It beats as it sweeps as it cleans.

Interpretation
The line is a tightly rhythmic slogan built on repetition (“as it… as it…”) to suggest simultaneous, effortless efficiency: one action accomplishes multiple tasks at once. Read as advertising copy, it promises a device or process that not only performs its primary function (“beats”) but also does ancillary work (“sweeps” and “cleans”) without extra labor. More broadly, it exemplifies how sound-patterning (alliteration and a driving meter) can make a claim memorable and persuasive, compressing a complex value proposition—speed, thoroughness, convenience—into a single, chant-like sentence.
