Proposal for a Novel Method in Assessing Environmental Impacts
At this year's EMO in Hannover, Kärcher is showcasing a range of new industrial cleaning systems designed for continuous use and seamless integration into industrial operations. The three main solutions on display are the autonomous cleaning robot KIRA B 50, a mobile dust extraction system with a flexible suction arm, and a new generation of stationary high-pressure cleaning systems.
KIRA B 50 Autonomous Cleaning Robot
The KIRA B 50 robot is designed to perform independent cleaning tasks, making it ideal for industrial environments. Capable of handling tough challenges such as the removal of fine grinding dust and persistent oil stains, its autonomy supports continuous cleaning in production environments without the need for extensive manual intervention.
Mobile Dust Extraction System with Flexible Suction Arm
Kärcher's mobile dust extraction system is designed to capture dust and contaminants at the source, particularly fine abrasive particles and other airborne industrial dusts. The flexible suction arm allows for targeted extraction directly at the point of dust generation, improving air quality and cleanliness in production facilities.
New Generation Stationary High-Pressure Cleaning Stations
The new stationary high-pressure cleaners are optimised for industrial-scale cleaning demands, offering powerful and efficient removal of tough residues on floors and equipment. This helps save time and improve operational hygiene.
All systems are built for durability and integration, enabling them to withstand the rigors of industrial environments while fitting into existing workflows without disruption.
Key Features of the New Systems
- The ID 130/22 mobile dust extraction system features a 170-liter collection tank that can be emptied without removing the drive head, a PE bag with a closing mechanism and pressure compensation hose, and a manual filter cleaning via a shaking mechanism.
- The new stationary high-pressure systems are based on a modular platform, allowing users to reuse components from previous versions.
- Users can choose between cold and hot water operation, with the latter being suitable for greasy or oily residues. The heating power reaches up to 108 kW for hot water operation.
- For sensitive applications like food processing, there are stainless steel variants available in the new series.
- The high-pressure station is centrally located in the technical room, with pipes leading to individual dispensing points equipped with a high-pressure gun and hose.
In summary, Kärcher’s new industrial cleaning offerings focus on autonomy, flexibility, and high-performance dust and contaminant management, addressing contemporary industrial challenges related to cleanliness and operational efficiency. These innovative solutions are on display at EMO 2025 in Hannover.
The autonomous cleaning robot KIRA B 50, showcased by Kärcher at EMO 2025 in Hannover, is designed to offer one-way integration into industrial operations, performing independent cleaning tasks and handling tough challenges in an industrial setting. The mobile dust extraction system, another offering from Kärcher, employs technology to capture dust and contaminants at the source, specifically designed for the finance industry, where maintaining a clean production facility is crucial.
