Football pitch robotic mower.
Autonomy and safety
Belrobotics® supplies football clubs with GPS-RTK and Wisenav® (wireless navigation) robotic mowers. Pattern mowing, multi-zone mode for multiple pitches, coverage of up to 75,000 m². Precision at your club’s service.
Key features of your football pitch robotic mower
"The robot mows the grass between matches. In complete safety. Grounds staff keep the pitch in good condition. All season long."
What are the challenges
of your grounds?
Managing the upkeep of a football pitch at an amateur club is a real challenge, both in terms of time and budget. We were looking for a solution that was effective, affordable and easy to use.
The technical answer?
Our Belrobotics® BM-850S operates continuously, day and night. Its app is very easy to use: launch, carry out the task, return to base. Having a local dealer also makes it easier to arrange servicing and maintenance.

What are the benefits
for your grounds?
The robotic lawnmower cuts the grass into fine particles that form a natural layer which acts as fertiliser, giving the lawn a consistently green and well-tended appearance. A visible and tangible result for an amateur club.
The next step to optimising your mowing
The robot is already running round the clock at full capacity. The next step is to maintain this pace over the long term and make full use of the app to fine-tune the mowing times according to the needs of the grounds.
“When I took over as chairman of an amateur club, I optimised the maintenance of our pitch using the BM-850S from Belrobotics®. The pitch is green, the grass acts as a natural fertiliser, and the app is simple to use. And, finally, the cost is affordable for a small club like ours.”
Quick and frequent maintenance
Mowing cycles are completed in a few hours. This sustained pace ensures that the grounds are maintained on a regular basis, even under the pressure of intensive use. 100% standalone operation.
Uniform cut, hard-wearing grass
Robotic mowing produces a consistent cut across the entire area. Continuous mulching returns nutrients to the soil, improving the density and resilience of the grass. Nature does the work.
Fewer risks, more safety.
Belrobotics® robots take the occupancy of the grounds into account. Regular mowing keeps the surface even and supple. You minimise the risk of injury to players.
Well-maintained soil, sustainable lawn
The absence of heavy machinery preserves the soil structure: no compaction, better aeration, and a denser lawn. Sustainable management without the need for major maintenance. Your pitch is level enough to withstand heavy use, season after season.

Answers for professionals
Continuous mowing of a football pitch is preferable to occasional mowing. Belrobotics® professional robotic mowers mulch the grass (no disposal budget). GPS-RTK navigation positions the robot to within 2 cm and mows systematically in stripes. No boundary wire needed thanks to Wisenav®. The BM-850 mows up to 30,000 m² three times a week. Find out how to achieve denser turf and a more even playing surface.
Automated maintenance of a football pitch cuts the overall cost by up to 50% compared with conventional mowing. Even, regular mowing also reduces fertiliser use by around 20% thanks to permanent mulching. No more clipping collection or disposal, an estimated electricity cost of €150 per year and reduced maintenance. Try it with the online calculator.
On a football pitch, the recommended cutting height is a minimum of 30 mm. UEFA regulates this parameter: it prohibits a height above 30 mm and recommends cutting at 28 mm. Daily robotic mowing naturally complies with this rule and maintains a constant height throughout the season.
Football pitch maintenance relies on frequent, regular mowing. Not on occasional interventions. Daily robotic mowing keeps the turf dense and uniform, with a complete cycle finished in a few hours. Mulching returns clippings to the soil: no more collection, no more slippery patches, and an estimated 20% reduction in fertiliser. The absence of heavy machinery protects the pitch and player safety.
A football pitch mowed robotically uses around 200 kWh of electricity per year (BM-1050). That is a marginal energy bill compared with a tractor or ride-on mower. Add routine maintenance: replacement of the stainless steel blades on the floating cutting heads and an annual check by your local authorised Belrobotics® dealer. Try our cost calculator.
