RobotPlusPlus has launched its HighMate C20 Cargo Hold Cleaning Robot this week at the SMM 2024 conference in Hamburg, Germany.
The robot cleaner improves cargo hold cleaning by ensuring reliable and efficient operations in most sea conditions, and can reach up to 95% of the hold’s surface. It offers a more consistent and powerful system, protecting seafarers from the dangers of manual cleaning at heights.
RobotPlusPlus is an engineering-led company developing working-at-height robots to provide efficient and environmentally friendly solutions while guaranteeing a safer workplace.
At SMM 2024, the company is displaying the HighMate C20 at the maritime industry’s leading global trade fair, demonstrating how its versatile design provides solutions for all types of ships, along with other offerings for the shipbuilding and repair industry. RobotPlusPlus’s strategic partner from Germany, MontiPower, will be presenting the co-developed robotic HighMate Prepper solution for the welding, inspection and bristle blasting.
The HighMate C20’s five powerful 500-bar high-pressure nozzles clean at a one-metre width with 95% coverage. Its maximum working pressure is 100 times the pressure of a traditional fire hose, and it can clean up to 500㎡per hour.
The robot is easy to operate, and most seafarers can learn its basic functions in ten minutes or less. In launching the HighMate C20 at SMM, RobotPlusPlus hopes to attract like-minded companies that contribute to improving maritime shipping worldwide.
“We’re incredibly excited to launch the C20 at SMM in front of global leaders from the maritime industry,” said CEO and Founder Hua-yang Xu. “We relish the opportunity at this distinguished trade conference to also develop new partners worldwide. At RobotPlusPlus, we’ve always been committed to innovation in the maritime industry and enjoy collaborating with like-minded partners in this space.”
