Robot deployments in Poland and Europe: 15 sourced cases

The useful question about a robot is who has trusted it with a specific job. This atlas collects fifteen reported cases from Poland and Europe. Every record connects the customer, location, task, robot and source. Seven concern Poland. It is an editorial selection, not a complete market registry.

Use it to find a comparable process and ask better supplier questions. A factory, warehouse and power plant have different needs from a home. A strong result at one named customer does not establish the economics of a second installation.

Robots have a location. And a specific job.

15 examples from Poland and Europe. An evidence atlas, not a complete market census or a manufacturer ranking. We verify what the cited sources report; we do not claim that every installation is still operating today.

15 records

Deployment reported by source

1. Schneider Electric

Bukowno, PL · MiR500

Moves finished products between production and warehouse. The case describes pallet stations and operator-issued missions.

The source dates use to January 2020. Today’s fleet size and installed cost are not confirmed.

2. Whirlpool

Łódź, PL · MiR200

Component transport between assembly lines. The case covers three robots and returning empty packaging.

The first trial is dated December 2018. The customer and factory names reflect the historical source, not current ownership.

3. Valeo

Skawina, PL · MiR, w tym / including MiR250

Parts containers move on carts, coordinated through MiR Fleet mission queues.

The introduction says two robots; the body says four. This inconsistent count is not used for fleet totals.

4. B/S/H Home Appliances Group

Rzeszów, PL · MiR250 + DORSAL

Waste bins are collected, taken to a compactor and returned. The integrator reports three robots and station management.

132,000 litres per day is a stated maximum system throughput, not an independently measured daily output.

5. Borg Automotive

Zduńska Wola, PL · MiR250 + FORMIGA

KLT container transport with delivery confirmation in MES. The case describes three MiR250 robots.

The reported outcomes concern the served areas, not all company transport. Cost and commissioning date are not provided.

Customer-reported pilot

6. BMW Group

Leipzig, DE · Hexagon AEON

Humanoid pilot involving component and battery production. BMW describes integration into existing processes.

The 21 Sep 2026 article also contains an earlier schedule. Classified as a pilot; no basis for claiming full-scale production operation.

BMW Group — klient / customer · Source checked: 16 Oct 2026 · Source and variant ↗

Deployment reported by source

7. Hermes Fulfilment / Otto Group

Haldensleben, DE · Boston Dynamics Stretch

Unloads cartons from trailers and containers onto a conveyor.

A plan for more than 20 locations is not a count of confirmed installations. This record concerns the named fulfilment centre.

Deployment reported by source

8. DHL Supply Chain / Makro

Madrid, ES · Locus Origin

Moves totes to assigned pallets for HoReCa fulfilment. The provider describes RaaS and seasonal fleet scaling.

Productivity improvement is a provider-reported result for this operation. It is not transferred to other warehouses.

Locus Robotics · Source checked: 16 Oct 2026 · Source and variant ↗

Deployment reported by source

9. Unilever Poland

Katowice, PL · Universal Robots UR10

Palletises tea cartons. The manufacturer describes six cobots and a vacuum-gripper implementation.

The historical customer name comes from the case study. Current ownership is not confirmed and the case does not replace cell risk assessment.

Deployment reported by source

10. Temar

Polska / Poland — miasto niepodane / city not stated · Universal Robots UR10e

Welding, press tending and handling at the paint shop. The case describes four UR10e cobots.

The laser cell is still described as being prepared. It is not classified as completed; no city is guessed.

11. Ford España

Almussafes–Valencia, ES · MiR100

Supplies parts and materials to stations in body and stamping operations.

Three robots are reported in a historical case study. This does not confirm today’s fleet or vehicle production volume.

12. Milton Keynes — Starship

Milton Keynes, UK · Starship delivery robots

Urban delivery robots. The city council confirms that Milton Keynes previously hosted Starship delivery robots.

The same release announces a separate Coco/Deliveroo trial. That announcement is not counted as an operating deployment, and the operators are not merged.

Deployment reported by source

13. Wien Energie

Simmering, Wien, AT · Boston Dynamics Spot

Autonomous inspection rounds of power-plant equipment; the source dates initial operation to 2023.

The source schedules four additional robots from 2027. This October 2026 release does not count them as already deployed.

14. Stera Technologies

Turku, FI · MiR500

Delivers components and returns finished goods on different pallet formats using adapted stations.

The installation uses adapted stations and fixtures. Buying the base robot alone does not reproduce it.

15. Kverneland Group

Denmark — zakład opisany bez miasta / city not stated · MiR500

Moves materials and components in an agricultural-machinery factory.

The page reports AMR use in Denmark but gives no city or commissioning date. No precise point is shown.

What counts as deployment evidence?

We prefer a customer statement or a manufacturer or integrator report that identifies both customer and task. Pilots remain distinct from reported operation. The date we check a page does not mean the robot operated on that date. For older reports we preserve historical customer names and state that current operation is unconfirmed.

Expansion announcements are not completed deployments. In the Wien Energie report, additional robots planned from 2027 do not become installed units in October 2026. For Hermes, the named fulfilment centre is distinguished from the wider rollout plan.

Three questions a case study does not settle

Complete system cost: a robot price may omit stations, integrations, mapping and training. Human involvement: an automated route may still need manual loading or interventions. Repeatability: expected payback and a result achieved at a specific factory are not universal forecasts.

How to use the atlas for your project

Choose a similar task, then list the differences: aisle widths, floors, pallets, doors, shifts and pedestrian traffic. Request a trial at your own site with acceptance criteria agreed in advance. Measure correctly completed tasks, interventions, handling time and downtime. Compare quotations after establishing those conditions.
