About LionsBot
LionsBot manufactures autonomous floor-cleaning robots in Singapore for commercial and industrial facilities. Its range spans compact R3 vacuum and scrub units, the manoeuvrable R5 and the heavy-duty R12 Rex Scrub, with the LionsClean application coordinating robots and remote cleaning assignments across a site.
R3 Scrub combines three-hour wet scrubbing with seven-hour dust-mopping, a 21-litre clean-water tank and practical coverage of 500 to 800 square metres per hour. Larger Rex units carry 140 litres of solution, apply up to 80 kilograms of brush pressure and run for as long as eight hours. Refuel stations let compatible robots recharge, drain waste water and refill automatically; LionsBot manufactures and tests the machines at its Singapore factory.
