206. Intelligente Maschinen GmbH

InMach Ulm, Germany.
Contact: Boris Kluge.
Robots for better service, better care, better comfort

InMach Intelligente Maschinen GmbH is concerned with thedevelopment of robot technology which allows an automation of everyday services and tasks such as cleaning, transportation of goods or people or other logistic and maintenance tasks.

Robotic devices which can take over and automize everyday tasks such cleaning, transportation, logistics, or maintenance may provide a viable approach to relieve the problems of an aging society and improve the living standard and independency of people in need. However, robots which are capable of cleaning a floor or carrying heavy loads will not only be used by elderly or handicapped people but by everybody. Recent market statistics and forecasts (World Robotics 2003 edited by UN/IFR) predict a market volume for service robots which exceeds that of industrial robotics by magnitudes.

InMach has taken up the challenge to play a leading role in the development and commercialization of assistive robotic systems for private as well as for professional use.
