Remove dust and debris from your AutoStore Robots' track sensors to ensure maximum uptime

What is Kardex SensorCleaningStation?

Kardex SensorCleaningStation is a fully integrated cleaning system built directly into the AutoStore grid. Once per day, each robot automatically travels to the cleaning station, where integrated air nozzles blow debris from its sensors to help maintain reliable performance.

Key Features

  • In-Grid Design

    The low-profile station is integrated within a Grid column, allowing Robots to drive directly over it.

  • Automatic Daily Sensor Cleaning

    Robots automatically visit the cleaning stations once per day with no operator intervention required.

  • Cleaning Cycle Takes Only Seconds

    Each Robot completes its cleaning routine in under 10 seconds before returning to normal operation.

  • Utilizes Compressed Air

    The station has integrated nozzles that use compressed air to blow dust and contaminants off the sensors.

  • Operates Automatically

    The Robots automatically go to the SensorCleaningStation and the cleaning routine engages as soon as the Robot is in position.

  • Built for New & Existing Systems

    The SensorCleaningStation is designed to integrate seamlessly into a new or existing AutoStore.
