In the last two years, field clearance work has taken its toll, as hundreds of thousands of Greeks have been forced to clear their abandoned fields due to the new legislation. Fields that in some cases had been abandoned for years or even decades, with weeds and untended trees in them.

Unsurprisingly, a large proportion of field owners had never been involved in such work, nor did they have the necessary equipment to carry it out. Many of them therefore opted to buy tools for this work, while others resorted to professionals in the field to carry out the grass cutting and pruning processes.


This shift has not left the lawn mower market unaffected, as it has greatly increased the number of people who can potentially purchase a lawn mower.


This coincided with the entry of precision farming and smart technologies into the industry. The result? The mass release into the market of new, state-of-the-art, remote-controlled machines to make work more relaxing and sustainable for everyone.


A prime example is the Panther AMD R55 shredder, which combines convenience and performance.


The market was initially filled with bulky machines that, while they do have remote control, they also have limitations in their capabilities due to their size. They are not able to maneuver in tight spaces, between narrow rows in fields or in photovoltaic parks, under panels,for example.


These are the problems that Panther AMD R55 is called upon to solve. It is the ideal tool for demanding cleaning jobs in difficult and dangerous terrain. Thanks to its remote steering and robust design, it offers absolute flexibility and safety, even in sloping or inaccessible areas. Equipped with a reliable 7 hp petrol engine, starting either by manual or electric starter, the R55 offers consistent performance and autonomy.


With a cutting width of 55 cm and free-rotating blades, it manages thick grass and dense vegetation with ease. The cutting height is electronically adjusted from the control unit between 2 and 20 cm, offering maximum precision in every use.


Propulsion is via crawlers, which are driven by two powerful 800W brushless electric motors with integrated heavy-duty reducer, ensuring durability and reliable operation even in the harshest conditions.


It features two speed options (low - high), and the remote control range reaches up to 400 meters, allowing for comfortable and safe remote operation.


Ideal for orchards and olive groves as it moves between trees with ease due to its size.


The chassis of the R55 is made entirely of high quality steel for high durability and reduced maintenance requirements in long-term use.
