The Internet of Things (IoT) enables intelligent connectivity between people and devices, as well as between devices themselves, through sensing equipment, wireless communication, and data platforms. This facilitates remote monitoring, location management, fault alerts, data analysis, and more—a single connection provides comprehensive control over equipment status. In the cleaning sector, this technology is progressively integrating with floor scrubbers, sweepers, dryers, and other equipment.
Traditionally, equipment maintenance relied entirely on manual inspections and phone-based repairs, resulting in information asymmetry and inefficiency. Today, IoT platforms empower managers to not only monitor equipment usage in real time but also receive advance fault alerts for rapid response. The moment equipment “moves,” the system pinpoints the issue—completely revolutionizing traditional management approaches. This empowers property management, factories, and shopping malls to reduce costs and boost efficiency.
IoT technology has expanded from industrial manufacturing into the cleaning equipment sector. By integrating sensors and communication modules into floor scrubbers, sweepers, and other devices, managers can remotely monitor equipment status via platforms, shifting from “manually identifying problems” to “system-driven alerts.”
? Remote Monitoring
Through the IoT platform, managers can view real-time operational status for each device, including whether it's active, has sufficient battery, or has completed scheduled cleaning tasks. Which units are absent today or experienced mid-task shutdowns is instantly visible via phone or computer.
? Location Tracking & Dispatch
This feature prevents missed spots, proving especially valuable in multi-zone operations like large campuses or underground garages.
The IoT system integrates GPS positioning modules to precisely track device locations. During large-area cleaning, this prevents redundant work and idle downtime. Combined with map-based zone planning, it assigns tasks to devices, boosting cleaning efficiency.
? Fault Alerts
The system continuously monitors critical components (motors, batteries, water suction motors, etc.). It proactively alerts managers upon detecting anomalies, preventing unexpected shutdowns.
For critical components like brush motors, water suction motors, and battery systems, the platform automatically issues alerts upon detecting abnormal currents, overheating, or power loss. Administrators can proactively schedule maintenance, preventing unexpected failures that disrupt operations and significantly enhancing equipment reliability.
? Data Analytics
The IoT platform automatically logs daily metrics including cleaned area, operating duration, and usage frequency, generating clear operational reports. This facilitates management reporting and performance tracking while helping businesses optimize staffing and cleaning routes—truly enabling “data-driven cleaning management.”
Multiple core products from Shanghai Jiechi Cleaning Equipment Co., Ltd., including the JC80 Smart Scrubber, A3 Walk-Behind Scrubber, A7 Ride-On Scrubber, and BA1200 Sweeper, now support IoT module integration. Through Jiechi's proprietary platform or third-party systems, the following smart functions are enabled:
? Real-time monitoring of cleaned area, battery level, and task completion rate
? Remote device unlocking/locking to prevent unauthorized operation
? Push fault alerts for rapid dispatch and after-sales coordination
? Visualize cleaning performance data with multi-dimensional export analysis
This “device + cloud” integration has seen widespread adoption across multiple projects, particularly in large-scale venues with frequent daily cleaning needs and staffing constraints—such as underground garages, back-of-house corridors in retail complexes, and office building common areas.
✅ Large Property Management Companies
Managing hundreds of devices across dozens of projects? A single system monitors all equipment status, saving manpower while streamlining cross-project maintenance efficiency.
✅ Factories/Industrial Parks/Warehousing & Logistics Centers
High dust levels, expansive areas, and frequent equipment use? IoT enables 24/7 operational oversight, ensuring comprehensive facility cleanliness.
✅ Cleaning Outsourcing Service Companies
With equipment scattered across client sites, remote monitoring, fault alerts, and data verification empower companies to track real-time client site conditions—enabling efficient operations without on-site visits.
Intelligent solutions represent the inevitable trajectory for cleaning equipment. “Cleaning Equipment + IoT” is no longer a distant technological concept but a tangible solution for cost reduction and efficiency enhancement.
It not only helps enterprises effectively manage equipment but, more importantly, makes cleaning operations more data-driven, logical, and profitable.
Still relying on pen and paper for equipment inspection records? Now is the time to let data drive decisions and enable equipment to speak for itself.
