About Botfellows
Botfellows GmbH, based at Technologie-Campus 1 in Chemnitz, develops modular automation and software solutions for industrial robotics. The portfolio comprises three product lines: RobCraft, a no-code teaching framework with AI/computer vision process capabilities for robotic applications such as polishing, deburring, welding, spraying, painting, inspection and adhesive dispensing; Dynamic Safety, an intelligent safety solution for fenceless human-robot collaboration with dynamic speed-and-separation monitoring based on smart vision, LIDAR and RADAR sensor technology; and SafetyTwin, a modular framework for dynamic risk assessment and safety planning with digital twins. In addition to its products, the company offers technology integration, custom integration projects and R&D partnerships. The solutions target system integrators, robot OEMs and manufacturing companies from industries such as Automotive, Electronics, Food and Beverage, Logistics, Pharma and Healthcare, and Metal and Machinery. The company's management consists of Dr. Mohamad Bdiwi, Paul Eichler and Sebastian Krusche.
