Big Ox Ai-32 Autonomous Scrubber

An autonomous ride-on scrubber built to run a full shift with no human intervention. Its cylindrical deck scrubs and sweeps in one pass, and it self-docks to refill water, dilute detergent, drain recovery and recharge, so it can clean 13+ hours a day or all night. No subscription fees. Sold, deployed and supported by the FCE factory-trained team.

Runs an Entire Shift Unattended

The Ai-32 self-docks for fresh water, soap dilution, recovery drain and safe charge, with five layers of redundant fill safety: level gauge, float switch, timer, bypass and auto close valve. That is what makes true lights-out cleaning possible.

Fewer “Help Me…” Requests

When the Ai-32 meets an obstruction it recalculates its route, reverses and carries on cleaning without a person intervening. Rear wheel drive gives it the traction to climb ramps other autonomous scrubbers stall on.

Layered Array Sensors

Three RGB-D cameras, four 3D cameras and a 3D lidar overlap to recognize low obstacles a single sensor misses, down to a loose forklift fork lying on the floor. Better recognition means fewer interruptions and more cleaning per hour.

About the machine
  • The Ai-32 is an autonomous ride-on floor scrubber with a 32-inch cylindrical cleaning deck. It navigates by 3D lidar and a camera array, scrubs and sweeps in a single pass, and returns to its own dock to refill, drain and recharge without an operator. FCE sells, deploys and supports it with factory-trained technicians.

  • The brochure rates it at 13+ hours per day at 60% utilization when paired with its 220 VAC docking station. Because it self-docks for water, detergent and charge, it can run an entire shift, or overnight, with no human intervention.

  • Warehouses, distribution centers and staging areas: wide aisles and large open floors. Rear wheel drive gives it the traction to climb ramps, and it can run lights-out in unoccupied space.

  • It recalculates the route, reverses if needed and continues cleaning on its own. Three RGB-D cameras, four 3D cameras and a 3D lidar overlap so it recognizes low obstacles, down to a forklift fork lying flat on the floor.

Docking & facility requirements
  • It handles four jobs automatically: fills fresh water, doses and dilutes detergent, drains the recovery tank and charges the machine safely. Solution filling has five redundant safety layers: level gauge, float switch, timer, bypass and auto close valve.

  • Plan for a 10 by 20 foot dock area. The dock station runs on 220 VAC, so unlike the smaller robots in our line-up this one does need a 220 V circuit rather than a standard outlet.

  • No. The Ai-32 carries no monthly software or fleet-management fee. Fleet management, scheduling, task edits and live tracking are included in the phone app.

Pricing & next steps
  • Request a quote and our robotics team will price it for your facility, including the docking station and the 220 V requirement. Purchase, lease and rental options are available.
