The Compact One. Optimized for fully automated plant assessment.
The Compact One. Optimized for fully automated plant assessment.
With the tipard multi-carrier platform, digitization and automation in agriculture are reaching the next level.
The tipard 500 is the smallest multi-carrier platform in the tipard series and has been specially developed for tasks in dense plant stands and trial fields.
Its low weight, compact design and fully autonomous control make it an ideal solution for precise data collection, scientific applications and light-duty field work. Whether plant breeding, agronomic experimentation or autonomous monitoring – the tipard 500 offers maximum flexibility with minimal space requirements.
A clearance height of up to 2.2 m allows it to be used even in tall crops or in late stages of development.
Variable track widths and independent 4-wheel steering allow precise adaptation to any application scenario.
The system is powered by a 4.8 kWh battery storage unit – quiet, emission-free and low-maintenance.
In addition to autonomous operation, the tipard 500 offers the option of manual control, where the operator guides the vehicle comfortably and safely via a wireless remote control.
The integrated locat precision satellite receiver of the latest generation, ensures accurate and fast position and direction determination – even under difficult conditions.
Thanks to its compact packing dimensions of 2.2 m × 1.25 m × 1.25 m, the tipard 500 can be easily transported in a minibus, which greatly simplifies logistics and deployment planning.
Versatile application:
