers can vary in size and dimensions, which may affect their ability to access tight spaces or be transported easily.
• Control options: Remote control systems can also vary from model to model, offering different functionality and levels of precision in handling equipment.
• Durability and reliability: The build quality, materials used and quality control standards can influence the durability and reliability of the radio controlled tool carrier.
