The Design
About T16 Mix Gulvvasker
T16 Mix er en gulvvasker designet til rengøring i hele hjemmet. Fem redskabskonfigurationer, herunder en gulvvasker, en støvsuger og en midefjerner, er kombineret i én slank enhed via et aftageligt strømmodul. Et dobbelt robotarmsystem med kunstig intelligens når kanter, hjørner og genstridige pletter. Torsionsfjederbalancering, tilpasset fra rumfartsteknologi, modvirker tyngdekraften og giver let enhåndsbetjening og smidig styring. Kabinettet er fremstillet af PET med in-mold labeling for en sømløs og ridsefast finish.

- Production Technology
- The T16 Mix adopts premium in-mold labeling technology, fusing scratch-resistant texture films with PET casings in a one-piece design for a seamless finish and long-lasting durability. High-precision torsion spring balancing mechanisms, proven in aerospace applications, are integrated into the core mechanical structure to counteract gravity. The AI dual-robotic arm system consists of high-torque servo motors and flexible composite material components, working in seamless tandem.
- Design Challenge
- Through continuous comprehensive verification, the design team turned multiple groundbreaking technologies into reality, delivering professional-grade whole-house cleaning with a single product. This requires stable switching and seamless power transfer of the detachable multi-form structure within a compact body, while ensuring the AI dual-robotic arm system delivers precise, edge-to-edge cleaning with zero moisture residue through dynamic coordination in complex home settings.
- Research
- To tackle scattered household cleaning tasks and redundant tools, the design team focused on modular architecture feasibility, motion control algorithms for bionic cleaning robotic arms, and ergonomics-based force feedback structures during the design process.
With its highly integrated components, intelligent coordination modules and ultra-lightweight construction, it covers all cleaning scenarios and reduces operational effort, setting an integrated design benchmark for the industry. - Inspiration
- The design team took an in-depth look at the issues of redundant household tools and heavy cleaning workloads in modern homes. They recognized homes cluttered with a jumble of single-purpose cleaning gadgets, while traditional floor cleaners prove awkward to handle, miss hard-to-reach spots and leave behind lingering moisture. The T16 Mix answers the call for a fully efficient, effortless and elegant cleaning solution—a quest for cleaning perfection in its ideal form.
- Project Duration
- The project will finish in April 2026 in Suzhou
- Operation Flow
- Users select functions via intuitive buttons and a clear display screen. During cleaning, the T16 Mix features an ultra-light grip and smooth 360° steering, letting users easily push, pull and turn with just one hand. The AI robotic arm adjusts automatically to edges, corners and tough stains, letting users clean without extra labor. The modular design allows for easy form conversion—switching from a floor cleaner to a handheld vacuum feels intuitive and straightforward.
