About LEMKEN

LEMKEN traces its family-owned agricultural-machinery business to 1780 in Alpen, Germany. The company designs and manufactures ploughs, cultivators, seed drills and crop-care equipment and supports them through an international subsidiary and dealer network. Its core business is implements and farm machinery, not a standalone robotics platform.

Autonomy enters through Combined Powers, a joint development programme with harvesting-equipment manufacturer KRONE. The partners have tested an autonomous diesel-electric drive unit with smart implements for cultivation, ploughing, seeding, mowing and forage handling. By linking the power unit and implement through a common control architecture, the programme lets the attached tool contribute operating information and task logic. Korthos therefore records farm autonomy as a secondary detail within LEMKEN’s broader equipment business.
