Product Description

The SWOZI Auto Autonomous GPS Line Marking Robot is the flagship model in the SWOZI range, built for organisations that want to reduce physical workload and streamline marking operations. With its self-drive system and GPS-guided spray arm, it can mark a full sports pitch independently at speeds of up to 7 km/h.

Layout selection is handled via the tablet interface, after which the SWOZI Auto takes over. The operator monitors progress and can adjust speed as required, making it a practical solution for larger facilities, councils and contractors looking to improve efficiency without sacrificing accuracy.

Autonomous Marking That Changes the Workflow

The SWOZI Auto is designed for organisations that want the machine to do the driving. Once the layout is selected on the tablet and the starting point is set, the Auto marks the field independently at speeds of up to 7 km/h.

Instead of walking and pushing, the operator supervises. Speed can be adjusted during operation, and progress is visible at all times. For larger sites or regular multi-pitch marking, that shift from physical labour to monitored operation makes a measurable difference.

4 Operating Modes in One Machine

The SWOZI Auto is not limited to autonomous use. It can operate in four modes:

  • Autonomous self-drive marking
  • Semi-autonomous (operator-guided)
  • Fully manual operation
  • Ride-on compatible configuration

This flexibility allows it to adapt to different sites, staffing levels and marking preferences without needing multiple machines.

Precision at Speed

Dual GPS antennas support centimetre-level positioning, and the GPS-controlled spray arm maintains consistent line quality even at higher marking speeds. Over 100 sports field templates are available through the SWOZI app, supporting initial marking and accurate overmarking throughout the season.

The spray head offers tool-free line width adjustment, and swivelling guide plates allow marking right up to goalposts. The free-swinging front wheel supports smooth navigation during turns and circular markings.

Battery and Paint Capacity for Larger Sites

The SWOZI Auto is supplied with two 24V / 25Ah batteries as standard. The battery replacement system reduces downtime by allowing batteries to be swapped rather than waiting for recharge cycles.

Storage space accommodates up to two 10L paint canisters, supporting longer marking sessions without frequent refilling. The system remains compatible with major liquid paint manufacturers.

Where the SWOZI Auto Sits in the Range

The Auto sits above the SWOZI Pro as the fully autonomous option. If you want to remove physical pushing and shift towards supervised robotic marking, the Auto is the next step.

It is important to note that, unlike the Pro, the Auto does not offer a laser tracker option. It relies on GPS stability and RTK support where required. For environments with consistently restricted satellite reception, the Pro may remain the more adaptable solution.

Who It Suits

  • Stadiums and academy complexes
  • Local authorities managing multiple full-size pitches
  • Contractors scaling marking operations
  • Organisations facing labour shortages or time pressure

If you manage a single grassroots pitch and mark occasionally, this level of system may be more than required. If your focus is labour efficiency, repeatability and reducing physical strain, the SWOZI Auto is built for that workload.

Correct Setup and Commissioning

The SWOZI Auto is a self-driven GPS system, so proper configuration is essential. Groundtech supports initial setup, RTK configuration and operator guidance to ensure the machine performs as expected from day one.

We will also explain any GPS subscription requirements clearly before purchase, so ongoing costs are understood in advance.

Support for Larger Operations

For councils, stadiums and contractors, reliability matters. Groundtech can advise on battery planning, spare parts and practical maintenance routines to minimise downtime.

The battery replacement system, spray components and GPS hardware are all serviceable. Ongoing support ensures the system remains dependable across busy marking schedules.

Advice Across the SWOZI Range

If you are comparing the Auto with the Pro, we can help assess which model better suits your working environment. Where autonomy is the priority, the Auto is the right choice. Where maximum flexibility in restricted GPS areas is required, the Pro may remain appropriate.

Frequently Asked Questions About the SWOZI Auto

Is the SWOZI Auto fully autonomous?

Yes. In autonomous mode, the machine drives itself and marks the selected layout independently. The operator supervises via the tablet interface.

Can it still be used manually?

Yes. The Auto can switch between autonomous, semi-autonomous and fully manual operation depending on site conditions.

Does the SWOZI Auto support a laser tracker?

No. Unlike the SWOZI Pro, the Auto does not offer a laser tracker option. It relies on GPS and RTK support for positioning accuracy.

How fast can it mark a pitch?

The SWOZI Auto can operate at speeds of up to 7 km/h, depending on layout and site conditions.

Does it require a subscription?

If using RTK network support for enhanced positioning accuracy, a GPS subscription is required. Groundtech can advise on setup and ongoing costs.

Advantages of using the Robot Mower

On Time, Every Time

Operating autonomously for up to 24 hours a day, allowing each task to be completed at a time that best suits you and your schedule and alleviating the pressure on manual labour.

All Weather

The light footprint of the robot allows it to work on even the softest ground, retaining the playability and presentation of your facility no matter the challenges posed by mother nature.

Precision

Engineered to not only save on fuel and staff hours, GroundTech’s robotic solutions deliver a precise cut and quality finish worthy of first-class sport or picture-postcard experiences.

Quiet

The hood and main body of the robot is insulated to deliver efficiency and effectiveness with minimal noise – ideal for working at night or in built up areas with no disruption. 

Sustainable

The robot consumes up to 90% less energy than a standard mower. In addition, the clippings returned to the surface can also reduce the requirement for fertiliser and other chemical applications. 

Quality

Mowing more frequently and consistently will being multiple benefits to the turf surface. A ‘little and often’ approach improves presentation,  increases sward density & prevents weed ingress.
