NODE Robotics

Flexibility and autonomy are core requirements for the factory of the future. In the field of intralogistics, AMRs are the key to meeting these requirements.However, the current patchwork of incompatible and inadequate SW solutions for AMRs on the market prevents the spread of this key technology and puts fleet operators further into vendorlock-in situations.With NODE.OS, we provide an end-to-end software solution for operating multi-vendor and heterogeneous AMR fleets with high autonomy and minimal commissioning efforts which can be seamlessly integrated into every production plant.
