About KELO Robotics
KELO Robotics GmbH is a startup from Augsburg that develops mobile robotic systems for intralogistics and industrial automation. The core of the products is the KELO drive family: ultra-compact, integrated smart wheel drives (KELO drive KD 100x with 125 kg and KD 165x with 500 kg payload) that operate without gearboxes, thereby enabling inherent safety and a payload-to-weight ratio of 5:1. Building on this, the company offers autonomous mobile logistics robots, including a Pallet Mover with up to 1500 kg load capacity, as well as ROBILE, a modular AMR platform for industrial prototypes and research. The robots are based on a modular system of quasi-standardized components from the automotive industry and can be quickly adapted to customer requirements regarding payload, geometry and design. The 14-member engineering team covers mechanical, electronic, mechatronic and software development. The business areas include standard products, custom robot designs (lot size 1 and lot size 100) and the Robot as a Service rental model.
