Armtrac Ltd

Armtrac Ltd Armtrac Ltd, based in Cambridgeshire UK, manufactures quality, safe and value for money mechanical equipment to counter the threat from Explosive Ordnance.

As an ISO 9001 company, Armtrac provides quality mechanical solutions using remote controlled technology and on some of the larger machines, an operator’s cabin to provide a “bird’s eye” view of clearance operations. All equipments use hydraulic quick hitch couplings to attach a variety of toolkits to the front or rear of the machine. This allows all Armtrac equipment to not only destroy EO in sit

u but also to sort, sift and mitigate the effects of EO & operate in secondary construction and engineering roles beyond their primary functions. Therefore Armtrac products are particularly versatile and have a second life both in and out of high threat areas. The company prides itself on producing innovative solutions to a variety of different threats and can design and manufacture for bespoke requirements. The Armtrac 20T Robot is the newest of its products. It is a remote controlled Small (Heavy) Unmanned Ground Vehicle designed to undertake high risk investigation and De-mining/C-IED clearance operations. This robust and flexible robot is fitted with a diesel engine that can operate for several hours without refuelling and can therefore support lengthy De-mining/C-IED operations. The Robot can be fitted with surface and sub-surface EO disposal equipment, real time X-Ray and other detection systems (including Ground Probing Radar) and an advanced manipulator for investigating and analysing the threat. Remote operations are supported by real time cameras and monitors. There are a number of sub-surface impact and engineering tools available with the Armtrac 20T including a Flail, Manipulator Arm, Minecomb and front loading Bucket/Fork Lift.

The newly published Clearing Cluster Mu****on Remnants 2026 report highlights the growing role of mechanisation and robotics in mine action.

During 2025, Ukraine deployed 297 mechanical assets to tackle explosive ordnance:

- 229 for demining
- 68 for ground preparation
- A further 15 mechanical and robotic systems underwent testing

But successful deployment is not determined by headline specifications alone. Terrain, vegetation, contamination, operator requirements and equipment certification all influence how effectively technology performs in the field.

Kosovo provides a useful example; on suitable open terrain, the Scorpion detection system achieved an average of 168m² per day, compared with 82m² per day using a conventional large loop detector. However, its performance remained constrained in steep or densely vegetated areas.

The message is clear: technology delivers the greatest operational value when it is properly tested, certified and matched to the task.

At Armtrac, we design adaptable mechanical demining and remotely operated systems for the realities of field deployment not simply controlled test conditions.

Last week, Ukraine unveiled proposals for its new National Mine Action Strategy through to 2033, placing greater emphasis on innovation, advanced technology and strengthening operational capability. It's another reminder that mechanical demining is becoming increasingly vital in making contaminated land safe, faster and more efficiently.

At Armtrac, we've long believed that combining proven engineering with adaptable technology is the key to safer clearance operations. From remotely operated systems to high performance tillers, flails and quality assurance tools, our machines are designed to tackle complex mine and UXO clearance challenges while keeping operators out of harm's way.

As global mine action continues to evolve, investing in reliable mechanical clearance solutions has never been more important.

Quality Assurance is just as important as clearance itself.

Even after mechanical ground preparation, buried ordinance can remain hidden beneath the surface. That's where the Armtrac Minecomb Toolkit plays a critical role.

Designed to extract potentially missed mines and UXO from depths of up to 50cm, the Minecomb provides an additional layer of confidence during post clearance verification and quality assurance operations. When paired with a tiller or flail system, it helps ensure contaminated land is thoroughly assessed before being returned to communities, agriculture, infrastructure projects or redevelopment.

In mine action, every recovered item matters. Effective QA doesn't just validate clearance, it helps protect lives long after operations are complete.

TILLER vs FLAIL — Which system delivers the advantage in hazardous terrain?

In humanitarian demining, choosing the right clearance tool can dramatically impact safety, speed and operational success.

TILLER SYSTEMS
✔ Deep soil pe*******on
✔ Effective in compact or rocky ground
✔ Excellent for anti tank mine clearance
✔ Consistent terrain processing depth

FLAIL SYSTEMS
✔ Superior vegetation reduction
✔ Fast surface preparation
✔ Ideal for softer terrain conditions
✔ Effective route and lane clearance

Modern mechanical demining operations often require both capabilities depending on soil conditions, contamination type, vegetation density and mission objectives.

The most successful clearance operations don’t rely on one solution they rely on selecting the right tool for the threat environment.

Armtrac systems are engineered to adapt to evolving operational challenges with interchangeable clearance toolkits and remote controlled safety systems designed for high risk environments.

Which system do you believe offers the greatest operational advantage in today’s demining landscape?

Every clearance mission carries risk, the question is no longer whether to use unmanned systems, it’s how effectively they’re integrated into operations.

Unmanned Ground Vehicles (UGVs) dramatically reduce operator exposure while maintaining full operational control. With remote ranges of up to 1 km.

Systems like the Armtrac 20T allow teams to conduct vegetation cutting, flailing, excavation and technical survey from a protected distance without compromising precision or productivity.

For larger scale clearance, machines such as the Armtrac 400 operate fully remotely up to 800 metres.

Why this matters:

-Reduced human exposure to blast threats
- Increased operational uptime
- Improved visibility through integrated camera and control systems
- Greater flexibility across terrain and threat levels

In high threat environments, separation equals survivability and survivability drives mission success.

Remote capability is not just an innovation, it’s an operational advantage.
