Established in 2013, the mission of Q-Bot is to transform the built environment by becoming the global leader in robotic and AI systems that apply materials in order to construct, maintain and upgrade buildings. To drive this ambition, Q-Bot has developed a robotic solution that can fit through a small opening and spray insulation in situ, without having to deconstruct the house. Of course, the reliability and performance of Q-Bot mobile robots are only as good as their component parts, which is why the company undertook comprehensive research before committing to a supplier of wheel hub bearings. "The working environment for our mobile robots is usually dirty and confined," explains Chris Hamblin, Senior Engineering Manager at Q-Bot, which has its headquarters in Wandsworth, London. "As a result, the robots must be robust and powerful, yet adopt the most compact form possible."
