PUDU ET1

Smart floor cleaning in the smallest of spaces

With the PUDU ET1, PUDU Robotics is expanding its portfolio to include a particularly compact, AI-powered cleaning robot for professional use. This autonomous scrubber-dryer combines sweeping, scrubbing, vacuuming and dry mopping in a single machine. Thanks to its innovative cleaning system, featuring a front sweeping unit and a downstream scrubbing roller, it removes both dry and wet dirt in a single cleaning pass.

 

With a minimum clearing width of just 50 cm, the PUDU ET1 is particularly well-suited to narrow aisles, winding retail spaces and high-traffic areas. The AI-based cleaning control system recognises different floor surfaces and types of dirt and automatically adjusts the cleaning process accordingly. The ET1 thus offers a flexible solution for the regular cleaning of smaller commercial premises – such as retail shops, restaurants, hotels and office buildings.

Advantages of the PUDU ET1

4-in-1 cleaning: sweeping, scrubbing, vacuuming and dry mopping
The PUDU ET1 combines four cleaning functions in one compact machine. The front sweeping unit picks up dust, hair and loose dirt particles, whilst the scrubbing roller behind it simultaneously removes wet dirt from hard floors. Thanks to this combination, both dry and wet dirt can be tackled in a single pass. This reduces the need for separate cleaning operations and manual changes of equipment.

 

Powerful scrubbing with water heated to up to 85 °C
With up to 800 revolutions per minute and a contact pressure of 5,000 Pa, the rotating cleaning roller removes even stubborn dirt such as grease stains, footprints and sticky residues. When used with the optional docking station, the PUDU ET1 can be filled with water heated to up to 85 °C. An integrated heater maintains the water temperature throughout the cleaning process. This ensures thorough floor cleaning, particularly in catering environments and on heavily used hard floors.

 

Clean and almost dry floors after a single pass
The PUDU ET1 recovers the dirty water immediately whilst scrubbing, leaving the floor with minimal residual moisture. This reduces water build-up, visible residue and potential slip hazards. At the same time, the cleaning roller is continuously cleaned during operation, ensuring that collected dirt is not unnecessarily spread across the surface. This process promotes thorough cleaning with short drying times, particularly in areas open to the public.

 

AI Magic Cleaning for cleaning tailored to your needs
The PUDU ET1’s intelligent cleaning control system combines autonomous mapping, floor detection and adaptive cleaning functions. If the system detects stubborn stains, the robot automatically reduces its travel speed, increases the speed of the scrubbing roller and adjusts the water flow. It also takes different floor coverings into account: for example, the ET1 lifts the wet cleaning roller at the edges of carpets. Cleaning heatmaps also help to track the areas that have been cleaned and optimise cleaning processes in a targeted manner.

 

Compact design for narrow aisles and winding spaces
With dimensions of just 500 × 380 × 580 mm and a minimum clearance width of 50 cm, the PUDU ET1 can reach areas that are difficult for larger scrubber-dryer robots to access. It can also clean under furniture and tables, provided the clearance height is at least 60 cm. AI-powered obstacle detection aids navigation between shelves, furnishings and other obstacles. This means that automatic floor cleaning can also be used in confined and heavily trafficked commercial premises.

 

Automatic maintenance with optional 8-in-1 docking station
When used in conjunction with the optional 8-in-1 docking station, the PUDU ET1 carries out numerous maintenance tasks automatically. These include automatic charging, fresh water refilling, waste water disposal, detergent dosing, and the rinsing and spin-drying of the cleaning roller. The suction lip is also cleaned automatically and the water can be heated. This reduces the need for regular manual intervention and eases the workload for cleaning teams in day-to-day operations.

 

Easy operation and flexible maintenance
Thanks to autonomous mapping, the PUDU ET1 can map new environments independently, without the need for time-consuming manual mapping beforehand. It is operated via an integrated 7-inch touchscreen, a mobile app or a PC-based management platform. In addition, key cleaning components such as brushes, rollers, water tanks and dirt bins can be easily removed and cleaned. This simplifies day-to-day operation as well as regular maintenance tasks.

 

Optional 21.5-inch display for advertising and customer communication
As well as cleaning floors, the PUDU ET1 can also be used as a mobile advertising space. An optionally available 21.5-inch HD display allows product information, promotional campaigns and corporate content to be shown whilst the robot is cleaning. Customised wraps for the robot’s housing are also possible. The ET1 thus combines automated cleaning with additional opportunities for brand presentation directly at the point of use.

 

PUDU ET1 compared: ET1, CC1 Pro and CC1 Pro Disc

With the PUDU ET1, PUDU Robotics is expanding its cleaning range to include a particularly compact model designed for smaller and awkwardly shaped spaces. Whilst larger cleaning robots really come into their own on continuous surfaces, the ET1 is designed for high manoeuvrability and versatile cleaning in confined spaces.

• PUDU ET1: According to the manufacturer, this model is particularly suitable for areas ranging from 100 to 800 m². With a minimum clearance width of 50 cm, 4-in-1 cleaning and a powerful scrubbing roller, it is designed for small retail spaces, restaurants and business premises with lots of nooks and crannies. The optional hot-water cleaning function expands its range of applications for tackling stubborn dirt.
• PUDU CC1 Pro: Designed for larger cleaning areas of approximately 500 to 2,500 m². Its versatile cleaning functions and AI-based control system make it particularly suitable for medium-sized retail spaces, office buildings and other commercial indoor areas.
• PUDU CC1 Pro Disc: Designed for intensive scrubbing and floor maintenance on hard floors. Two high-speed disc brushes with 25 kg of contact pressure provide the mechanical cleaning power required, particularly for tackling stubborn dirt and for professional hard floor maintenance.

Which cleaning robot is the right choice depends primarily on the size of the area, the floor coverings, the width of the aisles and the typical types of dirt. For smaller, textured commercial spaces, the PUDU ET1 offers a compact alternative to the larger models in the CC1 series.

PUDU ET1: A compact solution for automated floor cleaning

The PUDU ET1 combines four cleaning functions, AI-powered control and an exceptionally compact design to create a versatile solution for professional floor cleaning. With a minimum clearance width of just 50 cm, adaptive scrubbing and an optional 8-in-1 docking station, it is particularly well-suited to smaller commercial premises where larger cleaning robots reach their limits.

Whether in retail, catering, the hospitality industry or office buildings: the PUDU ET1 helps businesses automate routine cleaning tasks, reduce manual effort and establish consistent cleaning procedures.
