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.
Automated guided vehicles: Definition, advantages, costs
Mobile robotics, particularly Automated Guided Vehicle (AGV) systems, are now essential for material transport within companies. Used widely in production and logistics, AGVs automate the transport of goods and serve as assembly platforms, facilitating a seamless and transparent material flow. They are pivotal in advancing Industry 4.0. Discover key insights about AGV solutions, explore their varied applications, and understand the cost factors involved, all right here.
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.
SAFELOG at LogiMAT 2024
On March 19, 2024, it was time again: LogiMAT became the focal point of the logistics industry for three days. Over 67,000 visitors came to Stuttgart in total to learn about the latest trends and innovations. SAFELOG was also present as an exhibitor once again, and we had plenty of new products in tow.
Mobile robot SAFELOG XS1 accelerates automatic small parts warehouse retrieval
Fast, lightweight, cost-effective – in three words, that’s the new mobile transport robot (MTR) from SAFELOG, which premiered at LogiMAT 2024. The compact vehicle is particularly suitable for an efficient goods transportation of load carriers, for example, in automated small parts warehouses (ASPW). The AGV with the model designation XS1 is specially designed for the requirements in fulfillment. Its speed makes it the perfect solution to minimize transport times between pick ports and packing stations.
Always a good presence: SAFELOG at events in Q3 and Q4
After the successful events in Q1 and Q2 / 2023, the SAFELOG team didn’t take it easy in the offices in the second half of the year either, but continued to be busy at various trade fairs and congresses. These ranged from recruitment fairs and information days to specialist congresses with exhibition areas, all of which we attended physically or digitally.
So that Markt Schwaben shines sustainably
Doing something for the environment and for the market town in which you are located as a company – that is the reason why Michael Wolter, founder and owner of SAFELOG GmbH, decided to take this unusual action. As in many other communities, there is a need for action in Markt Schwaben when it comes to street lighting. The offer to bear the cost of converting 100 lamps was therefore gladly accepted by Mayor Michael Stolze.
SAFELOG delivers 60 AGVs to Dresselhaus
Joseph Dresselhaus GmbH & Co. KG, Europe’s leading supplier of C-parts to industry and retail, is relying on mobile transport robots from SAFELOG for the modernization of its warehouse in Herford. In the first expansion phase, the previously manual transport of pallets and small load carriers will be automated with the help of 60 SAFELOG AGVs of the types AGV X1 tt and AGV S3. Dresselhaus is thus setting the course for an increase in warehouse productivity and safe material flow processes.
