One of the most difficult challenges in the Car Wash Industry is of course the labor. The Car Wash Industry is one of the most labor-intensive businesses there is and controlling the labor costs is a key to profitability. But finding low cost labor must be complimented with finding the quality labor, which is well groomed, honest and respectful of the customers and their cars. If not you will lose customers and repeat business.Most full service car washes average about a 15-20% regular customer rate and to sustain a higher repeat customer grouping the customer has to feel good about their car wash experience. If this is done correctly the repeat business will be paralleled by word of mouth referrals to their friends, business associates and/or family members. So, it is critical to get the best possible labor and watch the costs. But there will soon maybe a better way to do all this and more. How so you ask? Well, thru robot workers of course.Enter the age of the Robotic Car Wash. Actually robotics in car washing is nothing new, in fact it has always been a very automated operation, then again so has the entire automotive industry since Henry Ford's mass production of the Model T and you could have it in any color as long as it was black, because black paint could dry in only 10-minutes. Ah ha, so car washing is all about production right? Right.Drying of the car is a very difficult task for a robot, but hardly impossible with the latest robotic engineering now available. In fact if a car was parked between to reference lines the robot could dry the car never pressing down to hard using the latest MIT Haptic Sensor Technology on a Carnegie Mellon Robotic Arm. Even able to lift up the windshield wipers and dry underneath, get all the door jams and along the luggage rack cosmetic feature on top of your SUV.
