The FOD*BOSS works by capturing debris as it passes over the tarmac. The force of friction and a series of specially designed brushes scoop up foreign objects and hold them in an easy to empty mesh capture zone. With a sweep width of 8 feet, 16 feet or 24 feet, you can clean up to 3 million square feet per hour, at speeds from 4 mph to 25 mph. The FOD*BOSS is now standard equipment at international airports, military bases & local airstrips around the world.
The FOD*BOSS will collect all types of debris left behind by suction and vacuum sweepers, from large metallic objects to very fine sand.
