Equipment Selection｜From the “Heart” to the “Brain”: Understanding the True Core Competitiveness of Cleaning Equipment!
Oct 30, 2025
When selecting cleaning equipment, have you ever been overwhelmed by the myriad specifications? Whether a machine can consistently deliver value over the next five or ten years ultimately hinges on its “heart”—the motor system—and its “brain”—the control system.
In the industrial cleaning sector, we often observe a phenomenon: some equipment may seem attractively priced at purchase, yet becomes a persistent “money pit” during subsequent use due to frequent breakdowns, high energy consumption, and maintenance costs. As a cleaning equipment manufacturer with years of industry expertise, we firmly believe that a truly good piece of equipment is defined by delivering the lowest total cost of ownership and the greatest peace of mind throughout its entire lifecycle. Today, we won't discuss hypothetical scenarios. Instead, we'll focus solely on two core factors that determine a machine's long-term value.
01“Heart” Assessment: How Long Can Your Device's Motor Last?
The motor serves as the power source for the equipment, and its quality directly determines the equipment's lifespan and stability.
Overheating Protection: Will the motor burn out due to overheating during prolonged high-load operation? Jiechi equipment features a built-in temperature monitoring system that automatically reduces load or shuts down when abnormal temperatures occur—a self-protection capability lacking in many low-cost devices.
Sealing Rating: Especially in humid or dusty environments (such as food processing plants and warehouses), the motor's dust and water resistance rating is critical. Our core motors feature IP55 or higher sealing, effectively blocking moisture and dust to extend service life.
Energy Efficiency Performance: Through optimized electromagnetic design and material selection, Jiechi motors achieve energy consumption approximately 8%-15% lower than the industry average at equivalent output power. This translates to daily electricity cost savings throughout the equipment's entire lifecycle.
02“Brain“ Upgrade: Is Your Device Smart Enough？
A machine that can only perform mindless tasks demands significant oversight from managers.
Fault Self-Diagnosis: The controller of the Jiechi equipment continuously monitors the operational status of all components. Upon detecting any abnormalities—such as a stalled water-suction motor or brush deck overload—it immediately displays a clear fault code on the screen. This guides operators to swiftly identify and resolve issues, minimizing downtime.
User-Friendly Interaction: Complex equipment doesn't have to mean complex operation. We are committed to simplifying operations through clear icons and straightforward button logic, complemented by detailed after-sales service manuals. This significantly reduces training costs and operational error rates.
Adaptive Adjustment: Can the equipment intelligently adjust water flow and brush pressure based on different floor materials and stain levels? This adaptive capability is key to achieving the balance between “cleanliness” and “energy efficiency.”
03 Doing the long-term math: Price cost vs. Holding cost
When customers purchase equipment, they pay the “price cost,” but over the next 5 to 10 years, you will continue to pay the “ownership cost,” which includes electricity bills, maintenance fees, parts replacement costs, and downtime losses.
Choosing a device with a powerful “heart” and a smart “brain” means:
Lower failure rates ensure production schedules remain uninterrupted.
Lower maintenance costs mean real savings.
Higher residual value means that even when upgrading, old equipment can still fetch a good price.
