Innovative Technology of the Floor Marking Robot ‘Mapro’

Compared to traditional manual marking methods, Mapro offers superior precision, reduces work time, and lowers costs.

Notably, it alleviates the burden of nighttime labor, addressing workforce shortages and reducing worker fatigue, thereby improving overall working conditions. Additionally, the robot dramatically reduces the margin of error from the conventional 50–100 cm range to just ±0.5 cm, significantly enhancing work quality. As exhibitions continue to scale up, Mapro’s role is expected to become increasingly vital.

A COEX representative stated, “The introduction of Mapro not only improves the efficiency of exhibition preparation but also enhances the quality of work results and the safety of the work environment.” They further added, “We plan to respond to various exhibition requirements through future technological upgrades.”

A New Future Opened by Digital Transformation
