Roborock Qrevo Curv and Qrevo Edge: Setting New Standards with Industry-First AdaptiLift Chassis and Revolutionary Dual Anti-Tangle System    

Roborock Qrevo Curv and Qrevo Edge introduce an industry-first innovation, the AdaptiLift Chassis, which incorporate an independently adjustable three-wheel control (left and right main wheels, and omni-wheel), allowing these models to dynamically adjust up to 10mm in height. This significantly enhances their ability to clean various floor types in different home environments, by extending cleaning coverage to include mid-to-long pile carpets, and navigating double-layer thresholds up to 4cm high, thus setting a new industry benchmark.

The introduction of the revolutionary dual anti-tangle system sets the Roborock Qrevo Curv and Qrevo Edge apart, integrating a revolutionary DuoDivide Main Brush and a FlexiArm Arc Side Brush. The DuoDivide Main Brush comprises dual short bristle rollers with spiral blades designed to efficiently direct hair towards the dustbin inlet without tangling. This unique design effectively prevents hair from tangling around the brushes or accumulating at the ends, achieving a remarkable 0% tangling rate and 100% removal rate as certified by SGS.

Equipped with a powerful 18,500Pa HyperForce Suction and FlexiArm Technology featuring an extendable side brush and right-side mop, these robot vacuums ensure meticulous cleanliness by reaching edges seamlessly, significantly boosting cleaning efficiency. Both models come with the Multifunctional Dock 3.0 with the 75°C hot mop washing feature, removing over 99.99% of bacteria on the spinning mops to further underscore their cleaning prowess.

Crafted with a harmonious blend of aesthetics and functionality to effortlessly tackle intricate cleaning tasks, the Roborock Qrevo Curv stands out with its exclusive all-in-one dock that complements the vacuum’s sleek, rounded design.

The technology is the result of over five years of collaboration by Roborock, Infineon, pmd, and OFlim, and has now successfully reached mass production.

“The close relationship with Roborock is a great example of how our innovative semiconductor technologies translate into benefits for the end consumer,” said Andreas Kopetz, Vice President Ambient Sensing at Infineon. “We are proud that Infineon’s REAL3™ hybrid ToF solution is supporting Roborock as it enters a new era of slim and high performing cleaning robots, starting with Qrevo slim, the first and slimmest dual-light 3D ToF-navigation robot vacuum cleaner in the industry so far.”

Distinguished by its unparalleled mapping capabilities, the Roborock Qrevo Slim sets a new industry benchmark by meticulously capturing height and depth data. This comprehensive understanding of its surroundings empowers the Roborock Qrevo Slim to navigate with utmost precision and obstacles efficiently, effortlessly recognizing and reacting to up to 73 types of obstacles. Noteworthy is its swift response to unexpected obstacles like pets; the device intelligently halts its main brush and adjusts its trajectory in anticipation of furry companions, ensuring their undisturbed peace.

Equipped with the FlexiArm Side Brush and Mop, the powerful DuoRoller Riser Brush, and 11,000Pa suction, the Roborock Qrevo Slim guarantees thorough cleaning performance. Paired with the upgraded Multifunctional Dock 3.0, featuring enhanced mop washing and self-cleaning capabilities, the device offers a truly hands-free cleaning experience with improved power and intelligence, elevating cleaning to a whole new level.
