Model comparison
Property teams usually need indoor floor care, exterior and facade work, and outdoor sweeping. The table shows which model covers which part of the building and the figure that sizes it.
| Area | Model | Key specification | Best for |
|---|---|---|---|
| Lobbies and corridors | ACR-0520 | 6-in-1, ~1,197 m²/h scrubbing, 4.5 h | Mixed hard floors; one-tap mode change. |
| 24/7 office towers | ACR-0520P | Station plumbed to water and drain, 3D LiDAR | Unattended cleaning without daily water handling. |
| Narrow corridors and lift lobbies | ACR-0350 | 400 × 400 mm, 60 cm aisles, under 60 dB | Daytime cleaning near tenants. |
| High-rise curtain walls | AFR-1500 | Up to 300 m, 220 mm obstacle crossing | Framed glass towers; 1,500–2,000 m² per robot per day in projects. |
| Mid-rise and complex facades | AFR-1200 | 22 kg, rope-suspended, >300 m²/h | Fast setup; fits in a van. |
| Concrete and steel exteriors | AFR-0400 | Vacuum wall-climbing, 0–90° surfaces | Spraying, pressure-washing and grinding modules. |
| Back lanes and footpaths | ACR-1300 | 1,300 mm, ≥4,700 m²/h, folds to 1,050 mm | Tight outdoor routes with automatic bagging. |
| Plazas and car parks | ACR-1380 / ACR-1200 | 150 L / 100 L hopper | Sweeping with dust suppression (1380) or 6–8 h runtime (1200). |
All figures from the product pages. Facade output in m² per day comes from manufacturer project records and includes rigging and drop changes.
Project records
These figures come from the manufacturer's AFR-1500 project records. Client names are withheld; project footage is on the AFR-1500 page.
An 88 m glass facade with 5 cm raised frames: about 19,000 m² cleaned in a 7-day operation.
An 80 m glass curtain wall cleaned entirely by robot.
Pilot on a 115 m flat glass curtain wall.
Pilot that crossed a 20 cm raised platform obstacle.
More than 200,000 m² of facade cleaned across projects in Foshan, Shenzhen, Hong Kong and Macau.
Project clips from deployments in the Middle East, South Korea and southern China.
Deployment path
Indoor robots, facade robots and outdoor sweepers have different setup work. We plan them together so one contact covers the building and the reporting runs through one fleet cloud.
Floor plans, floor finishes, cleaning hours and tenant rules for indoor areas; facade material, height, panel grid and roof anchors for exterior work.
Split the building into robot zones, manual zones and timing windows, such as lobbies off-peak and corridors overnight.
Anchor positions or counterweights, drop sequence, wind limits and manual touch-up areas are agreed before mobilisation.
Indoor robots are mapped and stations installed; facade crews are trained at the factory or on site.
Coverage maps and completion rates per zone go into tenant reports and service-level reviews.
Sizing checklist
These are the details that change model choice and fleet size for a commercial building. Partial answers are fine; we fill gaps during the survey.
Square metres of lobby stone, corridor carpet, office vinyl and car-park concrete, and how often each is cleaned.
When tenants are in, when the building is empty, and any areas that must be cleaned during the day.
Where a station can connect to water and drain, which decides whether ACR-0520P can run unattended.
Building height, facade material, panel grid, raised frames and photos of the roof edge.
Existing anchors and their rating, or whether counterweights or a gondola would be needed.
Plaza and road area, narrowest passage, kerbs and where collected waste is emptied.
FAQ
The AFR-1500 is rated for buildings up to 300 m working height with a 150 m rope as standard and longer rope on a project basis. The AFR-1200 suits lighter, faster setups, and the AFR-0400 climbs concrete and steel by vacuum adhesion.
Plan with 1,500–2,000 m² per AFR-1500 per day, from manufacturer project records. The 180–500 m²/h ratings are peaks on continuous facade and do not include rigging or drop changes.
The AFR-1500 rope-climbing system locks automatically and holds position. It also stops and holds on adhesion loss, over-speed, over-load or attitude deviation, with alarms on the robot and the ground panel.
Yes. The ACR-0350 runs below 60 dB and fits 60 cm aisles, and the ACR-0520P has quiet sweep-vacuum modes. Most buildings schedule lobbies off-peak and corridors after hours.
The ACR-1380 sweeps, vacuums, blows and suppresses dust with mist and carries a 150 L hopper. The ACR-1300 folds to 1,050 mm for back lanes and footpaths, and the ACR-1200 runs 6–8 hours on large open areas.
The fleet cloud records coverage maps, completion rates and water and power use per zone, which property managers use as evidence in service-level and tenant reviews.
