GPS guided spray system maximizes efficiency

November 7, 2018  By  Mike Jiggens



Nov. 7, 2018 – SiteOne Landscape Supply has launched the new LESCO Smart Guided precision spray system, featuring an easy-to-install GPS that maximizes labour efficiency, minimizes application error and optimizes chemical budgets.

The system has been designed to connect with most common sprayers and is able to save up to 75 per cent of initial costs compared to buying a new sprayer unit with a built-in GPS. The system offers:

• TerraStar GPS satellite technology that allows the system to spray within a two-inch level of accuracy, leaving no missed areas, overspray or overlap.

• Precise control of each separate nozzle to reduce overspray. If a nozzle is outside the defined application boundary, it will automatically turn off.

• Tracking of when and where certain products are sprayed to simplify documentation and record keeping. The feature also allows the system to remember and repeat boundaries after they have been driven once and saved.

“The LESCO Smart Guided system is about working more efficiently,” John Gertz, vice-president, category management – agronomics at SiteOne, said. “We’re focused on bringing solutions to market that help our customers get more done with less budget and succeed in a very demanding business.”
