Advance, the brand known and trusted to introduce productivity-enhancing innovations in the commercial cleaning market, proudly introduces the Advance Liberty A50 Autonomous Scrubber. The Advance Liberty A50, designed in partnership between Nilfisk and Carnegie Robotics, LLC, a leading provider of advanced robotics sensors and software, is specifically designed to leverage today’s most advanced autonomous technologies to make commercial floor care in such settings as retail, hospitality, education, healthcare, and more, more productive, safer and easier than ever.
“We are thrilled to launch the most advanced and easiest to
use scrubber/dryer in the commercial floor care industry,” said Jonas Persson,
president and CEO of Nilfisk. “Nilfisk has an unprecedented legacy of bringing
ingenuity and innovation to market by way of products that improve and advance
the industry. The Advance Liberty A50 is our most important product innovation
yet, and it will set the standard and lead the way for intelligent equipment
going forward in the commercial cleaning industry.”
The Advance Liberty A50 is the cleaning industry’s only
stand-on scrubber/dryer that can be operated autonomously or manually,
providing cleaning professionals with unprecedented flexibility based on their
cleaning needs. With its proprietary sensor suite, software and camera, the
scrubber/dryer recognizes unknown obstacles as small as a tennis ball and then
automatically maneuvers around them, making the Advance Liberty A50 safe to use
in open or congested spaces. And, a proprietary mix of technology, including
cameras, sensors and lasers, allow the Advance Liberty A50 to accurately track
its cleaning path and clean close to obstacles and walls.
"Carnegie Robotics is excited to partner with Nilfisk
to bring the most innovative and advanced scrubber to the commercial cleaning
market,” said Steve DiAntonio, CEO of Carnegie Robotics. “We've adapted
military and space grade technologies to provide the Advance Liberty A50
scrubber with state-of-the-art perception and intelligent navigation that
deliver safe and reliable floor cleaning. At the same time, we’ve engineered a
simple to use interface that enables flexible and efficient operation.”
The Advance Liberty A50 will be the first product to launch
under Nilfisk’s recently announced The Horizon Program, a pioneering global
program that will deliver the most intelligent and technologically advanced
cleaning solutions in the industry. Working with Carnegie Robotics, Nilfisk’s
Horizon Program is a strategic, long-term initiative to launch multiple
products that will provide the full spectrum of autonomous capabilities.
Nilfisk’s work with Carnegie Robotics is the only partnership in the industry
that combines the highest levels of expertise in robotics and commercial
cleaning to design and develop state-of-the-art autonomous cleaning solutions
that truly meet the needs of the commercial cleaning industry.
Nilfisk and Carnegie Robotics will officially launch the
Advance Liberty A50 scrubber in the spring of 2017.
