SAFELOG and Mercedes-Benz expand cooperation
SAFELOG and Mercedes-Benz have decided to expand their strategic cooperation in the field of fully automated intralogistics. Among other things, the cooperation includes the integration of control software developed by Mercedes-Benz and SAFELOG into the production...
Politics meets robotics
At the beginning of May 2025 Ilse Aigner, President of the Bavarian State Parliament, visited SAFELOG's headquarters in Markt Schwaben near Munich. She was accompanied by Dr. Andreas Lenz (MdB), Thomas Huber (MdL), District Administrator Olaf von Löwis of Menar and a...
TRUMPF and SAFELOG cooperate: Easy automation of material flow for SMEs
SAFELOG and TRUMPF have entered into a strategic partnership to make it easier for small and medium-sized sheet metal processing companies to automate their material handling. The jointly developed "Material Flow Kit" enables companies to automate their material flow...
Perfect for transport tasks in G2P applications
The SAFELOG GT1 mobile robot has been specially designed for efficient pallet and shelf transport in fulfillment centers and intralogistics. Thanks to its compact dimensions and agility, the GT1 is ideal for use in confined working environments and dynamic logistics...
SAFELOG eliminates „AGV“
As the term AGV is no longer up-to-date and does not fully reflect the range of applications for the devices, SAFELOG is refining the naming of its robot models. The previous part of the model name, “AGV” (Automated Guided Vehicle), has been removed and replaced by a new, clear structure. This change is driven by the continuous expansion of the product lineup and the additional use cases that can now be handled by the mobile robots. The new product names will make it easier to identify the right devices for specific requirements.
SAFELOG participates in the RoX research project
The goal of the RoX collaborative project, funded by the Federal Ministry for Economic Affairs and Climate Action (BMWK), is to establish a digital ecosystem. This ecosystem aims to facilitate or enable the use of innovative AI-based robotic solutions across various practical applications and industries. Manufacturing companies, as well as the logistics and service sectors, will particularly benefit from the project’s outcomes.
SAFELOG relies on innovative robot localisation from Opteran
Together with Opteran Technologies, SAFELOG is implementing a novel localisation technology that outperforms existing systems such as LiDAR or methods such as SLAM in terms of robustness, efficiency and flexibility. It is a visual localisation method based on the simulation of insect brains. The first transport robots should be equipped with it by 2025.
Mercedes-Benz and SAFELOG win IFOY Award 2024
Together with Mercedes-Benz, SAFELOG has won the prestigious IFOY Award 2024 in the “Integrated Customer Solution” category. This award recognizes the outstanding innovative strength and efficiency of the software-based AGV fleets at Mercedes-Benz in Sindelfingen through excellent cooperation between Mercedes-Benz and SAFELOG.
IFOY Award 2024 – the excitement rises!
In mid-April, we successfully completed the three jury rounds for the IFOY Award 2024 at TEST CAMP INTRALOGISTICS and can now count ourselves among the select circle of Best in Intralogistics. With the project in Hall 46 at Mercedes-Benz in Sindelfingen, we were able to impress the judges in the Integrated Customer Solution category.
However, no winner has yet been announced in Dortmund. The jurors will not vote on who will win the IFOY Award 2024 until after the event; the winners in the individual categories will be announced on June 14 in Baden near Vienna. The excitement will therefore build over the coming weeks. However, more information and a video about the project are already available here.
Partnerships around LogiMAT 2024
Those who want to assert themselves in the market need strong partners! Around LogiMAT, the SAFELOG partner network was strengthened with three new partners: Opteran Technologies, Stäubli and Schulte Lagertechnik.
Review: IFOY AWARD & AGV Mesh-up 2024
The VDMA AGV Mesh-up, which is held as part of the TEST CAMP INTRALOGISTICS and the IFOY TEST DAYS, is a fixed date in the SAFELOG calendar. The application for the IFOY Award in the “Integrated Customer Solutions” category, which SAFELOG tackled together with Mercedes-Benz for the first time, was a premiere.
We proudly present…the SAFELOG Tour de Fairs 2024
We have big plans for this year! If you haven’t had the chance to meet SAFELOG live yet, we would be delighted to welcome you at one of our upcoming events.
