Overview
ASTI Mobile Robotics Group was a Spanish autonomous mobile robot (AMR) manufacturer headquartered in Burgos, Spain. Founded in 1982, ASTI developed a broad portfolio of AMRs including autonomous towing vehicles, goods-to-person solutions, unit carriers, and box movers, along with fleet management and cloud-based traceability software.
The company supported one of Europe's largest installed AMR fleets across automotive, logistics, food & beverage, and pharmaceuticals in 20 countries. ASTI was acquired by ABB in July 2021 for 90M and became ABB's AMR business division.
