Inside Mercedes-Benz Vitoria: Custom Vans, No Stock, Full Automation

Can a factory build thousands of custom vehicles—with zero inventory? In this episode of Intralogistics Insiders, we speak with Iván Caño and Antonio Real, the engineers behind automation at Mercedes-Benz Vitoria. They explain how the plant runs high-mix production with just-in-sequence intralogistics, real-time coordination, and fully standardized robotic systems—while keeping flexibility and human expertise at the core. 🔍 Inside the episode: ✅ How intralogistics enables stock-free, made-to-order manufacturing ✅ The logic behind standardizing automation across operations ✅ Why AGVs and synchronized flows improve both speed and safety ✅ What Mercedes-Benz values most in automation partners ✅ How new technologies are tested and validated before go-live Mercedes-Benz Vitoria is proving that precision and adaptability can scale—when automation is designed to move with the factory, not around it. 🎧 Listen now to learn how intralogistics, robotics, and strategy come together to power next-generation manufacturing.

Synchronizing Chaos: The Future of Scalable Intralogistics

Is intralogistics finally ready to scale? Dr. Lennart Bochmann, Co-founder and CPO at SYNAOS, joins Intralogistics Insiders to talk about why most factories still run on reactive, manual systems—and what it takes to bring true orchestration to the shop floor. 💡 “It’s not about the robot—it’s about the system that tells it what to do.” 🔍 Key topics we cover: ✅ Why intralogistics is still a major bottleneck in modern factories. ✅ The real blockers to AMR adoption—and why software is the missing link. ✅ How SYNAOS synchronizes robots, forklifts, and people in real time. ✅ The power of digital twins to test, simulate, and scale operations faster. ✅ Why standards like VDA 5050 are key to future-proofing automation. SYNAOS is helping manufacturers across Europe move from disconnected operations to fully integrated logistics systems—without adding complexity. 💬 Want to know how smart orchestration is changing the rules of intralogistics?
