Floor Cleaning Machines

Vacuum Cleaners

A vacuum cleaner is a device that uses an air pump to create a partial vacuum to suck up dust and dirt, usually from floors, and optionally from other surfaces as well. The dirt is collected by either a dustbag or a rigid cartridge, which may be emptied and reused. Vacuum cleaners are used in homes as well as in industry, and exist in a variety of sizes and models.

Scrubbers

There three kinds of scrubber equipment: walk-behind, ride-on and autonomous. A walk-behind scrubber machine is meant to clean smaller spaces and is more compact. Ride-on scrubbers are made for tougher cleaning tasks. Automatic floor scrubbers are a type of floor cleaning machine that are used to scrub a floor clean of light debris, dust, oil, grease or floor marks. These machines have either disk or cylindrical scrubbing head and an automated system for dispensing cleaning solution and then vacuuming it up. So, in one pass over the floor, a user can dispense cleaning, scrub it into the floor, and then vacuum it all up with an auto scrubber squeegee attachment at the back of the machine. Auto scrubbers have a separate dispensing (solution) tank and collection (recovery) tank to keep the clean water separate from the dirty water.

Sweepers

Using floor sweepers are faster than floor scrubber ones. An industrial floor sweeper has two different kinds: walk behind floor sweeper and ride-on.

Vacuum sweepers are used for picking up light materials such as shredded paper and/or leaves. Broom sweepers, on the other hand, are used for picking up heavier materials. They are mostly used in food handling and electronics manufacturing applications.

There are three various types of sweeping systems: dust control, overthrow, and dustpan.

Sweeper-Scrubbers 

Some facilities require both functions and features of sweepers and scrubbers. Buying a sweeper-scrubber is cheaper than purchasing both a sweeper and a scrubber separately. Combination sweeper-scrubbers offer the best of both worlds to facilities that have applications that require extensive cleaning.

Sweeper-scrubbers have the feature of being able to have dust control. They can also clean light debris plus surfaces with oil or grease.

Carpet Washer

Carpet washers clean your carpets using a detergent cleaning solution. Using a carpet washer helps to reduce the appearance of stains and break down ground-in and embedded dirt that builds up in the carpet pile. Using a carpet washer can leave your carpets up to ten times cleaner than vacuuming, and can be dry enough to walk on in two to three hours.

Carpet washers can be large full size or portable, allowing you to choose a carpet washer to suit your needs. Full size cleaners are suitable for cleaning larger areas such as rooms, hallways and rugs. Portable deep cleaners are smaller, and are adept at cleaning small stains and spills, ideal for those with small children or pets.

Conclusion

All of these types of industrial floor cleaning machines guarantee the best for your industry’s needs. Each type of industry would have its own specific needs, so it is important to be aware of the distinguishing features, benefits, and disadvantages of each of the equipment discussed above.
