Who can upgrade my existing field sprayer for precision spraying?

We at BBLeap can upgrade almost any existing field sprayer into a high-precision spraying machine. With our brand-independent, modular LeapBox system and connected tools like LeapSpace and LeapEye, we turn your current sprayer into a platform for Excellent Spraying, Plant Precision Spraying, Hi-Res Spot Spraying and Real-Time Spraying. In this article you get a concise overview of what precision spraying is, which upgrade options exist, how to order, where to find more information, how an upgrade works in practice, and when it makes sense for your farm to take this step.

What is precision spraying in agriculture?

Precision spraying in agriculture means applying exactly the right amount of product at the right place and moment, often down to plant or 25×25 cm level. With LeapBox we control each nozzle individually, keeping droplet size, pressure and volume constant, even when you change speed or drive curves. Combined with LeapSpace task maps and, if desired, LeapEye cameras, you can spray on rows, in patterns, or only where weeds or gaps are detected. This replaces uniform broadcast spraying with targeted, data-driven applications that improve efficacy and cut waste. Learn more about the technology behind precision spraying

What precision spraying upgrade options are available for field sprayers?

We offer modular upgrade paths so you can start with Excellent Spraying and grow towards plant-level precision and real-time spraying. The core is LeapBox, which upgrades your sprayer to 100% accurate spraying with speed and curve compensation, no overlap and customizable spray patterns like row & pattern spraying. Adding LeapSpace enables Plant Precision Spraying and Hi-Res Spot Spraying using high-resolution task maps. With LeapEye cameras you can move to Real-Time Spraying based on AI detection models. Our configurator lets you build a package for broadacre or orchard machines and for your preferred level of automation. Explore all precision upgrade packages for your sprayer

How do I upgrade my field sprayer for precision spraying?

Upgrading your sprayer for precision spraying starts with a technical assessment, followed by installation of LeapBox hardware and, if chosen, LeapSpace and LeapEye. Together we check boom layout, nozzle spacing, tank sensors, hydraulics and existing controls to determine the optimal configuration. During installation we mount the modular valve blocks, cable harnesses, sensors and connectivity, and integrate with your terminal or provide our own interface. After that we calibrate flow, pressure and nozzle control, set up patterns or task-map execution, and train you and your team. From that moment you can work with 100% accurate, fully traceable spraying. Follow the full upgrade and installation guide

When is it beneficial to upgrade a field sprayer for precision spraying?

It becomes beneficial to upgrade when you want more control over dose, drift and overlap, or when input costs and regulations push you to do more with less. If you see stress in corners, over- or underdosing at speed changes, or waste on bare patches and tramlines, Excellent Spraying and Row & Pattern Spraying deliver direct gains. Farms facing high chemical or fertilizer bills, strict environmental rules or complex cropping (potatoes, onions, orchards, vegetables) gain even more from Plant Precision and Hi-Res Spot Spraying. User stories on our site show savings of up to 94–99% in product use and large improvements in crop uniformity. See when other farms chose to upgrade and what they achieved
