This state-of-the-art equipment, named Ant Handle, will open up a new era in automated material handling at factories and manufacturing facilities. It will enable manufacturers to operate traditional manual pallet jacks in automatic way, and thus allow them to re-arrange and optimize use of workforce. The device will provide all types of operations: lifting and setting down pallets, moving and maneuvering them around manufacturing floors, without needing to replace existing inventory of pallets and pallet jacks.
Ant Robotics participated in the accelerator program run by mHUB, one of the nation’s leading independent hardtech innovation and manufacturing centers. Ant Handle was designed and developed in close collaboration with mHUB. Ant Robotics is planning to present Ant Handle at the Demo Days, scheduled for November 16 and 17, 2021.

“During the six-month accelerated incubation program, its participants have made great progress in product development, investor relations, and client outreach”, said Thierry Van Landegem, mHUB Executive Director. “We are looking forward to bright, successful presentations at the demo days. With new, innovative products and services, program’s participants are well positioned for further business growth.”
“This is the breakthrough device”, said Max Antonenko, Ant Robotics co-founder and CEO. “It allows our manufacturing clients to automate and optimize operations in the most seamless, natural way. I am proud of our engineering team. I also extend my thanks to mHUB innovation task force: with their participation and dedication, we accomplished the project in very short time.”
