Model Amiga - The Modular Robot
At farm-ng we’re re-imagining farm tools with automation, sustainability, and accessibility in mind. farm-ng’s Amiga is an all-electric micro-tractor that is easy to adapt to any farm’s cropping systems. The Amiga allows growers to easily and repeatedly implement cultural practices, profitably, while reducing manual labor, maintenance and fuel costs. farm-ng and our partners are hard at work building advanced solutions that extend the Amiga, making it the future proof platform of choice for any farm.

Details
Dashboard
Modern vehicular control.
Daylight readable 4.3” touchscreen display - ruggedized and waterproof. Configuring the tractor, control preferences, monitoring state and performance - all at your fingertips.
Pendant
Wired Manual joystick control interface with rubberized backlit keypad. Waterproof and rugged, this CANbus enabled controller is pluggable anywhere on the tractor communication backbone.
Batteries
The Amiga uses proven lithium-ion battery technology borrowed from the E-bike industry, which provides 70% greater power density than lead-acid making them both lightweight and compact. Our battery packs weigh only 12 lbs each, and are housed inside aluminum-extruded cases which protect them from damage in hard-working environments such as the farm.
Range
The Amiga has a runtime between 3 and 8hrs depending on usage, payload, and terrain. High-drag applications such as towing or soil engagement consume more energy (2-4 hour runtime) than carrying harvest materials, even under heavy payloads (6-7hr runtime). Extend this with a second set of batteries for zero downtime.
