What happens if The Range Picker unit stops working?
The Range Picker is about efficiency and round the clock work, so at 3mph there is a lot less unnecessary wear and tear on the drive system and picking system than let's say the old-school vehicles used to collect balls on the golf range. The Range Picker won't be gunning it down the range at 15 MPH to see if it can shave time off it's last record.
In the rare case that a part needs to be replaced, we do keep spare parts in-house, so they can easily be shipped anywhere in the US.
OnPar Automation handles support for the Range Picker. Simply call us at:
720-800-0190 | Extension 3
We will be able to log into your robot remotely and diagnose any issues. If spare parts are needed, we can usually send them out the next business day.
