Guide
Cleaning Bot is a mid-game assembler craft listed with the sales items. It is not an ingredient in further recipes, so its demand comes from selling and from assigning it as a station helper.
Players commonly assign Cleaning Bots at a Casting Machine when they want extra efficiency on fluid-to-solid lines. That assignment is the practical factory use besides filling a sales contract.
A frequent mix-up is treating it like a vacuum you can park in an office. It is not a placeable room cleaner - keep it on the sales line or on the machine that needs the boost.
Tips
- Budget Energy Cell and Circuit Board alongside the plates, polymer, and machinery parts. A 15 second assembler cycle and a stack of 10 make it easy to overbuild if sales demand is thin.
- If you are assigning Cleaning Bots for Casting Machine efficiency, keep a small buffer next to the casters so the line does not stall while you restock sales.
- Do not plan office or decoration layouts around this item. Players who tried to place a vacuum-style cleaner in a personal room could not deploy it that way.

FAQ
Can I place a Cleaning Bot in an office like a vacuum?
No. Cleaning Bot is a crafted sales and station item, not a furniture vacuum. Assign it at a Casting Machine or send it to a sales terminal instead.
What factory job do players actually use Cleaning Bot for?
The usual assignment is Casting Machine efficiency. It is not a general-purpose cleaner for every building, and it is not an ingredient in other recipes.
