Agriculture is going smart. Autonomous farming kits, which are simple to install on tractors, harvesters, and more, are becoming increasingly popular among farmers. They can be installed on existing farm equipment to plow, furrow, sow, and harvest fields at precise intervals and shapes based on preset inputs. Farmers can reduce work hours and fatigue from operating machinery, save on fuel costs, and increase production by using farmland more efficiently.

Leverix is a company that distributes the Swedish Sveaverken’s autonomous farming upgrade kit to Korea at a reasonable price with the best after-sales service. It runs 38 stores nationwide at the moment. 

What makes this kit a favorite among farmers across the country?

It works in all conditions

Sveaverken was founded in 1911 and is a robotics company with over 30,000 customers around the world. It is a global company that produces industrial robots, factory automation systems, and unmanned robots. The company’s autonomous farming kit consists of a high-precision GPS receiver, a traditional motor-controlled steering wheel, and a 10.1-inch control display. The kit can be installed on farming machinery in a simple way in as little as 30 minutes, and allows for remote control as well as remote upgrades. Using the company’s self-developed high-precision GNSS RTK technology, it boasts the highest positioning accuracy of ±2.5cm. The kit can be used in a variety of applications, including tilling, harrowing, seeding, spraying, harvesting, and planting, and it maintains precise straightness while driving forward, backward, around curves, making optional u-turns, and in sloping environments.

The Kit’s intuitive, large touchscreen control display is available in Korean and allows users to see in real time where their farm equipment is located, where jobs have been completed, and various alarms. 

All in one from set up to training and maintenance

Leverix provides all things needed as a package from set up to training and maintenance. 

“We’ve been distributing the kit for about two years now. There are several other companies related to autonomous farm machinery, but Sveaverken is the best-selling product, selling about one unit a day” says Leverix CEO Minsung Kang. A kit costs around 7.7 million won. “Installing the kits reduces fuel costs, increases crop productivity, and increases farmers’ incomes. Farmers can immediately see how much more they can farm with the kits and how much they can save on fuel costs” says Kang. 

The kit has no backlog and performs well. In addition to providing set up and training, the company also offers a quick repair service. The manual is also being uploaded on company’s Youtube channel so that farmers can see it anytime anywhere for reference.

“With Sveaverken kits selling so well around the world, we are committed to training and aftercare in Korea” says Kang.
