Our dedicated team has the experience and resources to provide you with the service you deserve.

A cobot is a collaborative robot and is designed to work alongside staff by taking on repetitive tasks like floor cleaning. A cobot frees up staff to focus on other high-priority tasks and to focus on delivering the best service possible.

Cobi 18 is designed to work on all hard flooring surfaces including hardwood, ceramic, concrete, PVC, marble, granite, artificial marble, epoxy and more.

Cobi 18 excels in its ease of use due to the simple user interface (UI) and the quick and easy steps required to deploy it. Check out our quick start guide to learn more below:

Depending on the cleaning power mode that is chosen, Eco or Max mode, Cobi 18 works 1.5 – 2 hours.

Depending on the complexity of the environment and the cleaning power mode selected, Cobi 18 can clean up to 800 sq/m per hour.

The cleaning path of Cobi 18 is 18.8 inches, or 48 centimeters.

That depends on the intensity of usage. The brushes, squeegee and dust mop will need to be changed at variable times depending on how often Cobi 18 is used.

To keep the cleaning performance of Cobi 18 at a high level, daily and weekly maintenance is required. In our Client Portal we provide maintenance videos demonstrating easy maintenance tips for Cobi 18. We also have a Maintenance Wall Chart available. The wall chart demonstrates, in one view, how to maintain Cobi 18.

Yes, you can create up to 6 cleaning routes per home location code. You can number them to know the difference. Cobi 18 is delivered with 10 home location codes. That means you can save 60 routes total.

When selecting the route, you can choose and switch to the power mode, ECO or MAX, for that route to use.

A custom route is mapped by the user based on the facility and the desired cleaning path. Once the route is mapped and saved, Cobi can be deployed to clean this specific route autonomously.

Auto-Fill mode allows the user to teach Cobi the perimeter of the space. Once the perimeter is mapped, Cobi will autonomously fill in the center of the space for cleaning. As with all routes, once it is saved, Cobi can be deployed to clean the entire route autonomously.

No, Cobi 18 is not capable of recording sound.

Cobi 18 needs the support from an operator to charge the battery and fill or empty the water tanks. Cobi 18 is not supplied with a docking station.

Cobi 18 can provide measurable savings by increasing cleanliness and efficiency in time. This is a matter of practical specifics and needs to be calculated. Our sales team can help you with this by using an ROI calculator based on credible principles. Through our fleet management software, we can provide usage information and target metrics that empower customers to understand the effectiveness and efficiency of their Cobi 18 fleet deployments. This information gives customers insights into the value and adoption of the solution.

Yes, once Cobi 18 is trained on routes, it can be deployed to run, and operate autonomously.  Cobi is a “cobot” meaning that while it runs autonomously, it requires a human to set it up and then maintain it. A human counterpart is necessary for charging the battery, cleaning the brushes, adding and removing water and replacing the dust mop. Cobi is intended to be an interactive experience that supports staff in executing daily cleaning tasks and accomplishing other higher-priority responsibilities.

Updates are pushed automatically over the 3G/4G network, so you do not have to worry about it. Email notifications are sent to you for each of these updates, explaining changes and how to ensure proper usage. Any ongoing Cobi 18 service is not affected, and the updates take effect automatically the next time Cobi 18 is powered on.

No, Cobi 18 runs only on 3G/4G networks to avoid other edge devices on customers’ secure network.

The highly sophisticated navigation system enables Cobi 18 to navigate around large obstacles (such as escalators), reflective surfaces (such as mirrors and glass), and sunlight and other bright light conditions.

Cobi 18 may tip or fall over if running on or too close to steps, angled floor, or uneven surfaces. Grooves between floors, grates or other lids, escalators, elevators, moving walkways, braille blocks, and thick rugs should be avoided while mapping routes. If there is a risk of Cobi entering such an area along its route, please either set a physical barrier to block it, or ensure Cobi is supervised while it is running. If Cobi enters a vertical or horizontal transportation mechanism (e.g., escalator, moving walkway) there is a risk of it falling on, blocking, or falling down the space and damaging the structure, or unit itself.

To avoid “Path is Blocked” and “Robot Is Off Path” situations, please make sure Cobi 18’s path is clear of obstacles such as chairs, trash cans, recycling bins, etc. Cleaning sensors regularly will help avoid false detections.

Cobi 18 gives you an overview of all the routes it runs, including when they were run, how long they took, and a map outlining both the trained and autonomously run routes. This provides you with confirmation of the cleaning operations to take the guesswork out of where, when, and how your floors have been cleaned

Admin users can simply view the details of their fleet from a remote location in i-SYNERGY. All you will need to do is log into your account and click into the sites you oversee. With i-SYNERGY you monitor your entire fleet, gain valuable insights, and empower your staff to expand their scope of work through our advanced technology.

Yes, you can switch to the time periods you want to see.

You can see several metrics including route maps, total run-time, time spent route training, time spent running autonomously, area covered (square meters/feet), distance covered (meters/feet), number of assists, type of assists and data for ROI information.
