🚐 At Mercedes-Benz Vitoria, every van is built to order.
No stock. No repeats. Just a fully synchronized flow where robotics, logistics, and human expertise come together to deliver precision at scale.
🎙️ In this episode of Intralogistics Insiders, we speak with Iván Caño and Antonio Real, the robotics engineers driving automation at one of Mercedes-Benz’s most advanced production sites. They explain how the plant manages high-mix, just-in-sequence manufacturing without compromising on quality, safety, or speed—thanks to a strong intralogistics backbone and a standardized approach to automation.
🤖 From validating entire robotic cells in controlled environments to ensuring seamless integration on the shop floor, they share how technical rigor, continuous training, and lean coordination keep operations running efficiently—even as complexity grows.
🔍 What you’ll learn:
- How Mercedes-Benz coordinates high-variation production with zero inventory
- The real impact of AGVs and robotics on plant efficiency and worker safety
- What Mercedes values in a supplier—and why standardization is only part of the answer
🏭 With more than 70 years of manufacturing experience, Mercedes-Benz Vitoria is more than a factory—it’s a blueprint for the future of intralogistics.
