Robot Fleet Coverage Area Calculator

1. Enter fleet size
Use the number of robots assigned to the area during the selected period.

2. Set operating hours
Enter scheduled hours per robot for that same period.

3. Enter area rate
Use a realistic average service rate in square meters per hour for one robot under similar conditions.

4. Adjust utilization
Reduce scheduled time for charging, travel without service, refills, waiting, maintenance, and other nonproductive time.

5. Compare with site area
Use estimated coverage against the actual serviceable area, not necessarily the building gross area.

Theoretical coverage = Robots × Operating hours × Area rate Estimated coverage = Theoretical coverage × Utilization ÷ 100

Where:

• Robots — robots assigned to the work
• Operating hours — scheduled hours per robot
• Area rate — average serviceable area per robot-hour
• Utilization — productive share of scheduled time

Assumptions: The area rate is treated as an average and robots are assumed to operate independently. Rework, overlap, inaccessible zones, route geometry, and traffic are not modeled separately.

What the result means

The fleet has an estimated productive area capacity of 42,000 square meters over the selected period.

Coverage represents serviceable area capacity, not unique mapped floor area.

Given:

• 8 robots
• 10 hours per robot
• 700 m²/hour area rate
• 75% productive utilization

Calculation:
Theoretical coverage = 8 × 10 × 700 = 56,000 m²
Estimated coverage = 56,000 × 0.75 = 42,000 m²

Result:
42,000 m²

Interpretation:
The fleet has an estimated productive area capacity of 42,000 square meters over the selected period.
