The problem addressed
Machine damage and production quality decline from late detection of oil leaks under CNC machines.
Draft mission flow
- 1The compact Go2 robot enters under CNC machines and scans surfaces invisible to humans under UV fluorescent light.
- 2UV lighting distinguishes hydraulic oil, lubricant, and coolant stains by different fluorescent colors.
- 3Leak size, spread rate, and source type classified by AI; machine-specific leak profile generated.
- 4Maintenance work order automatically opened in CMMS for the relevant CNC machine; machine shutdown recommendation transmitted to MES if leak severity is critical.
Proposed hardware
- HD Macro Camera
- UV Fluorescent Lighting
- Moisture Sensor
- Compact 2D LiDAR
Proposed software
- Navigation
- Compact SLAM navigating under CNC machines with low-profile (15cm height) obstacle clearance
- Model
- Oil Stain Segmentation and Leak Source Classification (Hydraulic/Lubrication/Coolant)
- Integration
- MES and CMMS Maintenance Planning Integration

Values are manufacturer data. Scenario fit is determined by comparing these limits with site conditions.
From scenario to installation
Feasibility is determined by the site survey: floor and route, network coverage, the charging point, intervention responsibilities and the conditions under which the robot must stop. The survey report defines the scope, the constraints and the commissioning steps.
