DESCRIPTION
WasteShark is a Cleaning-Robots from RanMarine Technology. It is built for Cleaning, Monitoring. Key figures: 72 kg, 300 min runtime, 60 kg payload, released 2017.
WasteShark is RanMarine's original remote-controlled aquadrone for removing floating waste, biomass and oil from harbours, marinas, canals and ponds, first launched commercially in 2017. A pilot on shore steers it with a handheld remote that shows a live camera feed, so it can reach under boardwalks, bridges and into tight corners without anyone going on the water. Its open, whale-shark-like mouth funnels debris into a 160-litre basket that holds up to 60 kg. The 72 kg, 1.65 m electric drone runs silently and emission-free for up to 5 hours per charge at up to 3 km/h. It works in waves up to 0.5 m, winds up to 40 km/h and currents up to 3 km/h, and can collect up to 500 kg of waste and cover about 3,000 square metres in a working day. It connects to the RanMarine Connect 4G portal and is assembled in Rotterdam. RanMarine positions it as its most affordable model for calm waters and daily maintenance.
