Hand-built to order for your situation<\/strong><\/p>\n

Every DR SW90 is built by hand and was developed in Belgium. Not an off-the-shelf standard machine: the robot is tailored to your hall, floor, obstacles and special requirements. That is why you receive a personal quote instead of a fixed price.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

DR SW90 VAC 4.0 \u2013 autonomous industrial sweeping robot, developed and built in Belgium<\/h2>\n

The DR SW90 VAC 4.0 is a low-profile autonomous sweeping robot for daily floor maintenance in warehouses, production halls and logistics environments. Version 4.0 combines dozens of software and technical improvements that come directly from practical experience with end users, dealers and specialised integrators.<\/p>\n

The SW90 VAC 4.0 was developed for the real conditions in industrial buildings: fine dust, coarser loose dirt, narrow aisles, low racking, high ambient temperatures and zones where staff, forklifts and autonomous machines are active at the same time.<\/p>\n

With a total sweeping width of up to approximately 950 mm, a theoretical capacity of up to 1,000 m\u00b2 per hour and a hopper of approximately 30 litres, the SW90 can maintain large floor areas independently. The new Narrow Aisle Mode enables controlled navigation in correctly laid-out passages from approximately 1,180 mm.<\/p>\n

Built for the reality of warehouses<\/h2>\n

The SW90 VAC 4.0 was not developed around a controlled demonstration in a showroom. The software, dust extraction, filtration, cooling, charging technology and safety options have been further improved based on real applications in warehouses, production halls and logistics buildings.<\/p>\n

The result is a practical sweeping robot with a simple, robust construction focused on reliability, accessible maintenance and long-term daily use.<\/p>\n

Improved autonomous navigation<\/h2>\n

The SW90 uses LiDAR to scan its environment, build a map and carry out cleaning routes independently. The version 4.0 software stack has been improved in several areas.<\/p>\n

Key navigation functions are:<\/p>\n

    \n
  • LiDAR-based mapping and positioning<\/li>\n
  • Automatic route planning<\/li>\n
  • Independent execution of configured cleaning tasks<\/li>\n
  • Improved obstacle detection<\/li>\n
  • Improved positioning in narrow zones<\/li>\n
  • Narrow Aisle Mode for passages from approximately 1,180 mm<\/li>\n
  • Navigation with guidance and reference markers<\/li>\n
  • Improved recognition of the charging station<\/li>\n
  • More accurate approach to the charging contacts<\/li>\n
  • Improved automatic docking<\/li>\n
  • Automatic resumption of scheduled cleaning tasks<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    Navigation with guidance and reference markers can be used in zones where additional positioning information is needed, for example in long uniform aisles, open spaces or specific charging and passage points.<\/p>\n

    Narrow Aisle Mode<\/h2>\n

    The SW90 has a total sweeping width of up to approximately 950 mm. With the specially developed Narrow Aisle Mode, the robot can navigate through correctly laid-out passages from approximately 1,180 mm.<\/p>\n

    In this mode, speed, positioning and steering movements are adapted to drive through narrow zones in a controlled way. The passage width actually required still depends on bends, obstacles, floor condition, safety margins and the layout of the site.<\/p>\n

    Powerful dust extraction and filter system<\/h2>\n

    The SW90 VAC 4.0 combines mechanical sweeping with active dust extraction. The side brushes bring dirt to the central pick-up zone, after which loose dirt and dust are collected in the hopper.<\/p>\n

    The updated system includes:<\/p>\n

      \n
    • Active dust extraction<\/li>\n
    • High-quality filters for fine industrial dust<\/li>\n
    • Improved sealing of the air path<\/li>\n
    • Efficient collection of fine and coarser loose dirt<\/li>\n
    • Quickly accessible filter system<\/li>\n
    • Removable hopper<\/li>\n
    • Different sweeping brushes for a range of applications<\/li>\n
    • DR-developed air recirculation system<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

