Industrial Cleaning Machine San Diego
Used Industrial Cleaning Machine San Diego - Save hours of time by relying on commercial floor scrubbers to provide an efficient method for cleaning and maintaining floors in an efficient manner. Did you know that according to surveys, roughly ninety percent of the maintenance for flooring expenses is related to labor? Commercial floor scrubbers provide a way to clean large areas quicker and with fewer workers.
There are a variety of automated commercial floor scrubbing models available on the market. More recently, advancements in technology have brought about robotic versions of commercial floor scrubbers.
Floor scrubbers are equipped with an automated system which dispenses a cleaning compound. Some automatic floor scrubbing models within a vacuum system may be fitted at the rear of the machine with a squeegee attachment behind the suction nozzle. These machines feature separate recovery or collection tanks. The dispensing tank holds the cleaning mixture and the collection tank holds the liquids and material gathered by the vacuum system. Having separation between dirty water and clean water creates a more sanitary cleaning option.
First, the automatic scrubber dispenses the cleaning solution and the scrubbing system is activated to loosen stains and dirt which are next suctioned into the collection tank of the machine when it passes over a location.
Automatic Floor Scrubber Head Types
There are three main types of floor scrubber heads including cylindrical, rotary (also known as disk), and square oscillating.
Rotary or Disk Floor Scrubber Head
The rotary or disk style floor scrubber head is the most common type of scrubber head. They use a circular motion with one or two round pads or brushes to push a cleaning compound into the floor.
Cylindrical Floor Scrubber Head
Rotating at a 90-degree angle to the floor, the cylindrical floor scrubber model features counter-rotating tube designed brushes to facilitate cleaning. These allow for better cleaning of uneven or irregular surfaces. Scrubbers relying on a cylindrical head typically have a collection unit found behind the scrubber head that allows for bigger items including stones and nails to be collected to eliminate having to sweep the floor before cleaning. Different brush styles make it easy to clean a wide variety of floor surfaces. Soft brushes can be utilized to clean synthetic floors, textured tile and rubber and harder bristles can be used for cleaning grouted tile, concrete and other harder surfaces.
Square Oscillating Floor Scrubber Head
There is a flat pad on square oscillating floor scrubbing models that vibrate at high speed to clean the floor. Corners and walls can be cleaned more efficiently thanks to the square head design. These machines can remove the floor finish when the square scrubbing heads are used in conjunction with special stripping pads. Vinyl tile flooring can also benefit from being cleaned with square oscillating pads. Due to the high-speed oscillation, the square pads deliver more agitation and floor cleaning power. Cleaning grouted tile is much easier when these oscillating pads are utilized.

Walk-Behind Floor Scrubbers
There is a forward assist feature on walk-behind floor scrubbing models that helps to propel the unit forward when the operator enables this mechanism. The forward assist mechanism can help eliminate operator fatigue by enabling the operator to work longer in comparison to manual and traditional methods.
Stand-On Floor Scrubbers
The stand-on floor scrubber models provide better efficiency for larger spaces compared to walk-behind models and these units are more cost-efficient compared to a rider floor scrubber. Stand-on floor scrubbers offer increased maneuvering capacity and are smaller than rider models, making them capable of accessing more locations. Since the operator is standing, these units provide better line-of-sight compared to walk-behind and rider models.
Rider Floor Scrubbers
Rider floor scrubber models enable the operator to sit down while operating the equipment. These machines clean in a similar manner and reduce operator fatigue due to their comfortable seating. This design facilitates up to sixty-five percent more efficiency in comparison to the walk-behind models and allows large areas of the floor to be covered more efficiently.
Robotic Floor Scrubbers
Technological design advancements within the field of autonomous robotics have helped to create a new army of floor-scrubbing machines. Robotic floor scrubbing models were created by combining robotic self-control options with automatic floor scrubbing technology. Commercial floor scrubbers are commonly found in manufacturing facilities, healthcare, retail and education centers. Certain robotic commercial units are capable of cleaning an area up to ten thousand square feet in one hour.
New technology is developing all the time and the capacity for robotic floor scrubbers will only increase. Areas of increased development are expected specifically with improved sensors and computing components. Mobile robotic sensors enable today’s floor scrubbers to complete a wider detection range around objects and walls. This technology will help the machine note its location in expansive environments including shopping malls, airports and convention centers.
Early models of residential cleaning robots followed a random pattern when cleaning. However, commercial robotic floor scrubbers are now able to create an accurate plan for cleaning. This allows these robots to cover the entire floor in a predictable and consistent pattern each time they operate. Floor scrubber units clean more effectively than ever before thanks to their advanced technology. Special sensors help the robotic floor scrubbers navigate around obstacles and people when they encounter any while operating autonomously.
Additional Floor Scrubber Options and Considerations
Hard to Reach Areas
Floor scrubbing machines can find it hard to navigate around fixtures such as water fountains or corners and edges. Typically, these locations would need to be cleaned with a mop and bucket if they could not accommodate the machine. There are oscillating brush decks available for certain floor scrubbing models to help them deal with hard-to-reach areas.
Pre-Sweeping and Vacuum System Maintenance
Advanced models feature a pre-sweep option and vacuum system to be used before the wet scrub. This allows the machine to remove debris prior to scrubbing without having to employ a traditional dry mop or broom. The pre-sweep brush head and collection chamber is placed in front of the vacuum system to collect dust and loose debris before it is able to reach the the vacuum system. Blockages to the vacuum hose or motor are avoided with this pre-sweep brush head and collection design. It was previously necessary to sweep with a broom or dry mop to dispose of debris and dust that might clog the vacuum hose or accumulate in the vacuum motor and negatively affect performance. In the event a blockage occurs, the vacuum hose may need to be removed and cleaned. Occasionally, the vacuum motor may need to be blown out with compressed air to clear away any debris.
Environmental Options
Certain floor scrubbing models have environmentally friendly options. There are more environmental features incorporated into certain designs including safer soaps and water-saving systems to reduce the greywater and the chemicals. Certain floor scrubbers are available to clean without any water or chemicals.
Solution Dispensing System Maintenance and Considerations
Damage can occur to the solution dispensing system if stripping solutions are added to traditional floor scrubbers. However, they can still be vacuumed up by the machine without damage. The solution system should be periodically flushed with a water and vinegar mixture to clean the system of any soap and calcium deposits that can accumulate in the solution system.
