What it does

Dry, quiet, and built for floors full of people.

Some floors can't take water — transit concourses through peak, mall walkways, hotel lobbies, open-plan offices. The SW55 is a waterless dry sweeper-vacuum: twin side brushes feed a 9 kPa suction system that lifts dust, grit and litter without leaving anything wet behind.

It runs at 62 dB — quiet enough to work around people during trading hours — and covers 1,200 m²/h at 550 mm width. A 40,000 m² mapping ceiling and 8–10 hour endurance mean it handles a full daily cycle without intervention.

It runs the path you map, works around people and obstacles, returns to dock, and reports its coverage to the dashboard. No water, no slip risk, no operator.

Best for

Public floors, trading hours, no water.

If the floor is busy, hard, and can't be wet-cleaned during the day, the SW55 keeps it clear quietly while people are still on it.

Transit hubs

Concourses, platforms and interchange halls. Dry sweeping between peak windows without closing the floor or leaving it wet.

Subway stations

High-throughput station floors. Grit and litter pickup at 62 dB while commuters keep moving.

Malls & lobbies

Shopping-centre walkways and building foyers. Quiet enough to run mid-trade, dry enough to skip wet-floor signs.

Hotels

Lobbies and corridors where guests are present around the clock. Low-noise dry pickup that doesn't disrupt.

Offices

Open-plan and reception floors. Daily dust and grit control without a cleaner pushing a machine through the space.

Airport landside

Terminal landside floors and lounges. Continuous dry coverage across long opening hours.

How it works

Map once. Sweep every day.

One-day commissioning, then it runs on the schedule you set. The dashboard shows last run's coverage map and any incidents.

Step 01

Map

Our engineer scans the floor, builds the 3D map, sets paths, no-go zones and the schedule — including which areas it works during trading hours.

Step 02

Sweep

Twin side brushes feed the 9 kPa vacuum as it follows its path at 62 dB, lifting dust, grit and litter dry.

Step 03

Recharge

At low battery it returns to dock and tops up. 8–10 hour endurance covers most full daily cycles before that's needed.

Step 04

Report

Coverage map, area cleaned, run time and incident log land on the dashboard for your facilities lead.

Australian deployment

Waterless coverage for floors that stay open.

A lot of WA public space can't be wet-cleaned during the day — train concourses, shopping-centre walkways, hotel lobbies, airport landside. Traditional answers are either a noisy ride-on between peaks or a crew with backpack vacuums. The SW55 runs dry and quiet at 62 dB, so it keeps the floor clear without closing it or leaving a slip risk.

For transit and property operators the unlock is uptime: the floor stays open and presentable through the day, with a coverage record for every run.

We're an Australian dealer — Fiction Labs Pty Ltd, trading as Perth Robots — with local engineers, local mapping and local parts. Multi-site operators get a fleet-level dashboard across every location and a single point of contact for the lot.

Bigger floors or heavier debris loads step up to the SW80 — same 62 dB profile, 850 mm width and 17 kPa suction. For hard floors that need a wet clean, pair the SW55 with an L-series scrubber. One management dashboard across the lot, RaaS pricing per robot.

Service & support

Australian-based, end-to-end.

No offshore tickets. Perth-based engineers handle survey, deployment, training, mapping changes and incident response.

Mapping & deployment

On-site survey, full 3D map, cleaning paths, no-go zones and schedule set up. We hand over a running system.

Operator training

On-site session for your cleaning lead and site manager. Dashboard, daily routine, fault response and escalation flow.

Response SLA

Perth metro: same-day on-site. Multi-site contracts include an optional standby unit. Cloud-resolvable issues under an hour.

Purchase, lease or RaaS

Outright purchase with a Care Plan, 2–4 year lease-to-own, or Robotics-as-a-Service: one fixed monthly fee, all-inclusive.

Why Perth Robots

Honest credibility, not just claims.

Engineering-led.

Built by someone who has engineered advanced systems and operated them in demanding environments — we know what these machines can and can't do.

WA-based service, not a reseller.

We deploy and service every unit ourselves across WA. If a robot's down at 2am on a mine site, that's on us — same time zone.

Multi-OEM, honest advice.

We recommend the right robot for your site, not the only one we carry.

Low-risk by design.

RaaS is a flat monthly subscription, not a capital gamble — the risk sits with us. Run the robot as often as you need.

FAQ

Common buyer questions.

Why a waterless sweeper instead of a scrubber?
Because some floors can't take water during opening hours — transit concourses, mall walkways, hotel lobbies, offices. The SW55 lifts dust, grit and litter dry, so there's no wet surface and no slip risk while people are on the floor. For hard floors that do need a wet clean, we pair it with an L-series scrubber.
How quiet is it really?
62 dB in operation — around the level of normal conversation. That's quiet enough to run during trading hours in lobbies, malls and offices without disrupting people.
How long does it run before recharging?
8–10 hours of endurance, which covers a full daily cycle on most sites. It returns to dock to recharge when low and resumes on schedule.
How big a floor can it map?
Up to a 40,000 m² mapping ceiling. It follows the 3D-mapped path with no-go zones we set during commissioning, and works around people and obstacles as it goes.
Where does the debris go?
Twin side brushes feed a 9 kPa suction system into the onboard hopper, which your cleaning staff empty as part of the daily routine. We cover the routine during training.
Is the SW55 sold or leased?
Both. Outright purchase with a Care Plan, 2–4 year lease-to-own, or Robotics-as-a-Service (RaaS) — a fixed monthly fee covering hardware, maintenance, mapping changes, software updates and SLA support.

More debris? Wet clean? Different robot.

The SW55 is the quiet dry sweeper. For heavier loads or wet cleaning, one of these is the better fit — or run them together.
