The INFiNiSystem30 from Advanced Turf Technology (ATT) has won the Horticulture Week What Kit? Pedestrian Mower of the Year award for 2015.


The INFiNiSystem30 from Advanced Turf Technology

Announced in December, the 30inch pedestrian unit was chosen as the winner from a shortlist of 8 machines.

The pedestrian award citation said that although the concept had been around for a few years, with the 22" and 26" models, "building it in a bigger size is not as simple as just stretching the machine. It means new calculations and fresh engineering. ATT has done well to present a 30" unit that is ideal for pitches and large areas of grass. The machine is really well built and has the advantages of low vibration, low noise and no emissions when the battery is used. The way the head floats independently of the traction unit is brilliant. It is precision engineering giving precision mowing. But it is also more than a mower - it's a complete system and very well thought out . .  they have thought of everything and yet it shouts simplicity."

First previewed at BTME 2015, the INFiNiSystem30 was developed to cater for the needs of the Groundsman. A 'true hybrid', it can be driven either fully electrically via a single or double battery module or by hybrid electric via an engine generator configuration.

Celebrating the best inprofessional machinery, What Kit? Mower of the Year Awards were also awarded to mowers in ride-on and tractor-mounted/towed categories.
