Engineered to Outperform

Three fundamental advantages that make our robot the clear choice for serious hull maintenance

Powerful Cleaning Capacity

The only technology that can thoroughly remove calcified barnacles, thick-shell oysters and aged algae layers — ideal for heavily fouled vessels that have not been cleaned for a long time.

High Efficiency & Low Cost

Single unit efficiency reaches 400–800 m²/h, far exceeding manual work. Only electric power is required with no high-pressure water system, resulting in low consumable costs.

Reliable Structure & Easy Maintenance

No high-pressure pumps or easily clogged nozzles. Durable steel brushes — one set cleans 5–10 vessels — with a quick replacement design that minimizes downtime.

Frequently Asked Questions

How does the robot attach to different hulls?
It uses a flexible magnetic & vacuum adsorption system — powerful magnetic grip for steel hulls, vacuum suction for aluminum and fiberglass.
Will the steel brushes damage the paint?
No. Brush disc pressure feedback monitors contact in real time, preventing excessive force. Coatings remain intact even on delicate surfaces.
Can it operate in zero-visibility water?
Yes. Proprietary turbid-water cameras and obstacle-avoidance algorithms allow operation in ports like Shanghai with near-zero visibility.
What ports do you cover?
We operate at most major Chinese ports (Huanghua, Lianyungang, Rizhao, Yantai, etc.) and are expanding internationally.
How long does a full clean take?
Typically under 8 hours, depending on vessel size and fouling level. Cleaning can be scheduled alongside cargo operations where port regulations permit, with full safety coordination in place.
What's the typical fuel saving?
Shipowners report 10-18% fuel reduction after cleaning, which often translates to tens of thousands of dollars saved per voyage.
