Robot car-washer,"Robosen21"

Japanese export organization Jetro announced a new robot truck and bus washer called "Robosen21". The robot washer saves cost, space and time of big car-washing by using only 120 liter water in 7 minutes, 0.2 liter gasoline for a 12 meter body truck or bus. The purchase by Japanese leading bus companies and logisticscompanies is rapidly increasing. The price and maintenance costs are almost 1/4~1/5 of gatetypeauto-washer. The price of a high pressure water car washer is lower but must spend more time (1.5 ~2 hours) with 600 liters water and must be done by hands. Only 7x17 meter paved ground, electric-power, water facilities, rail etc is needed. installations are not necessary.
