KR160E.A
Instructed by the Kress RTKn network, it navigates your lawn with centimeter-level accuracy. No need for boundary wire nor fixed reference antenna to be installed in the lawn. The dead reckoning algorithm ensures accuracy where lines of sight to the satellites are blocked by trees and buildings. Operated by the MAP (Mowing Action Plan™) technology, it efficiently manicures lawns up to 600 ㎡.
The Kress KR160E.A Mission RTKn 600 + OAS is a compact robotic mower designed for smaller lawns up to 600m². It runs without boundary wire, using satellite-based RTKn navigation and onboard obstacle detection to cut with accuracy and avoid collisions.
This model uses RTKn (Real-Time Kinematic network) positioning to stay within a mapped mowing zone, so there’s no need to install perimeter wire. It cuts in a defined pattern, not randomly, which leads to better coverage over time. The built-in Obstacle Avoidance System (OAS) uses sensors to detect and steer around objects without stopping or needing manual resets.
It’s ideal for smaller gardens with trees, planters, or furniture that might interrupt typical mowers. The dual-blade system gives a clean finish, and the brushless motor keeps noise low. It docks and charges automatically, and all controls are handled through the Kress app.

The KR160E.A is ideal for small gardens with tight spaces, trees, or obstacles. It’s ready to work out of the box, but a few optional accessories can improve reliability and simplify day-to-day use — especially in complex garden layouts.
The mower relies on satellite correction for accurate movement. If your garden has poor signal coverage (due to buildings or trees), a small RTKn base station may be needed for stable operation.
A compact garage or shelter protects the dock from rain and sun, helping maintain clean contact points and reducing long-term wear, especially in uncovered outdoor areas.
Because the mower uses obstacle detection, keeping sensors clean is important. A gentle cleaning cloth and blade kit help maintain both safety and mowing quality.
When mapping out the mowing zone in the Kress app, temporary markers or flags help guide the mower’s boundaries — useful if you have features like trees, patios, or curved beds.
GroundTech can install your KR160E.A for you — including RTK signal setup, charger placement, and obstacle avoidance calibration. Email [email protected] or use the form below to get started.
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.
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.
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.
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.Â
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.Â
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.
When you choose GroundTech, you not only receive access to the most innovative robotics on the market, you benefit from over 20 years of expertise in the grounds maintenance industry. That’s the GroundTech Difference.
