BERLIN , Sept. 8, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- At IFA 2026, ECOVACS is advancing the roller-mopping category it pioneered and helped define with the latest evolution of its proprietary OZMO ROLLER Instant Self-Washing Mopping Technology—OZMO ROLLER 3.0, featured in the new DEEBOT X12S OmniCyclone.
ECOVACS first introduced OZMO ROLLER with the DEEBOT X8 series in 2024, bringing the continuous clean-water circulation principle of floor washers into robotic vacuum cleaners. Since then, the technology has evolved through three generations—from the original OZMO ROLLER, to OZMO ROLLER 2.0 on DEEBOT X11, and now OZMO ROLLER 3.0 on DEEBOT X12S OmniCyclone.
The technology has also been adopted at scale. According to ECOVACS' internal shipment data, more than 2.8 million OZMO ROLLER-equipped units had been shipped globally as of July 2026.
