Stretch Debuts in Europe at Otto Group



Boston Dynamics

When retail and logistics giant Otto Group set out to strengthen its operational efficiency and safety, it turned to robotics and automation. The team needed a robust solution for its Hermes Fulfilment site in Haldensleben, Germany, where as many as 40,000 cartons of goods move through on peak days. Here, the Otto Group has become the first company in Europe to deploy the mobile case handling robot Stretch, which unloads floor-loaded trailers and containers.

Stretch supports associates by lifting and lowering heavy inbound cases, and frees them up to focus on other valuable work in the logistics center. The Otto Group has also deployed the Spot robot across three sites to support predictive maintenance efforts by collecting thermal images, conducting acoustic vibration detection, reading analog gauges, and detecting ultrasonic air and gas leaks.

  1. I worked in warehouses for ten plus years and I tell you every time they show these robots, they never show me any damaged boxes or any irregular boxes. Quite amazing to me. 😂

  2. Hermes, evri or otto group what ever, they are the worst company in the world at delivering parcels maybe this will make there company work but i doubt it. nearly no one in the uk uses them if they have any sense as there track record and handling of parcels is atrocious.

  3. it's one part of my job in a post warehouse in France, we have containers with more than 2000 packages every days and it's absolutely not stacked so perfectly in them :'D
    we out 2000 packages in aproximatively 1 hour (1 package per 2 seconds with 2 people in the container)
    tip : if you send something fragile, just not only put a "fragile" stickers on it ! use as much as bubble wrap as possible in the package !

  4. … вспомнил, как надрывал спину 30 лет назад, разгружая контейнер с консервами… наконец то!

  5. It is disappointing that Europe cannot produce such technologies. Boomer managers are causing great harm to Europe, both in terms of artificial intelligence and technological development. Regulation is a good thing, but it has become a reverse gear for the EU in this technology race.
