We have manufactured and installed our 5000 mobile robot, representing a milestone in our history.
Since our initial founding we’ve been exporting to over 17 expanding through 8 subsidiaries all around the world in Europe, North America and South America achieving 5000 mobile robots installed.
Started in 2009 with a vision for news ways to improve intralogistics operations in production centers, warehouses, and distribution centers, along with a team of talented experts in material handling and robotic engineering. We are proud and excited to announce that we have now manufactured 5000 Mobile robots, said Juan Prieto, CEO of Kivnon.
In late 2009, Juan Prieto and Luis Gómez, co-founders of Kivnon, registered the brand and designed their first mobile robot, the K10 model, which was the most successful product in the automotive sector at that time.
