Ship hull cleaning robot
A 70 kg crawler for hulls and tank internals: 20 m cleaning radius from one set-up, working heights to 32 m on the custom X series, and 95%+ wastewater recovery for dockside compliance.
The ship hull cleaning robot takes the magnetic crawler to the dry dock. Its published specification: dimensions of 700 x 440 x 780 mm, whole machine weight of 70 kg or less, mobile speed of 12 m/min unloaded and 4–8 m/min while operating, a cleaning radius of 20 metres with the low-pressure nozzle, a maximum operating height of 32 metres on the customised X series, and a wastewater recovery rate of 95% or more — the figure that decides whether a yard can use it inside its environmental permit.
The stated core advantages follow the line's pattern: a safety breakthrough (no riding crews on hull staging), efficient operating ability, environmental protection and resource control, and intelligence with adaptability across surfaces. The published application scenarios extend beyond hulls: the robot is also used for cleaning oil stains on the inner walls of storage tanks and pipelines, supporting explosion-proof design and high-risk environmental operations — one crawler covering dock and tank-farm work.
For shipyards, the planning numbers are the travel speeds and the 20 m radius: fewer repositioning set-ups per hull side than a small crawler, and a 70 kg machine that a small crew can deploy. Compare the climbing wall robot if your work is mostly jetting to a preparation grade rather than cleaning.
Core advantages on record
- Safety breakthrough — removes riding crews from hull staging work.
- Efficient operation — 12 m/min transit, 4–8 m/min working speed, 20 m cleaning radius.
- Environmental control — >=95% wastewater recovery for dockside compliance.
- Adaptability — hulls, tank inner walls and pipelines; explosion-proof design supported.

What to confirm for your project
- The 32 m height figure belongs to the customised X series — confirm the variant when your vessels' freeboard demands it.
- Confirm your yard's discharge rules against the 95%+ recovery figure before the docking plan is fixed.
- Ask about minimum order requirements and lead time for your proposed configuration.
Buyer questions
What surfaces can it clean?
Ship hulls are the lead application; the published scenarios also include oil-stain cleaning on the inner walls of storage tanks and pipelines, with explosion-proof design supported.
How much area does one set-up cover?
The cleaning radius is 20 metres (low-pressure nozzle), so one placement covers a 40 m span of hull side before repositioning.
Is the wash water contained?
The wastewater recovery rate is published at 95% or more — the starting point for your yard's environmental plan.
