The questions buyers ask us most about WANJI autonomous mowers and mini excavators — pricing, order terms, operation, parts, warranty, slopes, output, batteries, certifications, dealer cooperation, and robotic mowing for solar PV vegetation management.
Short version first: we quote every machine per configuration and destination, both lines are in mass production today, and we answer every inquiry within 24 hours. If your question is not covered here, email info@wanji-imp.com or read the Field Notes blog for the longer, field-level explanations.
WANJI quotes per machine configuration and destination country. A robotic mower quote depends on the model — tracked hybrid or wheeled electric — the quantity and the application setup. Mini excavator pricing depends on the model class (0.8–2.2 ton), diesel or electric power, and destination.
There is no flat public price because freight and configuration differ market to market. Send your country, the machine and the application through the contact form or email info@wanji-imp.com, and we will return a detailed written quotation — every inquiry is answered within 24 hours.
Order terms and lead time are quoted per order because they depend on the model, quantity and destination port. We work with dealers, distributors and agricultural contractors from their first demonstration unit through to fleet orders, and the exact lead time for your configuration is confirmed in the quotation.
Both product lines are in mass production today, which keeps availability and repeat ordering predictable. Tell us your target delivery date when you request a quote and we will confirm terms for your market.
No robotics background is needed. The machine plans and follows its own mowing routes using RTK-GNSS navigation. You supervise and can take over at any time through a 7-inch touchscreen remote with live camera feed and manual override, or set working areas and check fleet status from a smartphone app.
Operation documentation and remote support come with every order, along with a spare-parts kit. Dealers receive product and after-sales support materials; the exact training arrangement for your order is confirmed when you place it. Most crews are running a machine confidently within the first day of field use.
Every machine ships with a spare-parts kit, and WANJI commits to a 72-hour spare-parts response on parts requests. Each unit is tested on the factory test area before dispatch, and after-sales support covers both the robotic mower line and the 0.8–2.2 ton mini excavator line. Support is built on four practical arrangements rather than a service-center promise alone:
• Remote running logs and early warnings. Each machine records motor temperature, battery cycle count and navigation signal quality; our engineers review the data from the back end and flag an abnormal trend before it becomes a breakdown — you often hear from us before you need to report a fault.
• Universal, locally-sourced parts. Screws, blades and fasteners are designed around standard specifications wherever practical, so routine items can be bought from a local hardware or parts supplier instead of waiting on a shipment for one small part.
• A dedicated engineer on video. From arrival, unboxing and assembly through field setup and troubleshooting, a named engineer works with you by video call and screen sharing to determine whether an issue is operation or hardware and to guide the fix step by step.
• Air-freighted parts when replacement is needed. Anything that cannot be resolved remotely is arranged by air freight in advance, keeping downtime short instead of leaving the machine idle for a full growing season.
Dealers order parts through the same channel as machines. When you contact us, include the machine model and the part required; we respond within the 72-hour promise.
Every WANJI machine ships under a 12-month limited warranty, factory standard, starting from delivery. The warranty covers the complete machine as delivered — including core components such as the electric motors, the cutting deck and the navigation module — rather than only the main chassis. Normal wear-and-tear consumables are handled per the written terms.
The full warranty wording, consumable schedule and claims procedure for your model line are provided in writing with the quotation and order paperwork, so coverage is stated clearly rather than promised vaguely. Every unit is tested on the factory test area before dispatch, a spare-parts kit ships with each machine, and the 72-hour spare-parts response backs the warranty period.
It depends on the platform:
• The tracked hybrid mower (T1-900A) is built for embankment and hillside work and handles slopes up to 40°.
• The compact wheeled mower (R3) is rated for slopes up to 20°.
• The wheeled R1 uses 4WD servo drive with in-situ zero-turn steering and is at its best on orchards, estates and municipal ground from flat to gently sloping.
For dams, levees, roadside embankments and steep terrain, the tracked slope mowing robot is the right tool. Our slope mowing field guide explains how to specify one.
The R1 wheeled electric mower is rated at 2,000 m² per hour, and its swappable LiFePO4 battery delivers up to 2 hours — about 4,000 m² — per pack. With spare packs swapped through an 8-hour working day, one R1 can finish roughly 16,000 m² (1.6 hectares) of mowing. Actual coverage varies with terrain, obstacle density and grass conditions.
The tracked T1-900A rates 3,000–4,000 m²/h and the compact R3 rates 1,500 m²/h, so larger sites can be sized for one machine or a small fleet. Send us your site area and we will help you size the machine count.
The R1 runs on a swappable lithium iron phosphate (LiFePO4) battery pack with up to 2 hours of continuous mowing — about 4,000 m² — per pack. Packs are designed to be swapped in the field: keep spare packs on the trailer and the machine runs all day without waiting for a charge.
The tracked T1-900A is a hybrid with around 2.5 hours of battery running and an optional engine for extended work. Replacement packs and service parts are available through the normal parts channel with the 72-hour spare-parts response.
WANJI machines are CE certified, and the engine-powered range meets EPA Tier 4 and EURO V emission standards — covering the documentation requirements for the European, North American and Australian markets where our machines already work.
