Brokk Upgrades SmartPower+ Tech in Demolition Robots

Brokk, a manufacturer of remote-controlled demolition machines, announces the launch of Brokk SmartPower+, a new generation of robots.

The new range of machines, including the Brokk 70⁺, 170⁺, 200⁺, 300⁺ and 500⁺, redefines demolition technology with increased endurance, intelligence and operability. 

Brokk is showcasing the new SmartPower+ generation of robots as well as FIRSTGREEN and Ecovolve equipment at booth C4519 during World of Concrete 2025 from Jan. 21-23.

Brokk’s new range of SmartPower+ robots provide endurance by increasing operational uptime with consistent power delivery over time. Engineered with rugged components, Brokk’s newest generation is resistant to shock, temperature and vibrations — not to mention that all new robots and control boxes are dust and water protected to an IP65 equivalent — leading to reliability regardless of the work conditions. Brokk’s SmartPower+ generation also includes a 87% reduction in cables and connectors, reducing weak points while facilitating servicing and troubleshooting and increasing the lifespan of the robot.

Brokk’s SmartPower+ generation redefines the operating experience by introducing a new and improved lightweight control box weighing less than 3kg (or less than 6.5lbs), which contributes to more enjoyable and comfortable work shifts.

Brokk’s SmartPower+ control box includes the Brokk QuickSwitch and intuitive settings for an improved operating experience, making it easier than ever to operate a Brokk robot, and in turn, easier to find and train operators. With Brokk’s new range of SmartPower+ robots and features, operators can perform the demolition task at hand without shifting their gaze from the machine between commands, and as such, without compromising on performance or safety.

“With nearly five decades of experience, Brokk understands the challenges many industry professionals face in finding skilled operators to get the job done right,” said Martin Krupicka, CEO of Brokk Group. “This is precisely why we are committed to creating solutions for both seasoned professionals and new operators alike, setting a new benchmark in the demolition landscape.”

This new generation of machines features added intelligence for the operator. Visual status updates through incremental light indicators allow the operator to focus their attention on the demolition work at hand while simultaneously monitoring the status of the machine.

Brokk’s SmartPower+ generation is much smarter too, alerting the operator about any unwanted power supply or machine statuses, further contributing to an increase in uptime and overall reliability. SmartPower+ is enabled for future over-the-air upgrades.

“We are thrilled to introduce SmartPower+, a new generation of demolition robots that redefine the demolition landscape. This innovative advancement reflects Brokk’s dedication to pushing the limits and providing operators cutting-edge machines that surpass expectations,” Krupicka said.
