Turf Tank, leading robotic line marking company and winner of the 2017 SALTEX Innovation Award, is bringing the revolutionary Turf Tank One back to SALTEX 2022 (stand G085).
This year the company is bringing a new surprise to the show, the next generation robotic line marking software.
Visitors will have a chance to discover the latest features, that improve usability, make the process even faster and easier, and offer more customisation options.
The Turf Tank UK team is inviting everybody interested in the technology to visit Stand G085 and learn how Turf Tank could improve their line marking operations.
“We're dealing with an establishment where people are investing a lot of money sending their kids to a private school which excels in all areas of education on and off the pitch,” said Lee Marshallsay, Grounds Manager at Eton College. “So, I want to make sure that the pitches reflect that level of expectation. The Turf Tank robot brings a quality of perfomarnce and reliability that we expect.
Richard Hare, Head Groundsperson at Bromsgrove School, said with the traditional way of marking pitches, there was a lot of time wasted.
“Today we've marked five pitches, which would have taken our staff three-four days. With the robot, we've done that in an afternoon,” he added. “It's the future of line marking.”
Ewan Hunter, Grounds Manager at Nottingham Forest FC, explained that it wasn’t until his team used the GPS machine that it highlighted the fact that accuracy of the lines was a significant feature.
He said traditional methods meant lines often “creeped”. “And then they creep a little bit more,” he continued. “And then they creep a little bit more, and you don’t really notice the little bit of creeping until you get a GPS line marker overmarking the pitches that were already there.
“You realise that they’ve moved a considerable amount of distance, and it kind of highlights that the lines were actually in the wrong place.”
