Industrial Cleaning Machine Salinas
Used Industrial Cleaning Machine Salinas - Modern commercial floor scrubbers save time and are a cost efficient method of cleaning and maintaining large floor surfaces. Surveys reveal that labor expenses account for approximately 90% of the overall expense to maintain large floors surfaces. Commercial floor scrubbers provide a way to clean large areas quicker and with fewer workers.
Commercial floor scrubbers are available in several automated types. Technology has advanced and commercial floor scrubbers have robotic upgrades to simplify their design.
Floor scrubbers are equipped with an automated system which dispenses a cleaning compound. Behind the suction nozzle on the vacuum, a squeegee attachment can be located on automatic floor scrubbers to add to their cleaning capacity. These units also have separate dispensing and collection or recovery tanks. The cleaning mixture is held in the dispersing tank while the collection tank is home to the material gathered by the vacuum and the liquids accumulated there. This design keeps dirty and clean water away from each other to create a more hygienic option compared to traditional mop and bucket methods.
First, the automatic scrubber dispenses the cleaning solution and the scrubbing system is activated to loosen stains and dirt which are next suctioned into the collection tank of the machine when it passes over a location.
Automatic Floor Scrubber Head Types
There are three basic types of floor scrubber heads, square oscillating, cylindrical and rotary which are often called “discs”.
Rotary or Disk Floor Scrubber Head
The rotary or disk style floor scrubber head is the most common type of scrubber head. They operate in a circular motion with one or two round brushes or pads that push a cleaning solution into the floor.
Cylindrical Floor Scrubber Head
A cylindrical floor scrubber model relies on counter-rotating tube brushes which rotate at a ninety-degree to the floor. This type of design allows for better cleaning of irregular or uneven locations. The cylindrical floor scrubbing machines often have a collection tray found behind the scrubber head to enable easier pickup of small items such as pebbles or nails. It is possible to clean numerous types of flooring thanks to the variety of brush types available. Different brush styles make cleaning easier. Rubber, synthetic floors and textured tile surfaces respond well to soft bristles and concrete or grouted tile surfaces rely on harder brushes.
Square Oscillating Floor Scrubber Head
There is a flat pad on square oscillating floor scrubbing models that vibrate at high speed to clean the floor. This square design enables faster and easier cleaning for corners and walls. When used with a special stripping pad, square scrubber heads are able to strip floor finish from a floor. This combination additionally is helpful for cleaning vinyl tile flooring. The square pads oscillate at high speeds, producing higher agitation, resulting in extra cleaning power. They do very well when cleaning grouted tile.
Floor Scrubber Categories
There are four categories of floor scrubbers: Robotic, Rider, Stand-on and Walk-behind.
Walk-Behind Floor Scrubbers
The walk-behind floor scrubber units have a forward assist feature that softly propels the machine forward when the operator enables this item. The forward assist mechanism can help eliminate operator fatigue by enabling the operator to work longer in comparison to manual and traditional methods.
Stand-On Floor Scrubbers
Stand-on floor scrubbers offer an increased efficiency for greater areas than a walk-behind machine, while being more affordable than a rider floor scrubber. These machines are also typically smaller than a rider machine so can fit into areas a rider floor scrubber could not and have increased maneuverability. Stand-on units provide the operator with a better view compared to rider models and walk-behind machines.
Rider Floor Scrubbers
Rider floor scrubbers allow for the operator to be seated on the machine while operating. The rider models allow the operator to sit during the entire cleaning process, thus helping to reduce fatigue as they clean the floors. This design facilitates up to sixty-five percent more efficiency in comparison to the walk-behind models and allows large areas of the floor to be covered more efficiently.
Robotic Floor Scrubbers
Advancements in the field of autonomous robotics have created a new group of floor-scrubbing machines. Robotic floor scrubbing models were created by combining robotic self-control options with automatic floor scrubbing technology. Popular locations where commercial floor scrubbers are employed include retail, healthcare, education centers and in manufacturing locations. Some commercial robotic floor scrubbing machines are able to clean up to a 10,000-square-foot area in one hour.
New technology is developing all the time and the capacity for robotic floor scrubbers will only increase. Improved computing technology and better sensors are some of the noted areas expected to become even more efficient. Mobile robotic sensors enable today’s floor scrubbers to complete a wider detection range around objects and walls. This will enable the unit to be precise when determining its particular location in large locations including airports, convention centers and shopping malls.
The first models of residential cleaning machines operated in a random cleaning pattern. Nowadays, commercial robotic floor scrubbers can execute an accurate map for cleaning. This allows these robots to cover the entire floor in a predictable and consistent pattern each time they operate. Because of these advancing capabilities which allow these robotic floor scrubbers to know precisely where they have already cleaned and what areas they must still clean, they miss very few, if any, areas of the floor. Special sensors help the robotic floor scrubbers navigate around obstacles and people when they encounter any while operating autonomously.
Additional Floor Scrubber Options and Considerations
Hard to Reach Areas
It is difficult for floor scrubbing machines to reach certain corners, edges or around water fountains or similar fixtures. Typically, these locations would need to be cleaned with a mop and bucket if they could not accommodate the machine. However, some manufacturers now produce floor scrubbers with oscillating brush decks which allow the scrubber to reach these difficult areas.
Pre-Sweeping and Vacuum System Maintenance
Advanced models feature a pre-sweep option and vacuum system to be used before the wet scrub. This feature allows for removal of debris before scrubbing without the need for a traditional broom or dry mop. Loose items and dust are collected by the pre-sweep brush head and placed into the collection chamber located in front of the vacuums system. Blockages to the vacuum hose or motor are avoided with this pre-sweep brush head and collection design. Previously, the cleaning crew was required to dry mop or sweep the location before employing the floor scrubber to collect any dust and debris that might harm the machine. In the event a blockage occurs, the vacuum hose may need to be removed and cleaned. Occasionally, the vacuum motor may need to be blown out with compressed air to clear away any debris.
Environmental Options
Certain floor scrubbing models have environmentally friendly options. Features including water-saving systems, greywater reduction and safer soaps with fewer chemicals are available on some models. Some floor scrubbers are even able to clean without water and chemicals at all.
Solution Dispensing System Maintenance and Considerations
Damage can occur to the solution dispensing system if stripping solutions are added to traditional floor scrubbers. These solutions can be vacuumed up safely without causing damage to the machine. The solution system should be periodically flushed with a water and vinegar mixture to clean the system of any soap and calcium deposits that can accumulate in the solution system.
