Business campuses, parks, schools and commercial properties often combine turf with paved areas and other fragmented spaces, while grass clippings, fallen leaves and light debris can affect the appearance and ongoing maintenance of the site. When mowing, sweeping and collection require separate machines and work steps, operators face additional equipment changes, coordination and repeated passes. At the same time, the requirements of a large commercial lawn differ fundamentally from those of a complex property or a professional golf course. The PUDU GT Series is built around these differences, with three <strong>purpose-built models</strong> that combine specialized mowing and collection systems with intelligent autonomous capabilities for distinct professional applications.</div></div>
