Pudu Robotics Launches Self-Cleaning Docking Station for PUDU CC1 Series - Redefining Hands-Free Cleaning
BERLIN, Sept. 23, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Pudu Robotics, a global leader in service robotics, today announced the launch of the Self-Cleaning Docking Station, the latest addition to the PUDU CC1 Series ecosystem. The new docking station enables the PUDU CC1 series to perform automated, dock-assisted cleaning cycles that keep critical cleaning components in peak condition while substantially reducing routine upkeep.
The Self-Cleaning Docking Station expands Pudu's portfolio of cleaning solutions which includes the standard Docking Station for automated refilling, drainage, and charging, and the Mobile Water Station for flexible deployment in facilities without direct plumbing access. Together, these innovations give facility operators a complete set of tools for achieving consistent, unattended cleaning.
Key Features of the Self-Cleaning Docking Station
- Squeegee Deep Cleaning Technology
With a built-in 100W ultrasonic module and 65℃ / 149°F hot water system, the station thoroughly cleans the CC1's squeegee, removing dirt and residue to prevent streaks and secondary pollution. - Automated Roller Brush Cleaning
After each cleaning task, CC1 docks for automatic roller brush cleaning. The system removes over 95% of debris, prevents tangling, and helps extend the brush's service life. - Smart Stain Detection & Response
Paired with the CC1 Pro's onboard stain detection, the system forms a closed-loop workflow: detect → dock → self-clean → resume operation, preventing contamination spread and maintaining high cleaning standards. - 35x Maintenance Efficiency Improvement
By automating daily cleaning of the squeegee and roller brush, the station reduces routine upkeep from minutes per day to just a simple water tank rinse once per week. - Three Configurations in One System
The modular quick-swap design allows three setups: Standard Docking Station, Self-Cleaning Docking Station, or Pro version. This flexibility ensures compatibility with everything from compact stores to large facilities. - Modular Design for Easy Care
Roller brush cleaner, squeegee, and water tank are all quick-release, enabling fast, tool-free maintenance by a single operator.
In addition to these highlights, the station retains all core features of the original Docking Station—automatic refilling, drainage, detergent dosing, and charging—and is fully compatible with the Mobile Water Station for facilities without water lines.
A New Benchmark for Autonomous Cleaning
"The Self-Cleaning Docking Station makes it easier than ever for businesses to maintain consistent cleaning performance," said Felix Zhang, Founder and CEO of Pudu Robotics. "By enabling robots to maintain themselves, we've unlocked true hands-free, unattended operations—transforming operational efficiency and setting new standards for what truly autonomous cleaning can deliver to our customers."
Experience at CMS Berlin
The Self-Cleaning Docking Station will debut at CMS Berlin 2025, held from September 23–26 at Messe Berlin, Germany. Visitors can discover the innovation at Hall 2.2, Stand 218.