      The SW90 is intended for regular industrial dust and loose dirt. For hazardous, explosive or health-damaging substances, it must always be checked in advance whether the machine and filter configuration are suitable and certified for that specific application.<\/p>\n

      DR-developed air recirculation system<\/h2>\n

      The SW90 VAC 4.0 features a further improved air recirculation system developed by DR.<\/p>\n

      The filtered air is reused within the cleaning system. This makes more efficient use of the available airflow and blows less dust-laden air back into the working environment.<\/p>\n

      The benefits are:<\/p>\n

        \n
      • More efficient use of the available airflow<\/li>\n
      • Improved control of fine dust<\/li>\n
      • Less visible dust dispersion while sweeping<\/li>\n
      • Less dust-laden exhaust air in the working environment<\/li>\n
      • Compact filter system within the low machine construction<\/li>\n
      • Better performance in dusty industrial environments<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

        Larger battery and European charging technology<\/h2>\n

        The SW90 VAC 4.0 is equipped with a larger lithium battery for a maximum operating time of up to approximately 3.5 hours with active dust extraction.<\/p>\n

        A full charging cycle takes approximately 3.5 hours. When the battery reaches the set minimum level, the robot can automatically return to the charging station.<\/p>\n

        The charging technology is integrated in the robot and consists of a robust charging module produced in Europe in a metal housing.<\/p>\n

        Key features:<\/p>\n

          \n
        • Larger lithium battery<\/li>\n
        • Maximum operating time of up to approximately 3.5 hours<\/li>\n
        • Charging time of approximately 3.5 hours<\/li>\n
        • Automatic return to the charging station<\/li>\n
        • Improved charging station detection<\/li>\n
        • Improved automatic docking<\/li>\n
        • Integrated European charging technology<\/li>\n
        • Heavy-duty metal charging module<\/li>\n
        • Developed for reliable daily use<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

          Redesigned CPU cooling system<\/h2>\n

          For use in warm warehouses and production environments, version 4.0 has a completely redesigned cooling system for the central computing module.<\/p>\n

          The CPU is coupled to a specially milled aluminium heat sink. An extra-large fan provides active air movement and heat dissipation.<\/p>\n

          As a result, the SW90 VAC 4.0 is designed to operate stably at ambient temperatures of up to 45 \u00b0C, provided the machine is correctly maintained and the cooling air can circulate freely.<\/p>\n

          New milled LiDAR mount<\/h2>\n

          The LiDAR sensor is mounted on a new DR-developed mounting system of milled aluminium.<\/p>\n

          This construction:<\/p>\n

            \n
          • Supports stable positioning of the LiDAR<\/li>\n
          • Limits unwanted movement and vibration<\/li>\n
          • Better protects the sensor assembly<\/li>\n
          • Enables interchangeable top modules<\/li>\n
          • Simplifies maintenance and replacement<\/li>\n
          • Forms the modular mounting point for additional accessories<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

            Interchangeable sweeping brushes<\/h2>\n

            The brush portfolio has been extended for version 4.0. This allows the SW90 to be matched more closely to different floors and types of soiling.<\/p>\n

            Depending on the application, brush configurations are available for:<\/p>\n

              \n
            • Fine dust<\/li>\n
            • Coarser loose dirt<\/li>\n
            • Smooth-finished industrial floors<\/li>\n
            • Rougher concrete floors<\/li>\n
            • Warehouse and logistics floors<\/li>\n
            • Dirt along racking and edges<\/li>\n
            • Mixed soiling in production environments<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

              The right brush choice depends on the floor, soiling and desired service life.<\/p>\n

              ProxiVoice\u2122 spoken warning module<\/h2>\n

              ProxiVoice\u2122 is a DR-developed warning module that allows the SW90 to play spoken safety messages.<\/p>\n

              The warnings can be tailored to specific zones and applications, for example at crossings, doorways, narrow aisles or busy logistics routes.<\/p>\n

