About
About K.Hartwall
A-MATE Lite is an omnidirectional autonomous mobile robot designed to move loads up to 600 kilograms, with natural-feature navigation, lidar safety and optional VDA 5050 connectivity. The broader A-MATE range supports pallet and load-carrier movement without fixed guidance infrastructure.
The Finnish company has a much wider logistics-equipment business than robotics alone, supplying roll cages, dollies, tugs and material-flow systems internationally. Its integration with SYNAOS and Bosch Rexroth demonstrates how the vehicle hardware can sit inside a multi-vendor orchestration stack, while K.Hartwall remains the named mobile-robot manufacturer.

Timeline
Events
- 2025-10-07 - Capability - SYNAOS integrates ROKIT-powered A-MATE Lite
The productive integration uses VDA 5050 interfaces. Bosch Rexroth ROKIT provides localisation and navigation on the vehicle. SYNAOS allocates tasks and optimises routes at the fleet and material-flow layer.