Certification documents are provided with orders so dealers can complete local registration. If your market requires specific paperwork, tell us your country when requesting a quote and we will confirm the documentation for your models.
Yes — dealers, distributors and agricultural contractors are WANJI’s core partners, and our machines are already at work in 30+ countries across Europe, North America and Australia.
Dealer support includes product catalogs, real product photos and videos, demonstration guidance, spare-parts kits and the 72-hour parts-response promise. Both autonomous mowers and 0.8–2.2 ton mini excavators are available, so a dealer can build a full agricultural-equipment range from one partner. Cooperation terms are agreed per market — email info@wanji-imp.com with your company and country and we will send the dealer program details. Our dealer’s supplier guide walks through what to check before you sign with anyone.
Yes — solar farms are a strong fit for autonomous mowing. The inter-row corridors are structured, fixed and repetitive: routes are planned along the panel rows with RTK-GNSS navigation at ±2 cm, the mower holds a set margin from racking posts and combiner boxes, and our patented electronic-geofence virtual-wall technology keeps it inside the working block with no boundary wire to bury under the arrays.
LiDAR obstacle avoidance reroutes the machine around racking supports, trenches, cable runs and site personnel in real time. The machine primarily mows the inter-row space; areas below the lowest module edge are checked against panel clearance during site assessment. See our solar PV vegetation management solution page and the solar O&M cost guide for the full deployment approach.
Solar sites are rarely perfectly flat, and the range is built for that. The wheeled R1 features 4WD servo drive and is at home on flat to gently sloping graded ground; for berms, drainage swales and hillside arrays, the tracked T1-900A platform is purpose-built for sloped and uneven terrain and handles slopes up to 40°.
Rather than forcing one platform across the whole plant, site assessment maps the terrain and assigns wheeled or tracked machines per block. Our slope mowing guide explains the embankment safety logic in full.
Yes — large plants are multi-machine jobs by design. Each mower is assigned its own geofenced block with planned routes, and a single supervisor oversees the fleet through the 7-inch touchscreen remote with live camera feed and manual override, plus app-based fleet monitoring.
LiFePO4 packs swap in the field in minutes — so machines keep working through the day without charging downtime. On solar sites the primary machine is the tracked hybrid T1-900A at 3,000–4,000 m²/h with hybrid runtime for remote blocks, supplemented by wheeled R1 units (2,000 m²/h, ~2 hours / 4,000 m² per pack) on flat manicured areas. Fleet size and spare-pack count are sized from the site area and required cuts per season, and the 72-hour spare-parts response keeps the fleet running. Send your site details via the solar solution page for a fleet sizing recommendation.
Yes — this is exactly the scenario the wheeled R1 is built for. It replaces chemical weed control with physical mowing: no fuel burned on site, no exhaust or fuel leaks, and no herbicide residues in the soil, around the root zone or on the fruit. Electric drive is also significantly quieter than a petrol mower, so it does not disturb nearby residents or livestock areas.
That makes it a practical match for organic farms and certified green-production bases, where physical weed removal is a requirement rather than a preference. The machine works row by row under its own navigation, so the cover pass gets done without a crew pushing brush cutters through the trees. Our orchard mowing guide covers row setup in full.
The bottleneck of a single-battery electric machine is the charging stop: roughly two hours of work, then a wait. The R1 solves this with a removable LiFePO4 pack and a two-pack rotation — one pack runs on the machine while the spare charges beside it. When the first pack is depleted, the charged pack is swapped in and the machine keeps working.
The R1 is rated at 2,000 m² per hour, with one pack covering about 2 hours / 4,000 m². With packs rotated through the day, a roughly 33,000 m² (about 50 mu) orchard can theoretically be covered in under a full day, versus a large manual crew taking a full day or longer. Treat the figure as a theoretical benchmark: actual time depends on row layout, terrain, grass density and pack rotation discipline. See Q7 and Q8 for the per-hour and per-pack figures.
The R1 combines RTK positioning with vision-based navigation. Planned routes run in back-and-forth (boustrophedon) passes along the rows, holding a set margin so the machine does not crush saplings, strike tree trunks, or leave uncut strips between passes.
Once the working area and parameters are set, the machine runs its passes unattended, and on the gentle slopes and terraced ground typical of hillside orchards it holds its line rather than slipping. On flat, open ground the same navigation is what gives the ±2 cm RTK accuracy used in fleet work; in dense canopies the vision fusion supplements RTK where the sky view is restricted. The receiver itself is detailed in Q17.
WANJI mowers use the NAV-L3 RTK navigation unit, a multi-constellation, multi-frequency GNSS receiver (including BeiDou) with RTK. It delivers positioning accuracy of 2 cm and heading accuracy of 0.2° — a first-tier figure for a high-grade MEMS-based solution, and sufficient for the vast majority of high-precision field operations.
Connectivity and setup are built for field conditions:
• Built-in 4G. Machine data is returned to the back end in real time, which is the link behind the remote running logs and early warnings in Q4. The unit also supports USB RNDIS: connected to a computer it behaves as a 4G network adapter, putting a Linux or Windows industrial controller online even at remote field sites.
• Phone-app configuration. Parameters are set in minutes from a smartphone connected directly to the unit’s local hotspot — no need to carry a laptop into the field or wire up for debugging.
