Transporting goods with autonomous vehicles and delivery robots
Flexible, round-the-clock delivery

Anchor Navigation

Swiss Post is testing cutting-edge technologies to offer its customers up-to-date solutions, including self-driving, autonomous vehicles. These are available around the clock and are ecological and economical to operate. Swiss Post is testing autonomous vehicles in different areas to find out where they could be beneficial: for in-house customer logistics and as a supplement to delivery.

Relieving the strain on hospitals

Medication, food, lab samples and even waste: the indoor robots can transport practically anything and work around the clock. They move independently through the hospital and, depending on the attachment used, can even load themselves with cargo. This means that medical professionals do not have to perform logistics tasks, leaving more time for patients.

Indoor robots can easily be incorporated into existing processes. No infrastructure – such as guide rails or floor markings – is required to operate them.

Indoor robots have proved their worth. They have been in successful operation at hospitals in the USA for over 10 years.

Are you interested in indoor robots? We look forward to hearing from you.

Technical information

Robots in the delivery process
Fast and flexible transportation of consignments

Delivery robots are suitable for consignments that need to be delivered flexibly, quickly and inexpensively in a local neighbourhood. These ad-hoc logistics over the last mile are not covered at present by mail carriers, which is why robots serve as a meaningful extension of the delivery supply chain.
