Hemel Robotics supplies autonomous mobile robots that perform floor cleaning and intra‑facility logistics for large commercial venues, using SLAM navigation, lidar and vision sensors, and modular payload compartments. The robots integrate with cloud‑based fleet management and existing facility‑management software to provide self‑charging, real‑time load monitoring, and predictive maintenance, reducing labor costs and improving service consistency.

Problem
Commercial facilities rely on labor‑intensive, bulky floor‑scrubbing machines and manual cart services to move items or meals, leading to inconsistent cleaning quality, high operational costs, and limited scalability across large premises such as malls, hotels, and factories.
Solution
Hemel Robotics provides a portfolio of autonomous mobile robots that automate both floor‑maintenance and intra‑facility logistics. The Snail Sweeper and Snail Cleaner use AI‑driven SLAM navigation and integrated water‑spray and brush systems to deliver consistent, repeatable cleaning without operator intervention. Delivery models—DigiGo, Deligo, and Big DigiGo—combine real‑time path planning, dynamic load balancing, and secure payload compartments to transport goods or meals efficiently across multi‑level sites. All units communicate with a cloud‑based fleet management console that offers remote monitoring, predictive maintenance alerts, and API hooks for existing building‑management systems. By replacing manual labor with self‑charging, sensor‑rich robots, Hemel Robotics reduces labor overhead, improves service reliability, and enables facilities to scale operations without proportional staffing increases.
Target Audience
Primary customers are facilities managers and operations directors in large‑scale commercial venues—shopping centers, hotels, office complexes, restaurants, and manufacturing plants—who need automated cleaning and reliable internal logistics.
