YV01- Autonomous chaser
On the road to versatility
A synthesis of know-how and technological development, the YV01 is a true ally in a wide range of viticultural tasks.
A single crawler can follow you on spraying jobs, thanks to its mounted spray boom, but also on soil-working tasks, thanks to a lifting arm equipped with knife or griffin.
Versatility and user safety are in the DNA of Yanmar Vineyard Solutions. These are our priorities as we support you in your daily tasks.
Less soil compaction
Soil compaction can be a major challenge for winegrowers using vineyard machinery. Not anymore! By applying Yanmar’s advanced technology, the YV01 offers extreme lightness compared to other vineyard robots. Compaction is reduced to an absolute minimum.
Can withstand slopes up to 45
Thanks to its design and reliable components, the robot can climb up and down 45% gradients and compensate for 20% slopes, a major advantage for winegrowers with difficult-to-manage plots. It is perfect for narrow, sloping vineyards.
Total autonomy thanks to GPS
Incorporating the latest centimetric GPS-RTK navigation technology, the robot operates autonomously. What’s more, it’s powered by a fuel-efficient petrol engine that can last for several hours without interruption. All you need is a supervisor to observe operations in progress.
Electrostatic spraying
Under development – available in 2025
At the heart of the YV01 is electrostatic spray technology, which ensures that all vine surfaces, whether exposed or hidden, are treated efficiently and economically. The result? The quantity of product used is optimized and there is less waste. An advantage for improving vineyard treatment results.
Japanese manufacturing for optimum quality
Yanmar’s YV01 robot was designed at the Maibara R&D center in Japan, and all components are sourced from local suppliers via a reliable supply chain. Final production is handled in-house.
Rigorous quality control ensures that users can buy with confidence. This promise is underpinned by the extensive geographical coverage of the European parts distribution center in the Netherlands, which ensures that delivery times are kept to a minimum.
