About Magazino
TORU combines autonomous navigation with a telescoping gripper for identifying and retrieving individual cartons from warehouse shelves. SOTO instead automates production supply by collecting and delivering small-load carriers between storage and assembly stations. Both systems navigate without fixed guides and use perception to operate around people and changing material locations.
Fleet and warehouse interfaces allocate jobs and expose robot status, material flow and operating history. Jungheinrich completed its acquisition of Magazino in 2023, and the Munich team now forms the core of Jungheinrich’s global robotics and autonomy organisation. It continues to support TORU and SOTO while extending the autonomy stack across the parent company’s wider automation portfolio.

Timeline
Events
- 2024-09-23 - Deployment - Gabor deploys two Magazino TORU robots in Mindelheim warehouse
The customer, site and two live TORU robots are named in the deployment. The robots operate inside Gabor's warehouse picking workflow. The deployment places Gabor's technology into warehouse automation and material-handling workflows beyond a lab-only setting.
Source - 2023-08-23 - Acquisition - Jungheinrich acquires all Magazino shares
Jungheinrich already held a stake in Magazino before the full acquisition. The deal covered shares held by founders and previous co-shareholders.
Source - 2021-06-04 - Deployment - Zalando expands Magazino TORU robot fleet to 57 units
Zalando had used TORU robots since 2018. The Lahr site operated 16 TORU robots and could process up to 6,000 shoeboxes per day. The event captures fleet expansion rather than the first TORU deployment.
