Development Prospect of Lawn Mower

The lawn mower, also known as a weed cutter, grass cutter, or lawn trimmer, is a machine used for trimming lawns and vegetation. Lawn mowers are widely used in private gardens, public green areas, and professional lawn maintenance. The market demand for lawn mowers accounts for a large proportion of the total demand for landscaping machinery products. Lawn mowers can be divided into gasoline-powered, AC-powered, and DC-powered categories according to the power source.

From the various categories of lawn mowers, gasoline mowers are powered by traditional gasoline engines and have the advantages of high power and good cutting effect. However, with the introduction of relevant environmental protection policies, emission problems of fuel engines will add many restrictions to its development. AC-powered lawn mowers are powered by AC motors and have lower costs but require power connections, which makes them less portable. DC-powered lawn mowers are powered by DC motors and rechargeable batteries, making them convenient to use, efficient, low-noise, and energy-saving. Among them, the lithium-ion DC lawn mower is powered by lithium-ion batteries and mostly uses brushless DC motors. With the accumulation of technology in the lithium-ion battery industry, lithium-ion lawn mowers are currently developing towards high power, long battery life, smart features, and better market compatibility.

The subdivided market of lawn mowers includes lawn mower robots, which are the main direction of future development. However, the overall penetration rate of the lawn mower robot industry is low and still in the initial stage. There are still significant pain points in some markets that have not been resolved, and technology and the core functions of products are the main driving factors at this stage. When product performance gradually improves and pain points are resolved, the overall growth rate of lawn mower robots will be even higher than current estimates.
