OrionStar Robotics announced the successful deployment of its autonomous delivery robot CarryBot at Yanai Electric & Machinery Co., Ltd.(柳井電機), a leading Japanese manufacturer founded in 1947. This marks a significant step in helping Japanese SMEs address growing labor shortages through intelligent automation.
The news was featured in Japan’s authoritative industrial publication Nikkan Kogyo Shimbun, under the headline “Automating Cargo Transport.” The article highlighted how CarryBot is now operating inside Yanai’s factory, streamlining internal logistics and reducing manual transport time across the production floor.
Quick Deployment: Fully operational within 1 day, with minimal setup.
High-Precision Navigation: Powered by advanced LiDAR, depth cameras, and infrared sensors.
User-Friendly Interface: Operated via a simple touchscreen, no coding required.
Cost-Effective for SMEs: Designed for flexible use in factories, warehouses, and logistics hubs.
By automating the transport of goods between workstations, CarryBot helps improve operational efficiency while reducing reliance on manual labor—a pressing concern in Japan’s aging society and tightening workforce environment. The deployment at Yanai Electric is particularly notable because it required no major infrastructure changes, showcasing CarryBot’s adaptability to legacy industrial environments.
