Product Description
Apptronik’s Apollo can carry up to 55 pounds and is designed to function in plants and warehouses and may expand into industries like retail and construction. An impact zone allows the robot to stop its motion when detecting nearby moving objects while swappable batteries that last four hours each keep Apollo productive. In 2024, Apptronik partnered with Mercedes-Benz to explore how Apollo can automate various manual tasks. And the company is primed to expand its production of Apollo, thanks to a $350 million funding round.
