## Application profile

Parking garages combine large repeatable floor areas with tyre abrasion, dust, sand and vehicle traffic. Autonomous cleaning is most suitable on sufficiently level, clearly defined traffic and parking floors, while ramps, strong slopes, outdoor decks and special traffic risks require separate assessment.
- Typical areas: Traffic lanes, bays, parking decks
- Key requirement: Vehicle traffic & abrasion
- Relevant models: Beetle, Omnie

## Assessing dry debris and wet cleaning separately

Dry dust, sand and tyre abrasion place different demands on a robot than adhered soil or regular wet cleaning. The actual dirt profile and floor surface therefore determine the model class.

Ramps, strong slopes, weather-exposed decks and zones with special traffic or safety requirements should not be treated as equivalent to a level indoor floor.

## What to assess before parking-garage deployment

- Level traffic floors: The intended autonomous zones need technical assessment for surface, slope, transitions, drains and thresholds before approval.
- Vehicle traffic: Entrances, exits, peak periods, deliveries and sight lines determine safe routes and suitable cleaning windows.
- Dirt profile: Dust, sand and loose debris require different technology from adhered soil or regular wet cleaning.
- Safety zones: Ramps, barriers, tight turns, open edges and especially critical traffic areas need separate treatment in the operating concept.

## Recommended models

- [Gausium Beetle](https://frisilogix.de/en/cleaning-robots/gausium-beetle): Beetle is relevant for larger level indoor floors where dry dirt, dust, sand and loose debris dominate.
- [Gausium Omnie](https://frisilogix.de/en/cleaning-robots/gausium-omnie): Omnie is relevant where large level parking floors require regular scrubbing in addition to dry tracked-in dirt.

## Commissioning process

1. Assess parking decks, traffic lanes, floor surface, slopes, dirt profile and vehicle-traffic periods
2. Define suitable level zones and separate ramps, barriers, critical turns and weather-exposed areas
3. Test Beetle or Omnie on a representative parking deck during a realistic traffic window
4. Configure routes, restricted zones, schedules and daily checks, then optimise operation using real cleaning and run data

## FAQ

### Which cleaning robot is suitable for a parking garage?

Beetle can fit dry dust, sand and loose debris. Omnie can be relevant where larger level floors need regular scrubbing. The actual floor and traffic assessment determines suitability.

### Can the robot clean ramps and strong slopes?

That must not be assumed. Slopes, transitions, drains and ramps need technical assessment and explicit approval for the intended operation.

### Can the robot clean during vehicle traffic?

That is site-specific. Lower-traffic periods and clearly defined zones are often more practical than peak-time operation.

### Are open parking decks automatically suitable?

No. Weather, moisture, temperature, slope and technical approvals make open decks different from protected indoor areas and require separate assessment.
