From a severely deteriorated slab to DM1/FM1 automation precision in a highly aggressive two-week remediation schedule.
AppliedeX was brought in to take a 30,000-square-foot slab that could not carry a high-performance HAI Robotics system and turn it into a verified, defined-movement operating surface — inside a two-week window, without disrupting the wider facility.
The existing 30,000-square-foot slab was not suitable for a high-performance HAI Robotics system. Decades of movement, deterioration, and previous repairs created a highly inconsistent operating surface.
A geometrically unstable foundation preventing safe deployment of the ASRS systems.
AppliedeX developed a remediation program combining high-density 3D analysis, total-station control, engineered concrete repairs, precision robotic-path grinding, and ultra-precise verification.
We captured a multi-million-point surface model of the existing slab. This data was then precisely coordinated with the proposed HAI Robotics layout to identify exact collision points.
Permanent points kept the survey, repair, and grinding teams working from the exact same coordinate system, eliminating drift and ensuring absolute precision across the 30,000 sq. ft. zone.
Before grinding, underlying structural issues were addressed. Damaged joints, severe cracks, spalls, expansion-joint transitions, and displaced panels were systematically rebuilt or corrected.
Material was removed strategically to correct geometry exclusively where it affected the robot wheelbase, minimizing dust and preserving overall slab integrity.
Defined-movement paths were meticulously verified upon completion with a digital profilograph capable of measuring deviations down to 0.1 mm.
AppliedeX successfully transformed a heavily deteriorated and geometrically unstable concrete slab into a high-precision automation platform.
