Assistance Systems

Smart assistance for perfect slopes.

Die intuitive Bedienung: Einheitlich und trotzdem individuell

Einheitliches Bedienkonzept der aktuellen Generation auch im ParkPro. Ein Joystick ermöglicht die intuitive aber auch individuelle Steuerung im Parkbau. Im ParkPro können die Tasten frei mit Funktionen belegt werden – sowohl die Funktionstasten am Armrest als auch der Joystick. Individuell sind dabei 4 Fahrerprofile abrufbar.

Assistance Systems

Smart assistance systems make the difference—efficient, reliable, and well-thought-out. In the PistenBully, they ensure precise operations, noticeable relief, and added safety. Whether it's snow management, steering, tilling, pulling force, or rope handling—the systems intervene precisely where it matters in operation, bringing performance and control to a new level.

When technology makes the difference

True performance is created through synergy: operator experience, technology, and smart support. The assistance systems of PistenBully ensure that every movement is precise—resulting in perfect pistes, maximum safety, and noticeably less strain. With systems that go unnoticed—but make everything easier.

Snow Depth Measurement

See more. Drive better.

The highly precise SnowSat snow depth measurement supports the operator in detecting areas with low snow coverage and high-snow zones—with the patented, unique SnowSat LiDAR also in front of and next to the vehicle, even before crossing. This enables precise snow relocation and ensures highest quality in slope construction, while conserving resources and the environment.

All strengths at a glance

  • Identify snow-poor areas
    SnowSat reliably helps identify snow-poor piste sections and snow reserves.
  • LiDAR measurement before crossing
    The patented SnowSat LiDAR measures snow depths even before crossing – unique worldwide.
  • Distribute snow precisely
    Place snow exactly where it's needed to achieve the highest quality in slope construction. With SnowSat, you know where the snow is.
  • Save resources
    Efficient snow management reduces effort and saves material, energy, and costs.
  • Relieve the environment
    Optimized resource use protects the environment and ensures sustainable operational success.
AutoTracer

Steering. Leveling.

The automatic steering of the tiller in turns and automatic leveling on side slopes relieve the operator and ensure perfect pistes. The rear implement carrier with intelligent, active steering assistance guarantees maximum directional stability and maneuverability under all conditions.

All strengths at a glance

  • Automatic steering of the tiller
    The AutoTracer automatically steers the tiller in turns, ensures precise line guidance, and actively reduces the operator's steering effort.
  • Automatic leveling
    In cross-slope driving, the AutoTracer intelligently compensates for side inclines, keeping the machine stable on course – for maximum driving precision and fewer corrections.
  • Maximum tracking stability
    Thanks to active steering assistance, the driving line remains safe and stable even in changing snow conditions or steep terrain.
  • Improved maneuverability
    The rear implement carrier with intelligent control allows for precise maneuvering and facilitates work in challenging terrain profiles or tight spaces.
  • Operator relief in the terrain
    Automatic assistance noticeably reduces physical effort, enabling relaxed and focused work – even during long shifts.
ActiveWinch

Stay on track

The unique active winch steering system relieves the operator and ensures a precise driving line, even on the steepest slopes. The result: superior tracking stability and precise steering—even when operating at full winch pulling force and maximum thrust. And clean and safe operation – even where others give up.

All strengths at a glance

  • Maximum traction
    Optimal weight distribution, improved traction and climbing ability, enhanced safety. The ActiveWinch makes a difference not only on steep slopes.
  • Automatic co-steering
    The deflection of the winch boom supports steering and maneuvering, ensuring maximum stability even when traversing and turning on steep slopes.
  • Rope monitoring
    Continuous display of the remaining rope length on the screen and automatic detection of wire and strand breaks for increased safety.
  • Automatic rope unreeling
    The rope can be unreeled without active tractive force requirement – for easy handling and reduced wear.
  • Anti-icing protection
    A sensor detects ice formation on the rope guide at an early stage and reliably protects the system from damage.
  • Rearview camera
    The standard camera activates automatically when reversing and improves visibility – even in poor conditions.
  • Optional rope length up to 1,400 meters
    For large operating ranges and maximum flexibility on challenging terrain.
AutoWinch

Intelligent pulling power

The intelligent winch control synchronizes driving speed and pulling force. It automatically adjusts pulling force in case of deviations due to slippage. This reduces the strain on the cable as well as the strain on you – and ensures maximum traction and optimal driving stability both uphill and downhill.

All strengths at a glance

  • Synchronization of rope and driving speed
    AutoWinch automatically synchronizes rope speed and driving speed, adjusting the tractive force in real time in case of deviations due to slippage – for optimally coordinated movements.
  • Maximum driving stability
    The intelligent tractive force control ensures consistent traction and smooth driving lines both uphill and downhill – even on challenging terrain and under changing conditions.
  • Winch rope preservation
    By automatically adjusting the tractive force, AutoWinch protects the winch rope, significantly extending its service life – reducing material wear and costs sustainably.
  • Operator relief during operation
    AutoWinch noticeably reduces the physical effort required from the operator, enhancing driving comfort and increasing safety during daily operations.
  • Stable performance
    Whether on hard, soft, or variable snow conditions: AutoWinch maintains a stable track, ensuring controlled and efficient work even on steep slopes.
SlopeTracer

Perfect slope profiles

The SlopeTracer ensures the perfect adjustment of the tiller to the slope profile. Depending on the setting, the existing slope profile can be maintained, enhanced, or leveled out.

All strengths at a glance

  • Precise adaptation to the slope profile
    The SlopeTracer automatically adjusts the tiller to the terrain profile, ensuring precise results.
  • Flexible profile adjustment
    Depending on requirements, the existing slope profile can be maintained, enhanced, or leveled.
  • Consistent grooming quality
    Automatic adjustment ensures uniform slope surfaces under all conditions.
  • Operator relief through automation
    The SlopeTracer handles fine adjustments of the tiller, significantly reducing manual corrections.
  • More efficient work on slopes
    Less physical effort and reduced rework increase efficiency and save time.

Whether steep slopes, changing snow conditions, or tight passages – the assistance systems in the PistenBully ensure control, stability, and the highest precision even under challenging conditions. They optimize vehicle use, reduce strain on both the operator and the equipment, and make efficient work easier than ever before. Smart technology that improves every detail on the mountain.
