HTG – AT8 – Autonomous Floor Grinder – 18.5KW

High Tech Grinding AT8 — Autonomous Intelligent Floor Grinder

Redefine What’s Possible in Large-Area Concrete Grinding

The High Tech Grinding AT8 is not just a floor grinder — it’s a fully autonomous grinding system engineered for the demands of large-scale commercial and industrial floor preparation. Powered by the Atlas FSG  integration, the AT8 uses advanced spatial mapping technology to scan the designated work area, generate optimised grinding plans, and execute them independently — delivering consistent, high-quality results with minimal operator intervention.

Whether you’re preparing warehouse floors for hardener, polishing concrete in a distribution centre, or removing coatings across tens of thousands of square metres, the AT8 brings a new level of productivity, precision, and labour efficiency to every project.

Atlas FSG Technology — Autonomous Intelligence, Built In

At the core of the AT8 is its integrated Atlas FSG autonomous system — a cutting-edge platform that elevates this machine far beyond conventional ride-on or remote-operated grinders.

• Area Mapping & Scanning — The AT8 scans and maps the work environment before grinding begins, building a precise spatial model of the floor area, obstacles, columns, and boundaries.
• Automated Grinding Plans — Using the scanned data, Atlas FSG generates an intelligent grinding path plan optimised for coverage efficiency, pass sequencing, and consistent material removal.
• Self-Driving Operation — Once the plan is set, the AT8 executes autonomously, navigating the floor without continuous operator control. One operator can oversee multiple machines simultaneously.
• Repeatable, Consistent Results — Eliminating human variation in path tracking and pressure application means every square metre is ground to the same standard, every time.

Built for Large-Scale Performance

With an 18.5 kW (25 HP) motor and four 315 mm grinding discs spanning an 852 mm working width, the AT8 is purpose-built for high-production environments. The wide disc speed range — from 350 to 1950 rpm — gives operators the flexibility to tailor the machine to the application, from aggressive coating removal to fine surface preparation for polishing.

Adjustable grinding pressure from 214.5 to 400 kg (472.9–881.8 lbs) allows the AT8 to adapt to varying floor conditions and hardness levels, ensuring optimal tooling engagement and consistent cut rates without operator guesswork.

Technical Specifications

Who Is the AT8 For?

The AT8 is the ideal solution for:

• Large-scale concrete polishing contractors working on warehouses, logistics hubs, and manufacturing facilities
• Flooring companies seeking to reduce labour costs on high-square-metre projects
• Industrial facility managers requiring consistent floor preparation for epoxy, hardener, or polished concrete systems
• Operations running multiple shifts, where autonomous grinding can continue with reduced supervision
• Projects with tight timelines where production rate and consistency are critical

Why Choose the AT8?

Labour Efficiency — Autonomous operation dramatically reduces the number of skilled operators required per project. One person can manage multiple machines, cutting your direct labour cost per square metre.

Consistency at Scale — Human fatigue, path deviation, and inconsistent pressure are eliminated. The AT8 delivers the same grind quality on hour one as it does on hour eight.

Productivity — A working width of 852 mm combined with autonomous path planning means fewer passes, less rework, and faster project completion.

Safety — Removing operators from prolonged grinding exposure reduces dust inhalation risk, fatigue-related incidents, and repetitive strain injuries on large projects.

Future-Ready Technology — The Atlas FSG platform represents the direction the industry is moving. Investing in the AT8 today positions your business at the forefront of autonomous surface preparation.
