ROBOTIC CLEANING AND HYGIENE

Robotic systems used in direct and indirect food handling are designed to withstand many washdowns. The robot must be built to withstand a large amount of water being sprayed from a high-pressure, high-volume hose. To improve the flow rate of product spills and cleaning solutions, surfaces should be convex, rounded or sloped. Robots used in
