NODE Robotics and SYNAOS Partner to Drive Seamless Interoperability in Mobile Robotics
Friday, March 14, 2025
NODE Robotics and SYNAOS are joining forces to advance seamless interoperability and intelligent fleet management in intralogistics. As pioneers in German mobile robot software development, NODE Robotics provides NODE.OS, a scalable autonomy platform that enables flexible navigation and efficient robot operations. SYNAOS complements this with its Intralogistics Management Platform (IMP), orchestrating diverse mobile robots through standardized interfaces like VDA 5050. This collaboration delivers vendor-agnostic, plug-and-play automation solutions, ensuring efficient, scalable, and highly reliable fleet operations in dynamic industrial environments.
STUTTGART and HANNOVER, Germany, March 6, 2025 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- NODE Robotics is pleased to announce a new partnership with SYNAOS, a specialist in intralogistics software. This collaboration strengthens the shared commitment to seamless interoperability and efficient orchestration of autonomous mobile robots (AMRs) in dynamic industrial environments.
"With our VDA 5050 adapter, we are pleased to offer a standardized integration for NODE.OS, further supporting vendor-independent fleet managers. As demand for interoperable intralogistics solutions grows, this strengthens flexibility and efficiency in fleet orchestration."As part of an ongoing end-customer project in the automotive sector, the SYNAOS Intralogistics Management Platform (IMP) is successfully orchestrating mobile robots from SHERPA Mobile Robotics' F-series, which operate using NODE Robotics' software and adhere to the VDA 5050 standard. Before deployment, the SHERPA Model F completed SYNAOS' rigorous nine-stage VDA 5050 onboarding process, ensuring smooth and standardized integration.
This collaboration highlights the role of standardized, software-driven interoperability in enabling flexible and scalable intralogistics operations. By combining NODE Robotics' proven mobile robotics software with SYNAOS' advanced orchestration platform, companies benefit from optimized fleet coordination, seamless integration, and increased efficiency in their automated logistics processes.
"Our newly launched collaboration with NODE Robotics marks a significant milestone for us: The combination of NODE's great software and a powerful fleet management solution like our SYNAOS IMP unlocks entirely new possibilities for flexibility and customized process control in intralogistics," says Dr. Philipp Schäfers, Head of Partner Management & Business Development at SYNAOS. "The onboarding of the SHERPA robot was just the starting point for all future onboardings of other mobile robot types that rely on NODE.move as their proprietary navigation software. Additional onboardings of robots with NODE software are already underway and planned--and will gradually be listed in our Mobile Robot Finder," Schäfers adds.
CEO & Co-Founder of NODE Robotics Dr. Stefan Doerr-Laukien sees this partnership as a significant step toward the future development of the industry and the continued advancement of standardized interoperability: "Our navigation solution, NODE.move, is a key component of our NODE.OS software platform, designed to offer maximum flexibility across diverse applications. It seamlessly supports various robot types, hardware components, peripheral devices, and software systems, ensuring broad compatibility and efficiency. As the demand for vendor-independent fleet managers and intralogistics platforms continues to grow, integrating solutions like SYNAOS IMP becomes essential. With our dedicated software adapter, this integration is now a standard feature within NODE.OS--providing our customers with a ready-to-use, seamless connection to fleet orchestration platforms."
Following the successful integration of the two companies, NODE Robotics is now looking forward to further collaboration with SYNAOS in the field of intralogistics. The aim is to drive seamless interoperability and intelligent fleet management. NODE Robotics reinforces its commitment to scalable, vendor-agnostic automation solutions that enhance efficiency, flexibility and operational reliability by ensuring plug-and-play compatibility with SYNAOS IMP.
For those interested in learning more about this integration and how it can optimize their automation strategy, we invite you to meet us in person at LogiMAT 2025 in Stuttgart from March 11-13.
