What they do

Their core work

TEYME is a Spanish agricultural technology SME based in Lleida that designs and manufactures crop spraying equipment, with a strong specialization in vineyard applications. They have progressively moved from conventional spraying machinery into robotic and precision spraying systems for open-field agriculture. Their H2020 participation shows them contributing real-world agricultural machinery expertise to European robotics consortia focused on reducing chemical inputs and addressing farm labour shortages. They bring practical field-level knowledge of spray application, crop protection, and machine integration to research-driven partnerships.

Core expertise

What they specialise in

Agricultural spraying systemsprimary
3 projects

All three H2020 projects involve spraying technology — from the TEVINS vineyard sprayer to precision spraying robots in SCORPION and ROBS4CROPS.

2 projects

SCORPION focuses on cost-effective robots for smart precision spraying, while ROBS4CROPS addresses robotic crop protection with digital twins.

Vineyard-specific technologysecondary
1 project

TEVINS (TEYME EYE VINEYARD SPRAYER) was their SME Phase 1 project exploring smart spraying for vineyards specifically.

ROBS4CROPS includes digital twins and supervision/control systems, suggesting TEYME is integrating digital monitoring into their equipment.

Evolution & trajectory

How they've shifted over time

Early focus
Smart vineyard spraying
Recent focus
Robotic precision crop protection

TEYME's trajectory shows a clear shift from a traditional agricultural equipment manufacturer toward a robotics-enabled precision agriculture company. Their 2017 entry (TEVINS) was a single-company SME Instrument project focused on a smart vineyard sprayer — essentially validating a product concept. By 2021, they joined two large Innovation Action consortia (ROBS4CROPS, SCORPION) as a partner contributing sprayer hardware and field expertise to robotic platforms, digital twins, and autonomous crop protection systems.

TEYME is transitioning from a standalone machinery manufacturer into a component and integration partner for autonomous agricultural robot platforms — expect them to deepen work in robot-mounted spraying, sensor-guided application, and digital supervision systems.

Collaboration profile

How they like to work

Role: specialist_contributorReach: European9 countries collaborated

TEYME started as a solo coordinator on their SME Phase 1 project, then shifted to a participant role in larger Innovation Action consortia with broad European partnerships. With 23 unique partners across 9 countries from just 2 multi-partner projects, they are comfortable operating in large, diverse consortia where they contribute specialized agricultural machinery know-how. They are likely a practical, hands-on partner that provides field-tested hardware and real farming context to research-heavy teams.

Through ROBS4CROPS and SCORPION, TEYME has built a network of 23 partners across 9 European countries, connecting them to major agricultural robotics research groups and technology integrators. For a small Spanish SME, this gives them unusually broad European reach in the precision agriculture robotics space.

Why partner with them

What sets them apart

TEYME occupies a specific niche: they are a real agricultural machinery manufacturer (not a research lab or software company) that builds actual spraying equipment used in the field. This makes them a valuable bridge between robotics researchers who need proven spray hardware and farming end-users who need practical, field-ready solutions. Their Lleida location in one of Spain's most intensive agricultural regions gives them direct access to real-world testing environments for fruit, vegetable, and vineyard crops.

Notable projects

Highlights from their portfolio

  • SCORPION
    Largest single EC contribution (EUR 259,983) — focuses on cost-effective precision spraying robots, directly aligned with TEYME's core business.
  • ROBS4CROPS
    Broad consortium project connecting TEYME to the European agricultural robotics ecosystem, with digital twins and autonomous crop protection — signals their technology direction.

Analysis note: Profile based on only 3 H2020 projects with limited keyword data for the earliest project (TEVINS). The company name and project titles strongly suggest agricultural spraying equipment manufacturing, but no website was available for verification. The evolution narrative is plausible but draws from a very small sample. Confidence would increase significantly with company website data or additional project documentation.
