Husqvarna Adds Dew Removal Attachment to Automower 580L for Golf Greens

Husqvarna has introduced a brush attachment that turns its Automower 580L EPOS robotic mower into an autonomous dew remover for golf greens, expanding the robotic mower's role beyond cutting grass.

The accessory replaces the mower’s cutting disc and is designed to clear moisture before regular course maintenance begins. Husqvarna says the system could ease the early-morning workload for golf course crews while helping prepare drier, more consistent putting surfaces.

Courses configure work areas on individual greens and connect them with transport paths. The robot then travels between those areas autonomously, lifting the brush during transit to help reduce the risk of cross-contamination between surfaces.

A New Job for an Existing Robot

The attachment gives courses another use for the 580L EPOS, which already handles mowing on fairways and approaches.

Husqvarna says dew can accumulate before crews begin their shifts, adding another task to an already busy morning schedule.

The starter kit includes the brush, a holder and mounting screws. Husqvarna lists a quick-mount design for switching between the cutting disc and dew removal attachment.

Disease Management Research Is Ongoing

Husqvarna also plans to use the system in an international study examining alternative ways to manage dollar spot, a turf disease that affects golf courses and residential Bermuda lawns.

The ongoing research includes work in Sweden, Denmark, the United States and Germany.

Pricing and Availability

Husqvarna’s U.K. product page lists a March 8, 2027, launch date and a suggested retail price of 229 pounds (about $309), including value-added tax, for the starter kit.

U.S. pricing and a release date for the accessory have not been announced. The Automower 580L EPOS is available in the U.S. for suggested retail price of $8,599.99.
