SESTO Robotics unveils automobile disinfectant robot

It claims to disinfect an area of 100 sqm in approximately 45 minutes.

Robotics firm SESTO Robotics has launched a dual-function autonomous mobile disinfectant robot, which the company claims can disinfect facilities 24/7, an announcement revealed.

SESTO HealthGUARD is designed to self-navigate and manoeuvre around tight places, avoiding obstacles and people, making it suitable for many indoor facilities. This aims to automate labour-intensive and repetitive tasks in healthcare and manufacturing facilities.

Operators can set up cleaning missions, schedules and deployment on a tablet or laptop, where they can modify and update the robots’ cleaning routine. The robot provides an industry-leading utilisation rate of up to six hours on a single charge, an auto-return function back to its charging station, and battery hot swap in less than five minutes.

Another notable feature is its multi-nozzle sprayer, which claims to target high-touch surface areas. Equipped with six UV-C (254nm) high-output germicidal lamps, SESTO HealthGuard can disinfect an area of 100 sqm in approximately 45 minutes.
