Marosol Deploys 12 Industrial Robot Vacuums at Incheon International Airport

In July 2024, Incheon International Airport—the gateway that shapes the very first impression of Korea—introduced a fleet of commercial robot vacuums.

Before automation, the airport faced challenges in floor cleaning due to its vast size, varying floor materials, and restricted-access areas.😥 With hundreds of thousands of travelers passing through daily and no days off year-round, relying solely on human cleaning staff was no longer sustainable. For this reason, Incheon decided to adopt 12 industrial-grade robot vacuums.

Marosol deployed two types of robots:

• 8 units of Gausium VC40 for powerful dry cleaning
  
  

• 4 units of Gausium SC75 for both dry & wet cleaning across large areas

Why Did Incheon Airport Adopt Commercial Robot Vacuums? 🤔

Incheon Airport had previously used cleaning robots. However, there were many complaints about the older models. For example, once the battery was depleted, the robot would simply stop in place, requiring staff to physically move the machine to a charging station.😰 With robots weighing several hundred kilograms, this created major management difficulties.

Beyond these issues, the airport had additional needs: 👇

• ✅ A cleaning robot suitable for both carpeted and marble floors
  
  

• ✅ Real-time monitoring and control that staff can easily manage
  
  

• ✅ Safe operation in a highly crowded airport environment
  
  

• ✅ A cost-effective solution with strong ROI and labor savings
  
  

Incheon ultimately set the goal of deploying cleaning robots across all airport zones. This required selecting models specialized for different surfaces—carpet in arrival halls, and marble in concourses and transport centers.

Marosol Solution 1: Recommending the Gausium Industrial Robot Vacuum

The first step was finding a cleaning robot that could meet Incheon’s strict requirements: multiple floor types, large coverage area, safety, and cleaning power.

The ideal solution was the Gausium industrial cleaning robot.

Carpet Floors → Dry-Cleaning Robot VC40

The arrival hall floors are carpeted, requiring a dry-cleaning model. The VC40 was chosen for this role.

• Medical-grade H13 HEPA filter : Capable of capturing particles smaller than a micron—including COVID-19 virus particles. This makes it the perfect solution for airports with high density and diverse international travelers.

• 5× the suction power of household vacuums : With a suction force of 24,000pa, the VC40 delivers deep carpet cleaning that even manual vacuuming struggles to achieve. With this level of power, the toughest carpet cleaning tasks can always be trusted to the VC40.

Marble Floors → Wet-Cleaning Robot SC75

The concourses and transport centers feature wide marble floors, requiring a large-capacity robot.

• Massive coverage: The SC75 can clean up to 3,000 m² per hour (≈ 900 pyeong).
  
  

• High productivity: Equipped with rapid-charging batteries, large water tanks, and waste bins, the SC75 minimizes downtime and enables continuous long-duration cleaning.

• Heavy-duty performance: With 400 kg load capacity and 45 kg brush pressure, the SC75 can scrub away even hardened stains and oil marks.
  
  

• Eco-efficient cleaning: A 5-stage water filtration system reduces water consumption by up to 80%, while leaving marble floors polished and shining.
  
  

The SC75 is already widely deployed not only in airports but also in factories, proving its ability to handle the toughest grime.

Marosol Solution 2: Driving Safety with Zero Accidents

As the world’s third-busiest airport, Incheon handles over 300,000 passengers daily—a number comparable to a large metropolitan city. Introducing robots in such an environment might seem risky, but Gausium robots lead the industry in autonomous navigation safety.

• Obstacle detection down to 10 cm: In tests conducted by Marosol, even small figurines placed in the robot’s path were detected and avoided.
  
  

• Advanced sensing suite: LiDAR, ultrasonic sensors, HD cameras, 3D LiDAR, and tilt cameras all work together to build real-time 3D maps of the environment.
  
  

• Extra precaution in mapping: Marosol’s robotics experts carefully avoid blind spots and intersections during mapping, ensuring maximum safety.😉

Marosol Solution 3: Centralized Control of 12 Cleaning Robots via Tablet

Covering 1,070,000 m² requires not only powerful robots but also a robust control solution. This is where Marosol’s SOLlink platform comes in.

SOLlink: Integrated Robot Control Platform

Launched in February 2023, SOLlink is Korea’s first multi-brand, multi-model robot control system. It supports 200+ brands and 1,000+ robot models, enabling seamless centralized management across diverse fleets.

With a single integration, SOLlink allows remote monitoring, scheduling, and control from anywhere in the world.

At Incheon, all 12 deployed robots are connected to SOLlink, enabling full fleet management from a single tablet.

• One-touch recall: Robots can be summoned directly to a technician for inspection or part replacement.
  
  

• Automated scheduling: Cleaning zones and times can be pre-assigned to each robot, ensuring maximum efficiency.
  

Beyond Incheon, SOLlink has already been adopted at Hankook & Company offices (6 robots), golf courses, factories, and hospitals.
