Claims7
A trimming system for trimming around stationary objects, comprising:
- a carrier vehicle;
- a rotary trimming attachment extending from the carrier vehicle, the rotary trimming attachment further comprising a cutting head assembly slidably coupled to a carrier assembly;
- wherein the cutting head assembly has at least two counter-rotating blades, at least one rotator motor configured to rotate the cutting head assembly about a cutting head central axis, at least one blade drive motor configured to drive the at least two counter-rotating blades, and at least one lateral actuator configured to move the cutting head assembly relative to the carrier assembly;
- and
- an integrated control system for the carrier vehicle and the rotary trimming attachment comprising at least one controller further comprising a non-transitory computer-readable storage medium configured with instructions executable by one or more processors to cause the one or more processors to receive input from a plurality of sensors and transmit conditioned control signals to a plurality of actuators on the carrier vehicle and rotary trimming attachment while trimming around at least one stationary object.
