Floor Cleaning

Revolutionize facility management with precise autonomous cleaning. Our floor solution delivers top-notch hygiene, slashes costs, and frees up staff for important tasks using smart SLAM navigation.

Floor Cleaning

Why Automate Floor Cleaning?

Cost Reduction

Cut labor costs by automating routine cleaning—hit ROI in just 12 months.

Consistent Quality

Our precise mapping ensures 99.9% coverage, never missing a spot or taking shortcuts.

24/7 Availability

Schedule cleaning for off-hours or nights to keep daily operations humming.

Water Conservation

Smart fluid systems reduce water and chemical use by up to 70% compared to manual methods.

Real-time Analytics

Monitor fleet status, maps, and supplies remotely via our cloud dashboard.

Enhanced Safety

Safety first: Our ISO-compliant obstacle avoidance keeps people and equipment safe by minimizing slip risks.

Intelligent Navigation Workflow

Our Floor Cleaning app uses a smart layered sensor system. It starts things off with a SLAM scan to build a precise digital map of your space.

Once mapped, just set no-go zones and schedules. LiDAR and 3D cameras detect obstacles like people or forklifts, rerouting on the spot to stay safe.

Low on water or battery? The robot heads straight back to the dock, refills or recharges, and picks up right where it left off.

Workflow

Where It's Used

Warehousing & Logistics

Handling massive square footage with concrete flooring.

  • Dust control to protect inventory
  • Operations during night shifts
  • Narrow aisle navigation

Retail & Shopping Malls

High-traffic environments requiring pristine aesthetics.

  • Glass-like finishes on tile/terrazzo
  • Immediate spill response
  • Safe operation around shoppers

Healthcare Facilities

Critical hygiene standards and quiet operation.

  • Disinfection capabilities
  • Low-decibel cleaning modes
  • Cross-contamination prevention

Airports & Transport Hubs

Large open spaces with dynamic crowds.

  • Rapid coverage of terminals
  • Security-compliant navigation
  • Asset tracking and reporting

Frequently Asked Questions

Is the robot safe to operate around humans? +

Yes! Our robots feature layered safety with LiDAR, depth cameras, and bumpers. They spot obstacles and stop or detour instantly, meeting ISO 13849 standards.

What types of flooring are supported? +

Our app handles all sorts of hard floors—concrete, epoxy, tile, terrazzo, marble, vinyl. Skip carpets or rough outdoor surfaces.

How does the robot handle water refilling? +

Pair it with a workstation for automatic drain and refill. Otherwise, manually swap tanks in under 2 minutes.

Does it require an internet connection? +

All navigation and safety run onboard the robot. Internet is only needed for monitoring, updates, and fleet insights.

What is the battery life? +

Runtime is 4-6 hours depending on model and cleaning intensity. Opportunity charging tops it up during breaks to extend shifts.

Can it clean multiple floors? +

Yes. Multi-map support is built right in. Add elevator integration to handle floors independently; otherwise, move it manually and switch maps.

Does it clean edges and corners? +

Yes! Edge-cleaning modes plus side brushes pull debris from corners right into the scrub path.

How difficult is the setup process? +

'Teach and Repeat' makes it easy: Drive once to map, then draw zones on your tablet. A 10,000 sq ft space maps in under 2 hours.

What maintenance is required? +

Daily: Dump dirty water, rinse the squeegee. Weekly: Clean sensors, check brushes. Alerts let you know when to replace parts.

What is the Return on Investment (ROI)? +

Facilities doing daily cleaning see ROI in 12-18 months from labor savings, better hygiene, and lower chemical use.
