XBR-1-H Underwater Robot for Marine Biofouling Cleaning

Underwater robot equipped with rotating cleaning disc for marine biofouling removal on submerged metal surfaces.

XBR-1-H Underwater Robot for Marine Biofouling Cleaning

Meet the next evolution in maritime maintenance: our underwater hull cleaning robot, engineered for safe, efficient, and dry-dock-free removal of marine biofouling—including barnacles, algae, slime, and hard fouling—directly on submerged ship hulls, offshore structures, or storage tank interiors. Built on the field-proven XBR-1 base platform, this compact yet powerful robotic system delivers professional-grade cleaning performance without requiring vessel haul-out, saving time, cost, and environmental impact.

Designed for operation at depths up to 50 meters, this underwater hull cleaning robot combines a pressure-resistant housing, deep-water motor, and magnetic adhesion system to cling securely to vertical or overhead steel surfaces—even in challenging underwater conditions.

✅ Key Advantages of Our Underwater Hull Cleaning Robot

Operate Without Dry-Docking: Clean hulls in-water—reduce downtime and port fees.
Real-Time Visual Monitoring: Integrated HD underwater camera gives operators full visibility during cleaning.
Precise Remote Control: Navigate, adjust jet angle, and control speed via a dedicated handheld remote.
Eco-Friendly & Non-Abrasive: Uses only high-pressure water (50 MPa)—no chemicals, no surface damage.
Strong Magnetic Adhesion: Stays firmly attached to steel hulls or tank walls during operation.
Ideal for Confined or Submerged Spaces: Compact design accesses areas too risky for divers.

🔒 Safety, Efficiency, and Sustainability Combined

By replacing manual diver cleaning or costly dry-docking, our underwater hull cleaning robot significantly reduces operational risk while improving cleaning consistency. The closed-loop water system (when paired with filtration) minimizes environmental discharge, aligning with IMO Biofouling Guidelines and local port regulations.

On-deck operators maintain full control and visibility—ensuring every square meter is cleaned thoroughly, safely, and efficiently.

Keep your fleet performing at peak efficiency—without ever leaving the water.