              Possible messages include:<\/p>\n

                \n
              • \u201cAttention, robot in operation.\u201d<\/li>\n
              • \u201cWarning, autonomous machine approaching.\u201d<\/li>\n
              • \u201cKeep the passage clear.\u201d<\/li>\n
              • Site- or customer-specific safety messages<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

                Key features:<\/p>\n

                  \n
                • Several interchangeable spoken messages<\/li>\n
                • Adaptable to site and application<\/li>\n
                • Increases the recognisability of the robot<\/li>\n
                • Suitable for crossings and aisles<\/li>\n
                • Supports interaction with pedestrians and internal transport<\/li>\n
                • Can be combined with additional visual warnings<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

                  Optional OmniMast360\u2122 safety module<\/h2>\n

                  OmniMast360\u2122 is a DR-developed modular safety mast made of real carbon fibre. The module increases the visibility of the SW90 in busy warehouses and zones with forklift traffic.<\/p>\n

                  The OmniMast360\u2122 combines:<\/p>\n

                    \n
                  • A blue warning spot on the floor<\/li>\n
                  • A powerful strobe light<\/li>\n
                  • Twelve selectable flash patterns<\/li>\n
                  • Increased visibility from different directions<\/li>\n
                  • Lightweight construction of real carbon fibre<\/li>\n
                  • One electrical connector<\/li>\n
                  • One quick-release clamp for fitting and removal<\/li>\n
                  • Modular mounting on the aluminium top structure<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

                    For low cleaning missions the OmniMast360\u2122 can be removed. The safety module can be refitted and reconnected within approximately 15 seconds.<\/p>\n

                    The module turns the SW90 from an extra-low cleaning robot into a more visible machine for busy warehouse aisles.<\/p>\n

                    Low-profile construction<\/h2>\n

                    The SW90 is designed to clean under low racking, machines and installations where traditional ride-on sweepers cannot reach.<\/p>\n

                    Depending on the chosen sensor and safety configuration, the machine height starts from approximately 355 mm. Removable top modules make it possible to adapt the machine to low cleaning zones or to applications where extra visibility is more important.<\/p>\n

                            Hand-built to order.<\/strong> Every DR SW90 is built by hand, was developed in Belgium and is tailored to your situation and special requirements. That is why we provide a personal quote instead of a fixed price: tell us about your hall, floor and schedule. <\/p>\n

                            The DR SW90 VAC 4.0 is an autonomous industrial sweeping robot developed and hand-built in Belgium. With a total sweeping width of up to approximately 950 mm, Narrow Aisle Mode from approximately 1,180 mm, active fine-dust extraction, the DR-developed air recirculation system and a maximum operating time of up to approximately 3.5 hours, the SW90 is designed for reliable daily use in warehouses, production halls and logistics environments.<\/strong><\/p>\n

                            Actual capacity, operating time, passage width and cleaning performance depend on the floor, degree of soiling, set speed, route, brush choice, filter condition, safety margins, fitted options and ambient conditions.<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":736,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":[],"product_brand":[],"product_cat":[72],"product_tag":[85],"class_list":["post-735","product","type-product","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","product_cat-sweeping-robots","product_tag-conditie-new-en","first","instock","shipping-taxable","product-type-simple"],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.dr-reinigingstechniek.eu\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product\/735","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.dr-reinigingstechniek.eu\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.dr-reinigingstechniek.eu\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/product"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.dr-reinigingstechniek.eu\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=735"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.dr-reinigingstechniek.eu\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/736"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.dr-reinigingstechniek.eu\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=735"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"product_brand","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.dr-reinigingstechniek.eu\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_brand?post=735"},{"taxonomy":"product_cat","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.dr-reinigingstechniek.eu\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_cat?post=735"},{"taxonomy":"product_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.dr-reinigingstechniek.eu\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_tag?post=735"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
