Europe does not innovate at all! 🇪🇺 Such statements have been appearing recently. Lately, we have been known for the fact that it is difficult to drink from our plastic bottles because of the regulated caps. Fortunately, this is not true. Spoiler: I now have a great strategy how to drink EU-capped bottles! Reach out if you have any problems! 🍼 Just look at the European startup ecosystem and the momentum that accompanies it. Btw. thanks for pushing this @andreasklinger (@euinc_petition) and @HarryStebbings (@ProjectEurope_) and all the contributors of this initiatives. And today I wanted to show you a robotics company that is creating real innovation right in the heart of beautiful Bavaria! 🥨 That's Filics! Founded in 2019 by engineers from the Technical University of Munich. They are developing a unique robot pairing that autonomously lifts and moves pallets using minimal floor space. Each of their units can carry up to 1.2 tons and maneuver with the speed of 1.2 m/s. The system's autonomous mobility allows it to drive completely underneath and through pallets placed on the floor, without requiring turning space, making it a standout solution for high-density warehouses. Future plans include adapting the technology for autonomous truck loading in under five minutes. Last year they have secured €13.5 million in fresh funding to scale its operations. 💰 There's more companies in Europe like this. I hope to put more of them in the spotlight this year, so they get the credits they deserve! 🦾 ~~ ♻️ Join the weekly robotics newsletter, and never miss any news →
