BATTERY TECHNOLOGY DRIVING PROCESS IMPROVEMENT THROUGHOUT THE INDUSTRY
The landscaping industry is increasing its focus on the integration of battery- operated equipment on the job. This shift has led to some equipment manufacturers developing advanced technologies to deliver new, innovative solutions. While this is impacting both gas and manually operated equipment, more productive and easier to use alternatives are revolutionizing professionals' daily work processes.
ADVANCED TECHNOLOGY
Significant development in technology integration has allowed many solutions to become more intelligent, powerful, and ergonomic, such as Mowers, Blowers, Chainsaws, and Pruning Shears. For equipment traditionally powered by gas, battery-operated alternatives eliminate the hassles of gas-powered solutions without sacrificing the power professional users require. Features like a simple push-button start to replace pull starting or the elimination of engine maintenance have reshaped landscape professionals’ daily work processes, driving efficiency and ease of use. Certain equipment manufacturers have focused on advancing electronic packages to push battery- operated equipment capabilities and maximize ergonomics, allowing some
manufacturers to develop equipment that is more durable and compact. There have also been sub-compact battery platforms introduced allowing battery equipment to have application- optimized designs, granting access to spaces previously only accessible with manual tools. These advancements eliminate the compromise many professionals currently face between the fatigue and slower speeds of manual solutions or leveraging battery- operated solutions that do not meet their needs. With the continued advancement of battery technology, common user frustrations, needs, and previous limitations are eliminated, driving process improvement across the professional landscaping industry.
