Robotics Field Engineer

Créée en 2005, Balyo est à l’origine d’une technologie de robotique mobile ultra flexible et inédite dans l’univers de la logistique : un module de navigation sans infrastructure qui transforme des chariots de manutention manuels en robots autonomes. Balyo réunit des experts software et hardware pour apporter une solution simple, compétitive et globale aux besoins des industriels mondiaux, qui déplacent pas moins de 200 milliards de palettes par an.

Forte de 10 années de développement, la technologie propriétaire Driven by Balyo™ permet aux véhicules équipés de se localiser et de naviguer en totale autonomie à l’intérieur des bâtiments. La flexibilité de ce système répond à une demande en croissance exponentielle qui a conduit Balyo à intensifier son développement international et à former une équipe de plus de 160 collaborateurs basés à Ivry sur Seine, Boston et Singapour.

Le succès de l’introduction en Bourse de Balyo sur Euronext en Juin 2017 vient confirmer le fort engouement pour les solutions proposées.

Who we are

Balyo is a world-wide leader in Autonomous Guide Vehicles (AGV’s) for industrial material handling. We’ve grown from our start-up days, but retain our start-up culture and mentality to move fast and deliver innovative technological and operational solutions to our customers. With headquarters in Paris and satellite offices in Singapore, China and Woburn, MA, USA, we are able to deliver and install robots in almost every market around the world.

Technological leadership

Our AGVs rely on top notch technology to navigate and transport products. SLAM and detection algorithms support the LiDAR and 3D cameras to provide accurate navigation and pallet recognition, respectively. We hold numerous patents and are continuously innovating to maintain and extend our position of technological leader in the market. As an example, we recently commissioned a system which handled the putaway and retrieval of one ton loads to a height of over 55’ (17m); a world record!
