Application Developer, Cimcorp North America

“After a week to prepare the map and pick/drop positions, we turned on our client’s fleet and were able to run full production the same day. We have 12 AGVs and 6 loading positions delivering to 80 unloading positions. The performance and stability of BlueBotics’ ANT lab software has really saved us a lot of time during commissioning."

Miguel de Sebastian

CEO, DTA

“ANT is great but what makes also the difference is the service you have. I get an answer immediately, and you always answer. This makes the difference.”

Thanassis Papaleloudis

CEO, LIFTCO E.E.

“BlueBotics’ technology is the most robust natural feature navigation software around. We couldn’t believe its potential, or the precision possible, until we saw it with our own eyes. And when integrating ANT into our forklift trucks, the support was excellent, simply the best.”

Francis Tan

Director, Azimuth Technologies

“We relied on BlueBotics’ very helpful and professional engineering support to develop an automated solution for transferring super-heavy components. Our AGV works hand-in-hand with our robotic arm station, delivering high efficiency with less manpower.”
