The robotic solution for paint stripping and high pressure cleaning

Page last modified
May 19 2023

VertiDrive is the world's leading manufacturer of Magnetic Robot Crawlers for washing, grit-blasting, sand-blasting, hydro blasting, UHP paint stripping, etc. The technology delivers significant cost reduction compared to manual blasting for maintenance contractors and asset owners.

We have reinvented the way of heavy-duty work on steel surfaces in impossible places. 

Our robots are designed to effectively remove dirt, paint, and coatings on various steel surfaces like storage tanks, ship hulls, and other large steel structures.

Besides closed hydroblasting solutions, some of our models can be equipped with interchangeable applications, like high-pressure washing, hydroblasting, and abrasive blasting. This enables to change from one job to another in just a few minutes; change from dry blasting to hp washing without wasting any time.

Our solutions are therefore used by many companies for high-pressure activities such as surface preparation, industrial cleaning, subsea cleaning, and hold cleaning

Pro/con

Increased production rate over traditional (manual) blasting up to 40m² - 70m² an hour
Ergonomic operation, reduced operator fatigue, robots can run without any problem up to 23 hours a day
Consistent, high quality surface profile
Eliminates requirement for working at height (no scaffolding, cherry pickers, lift, etc.)
Waterblasting, no abrasives, no dust, no abrasives recycling
No collection / recycling of abrasives required
Polluted water is collected and ready for filtering / recycling
Only for use of steel surfaces
