Mercedes-Benz History
Mercedes-Benz history begins with Karl Benz's 1886 patent in Mannheim and Gottlieb Daimler's parallel work in Stuttgart. Their companies merged on June 28, 1926, to form Daimler-Benz AG.
Mercedes-Benz has used industrial robots since the 1970s. In 2020, MO360 was launched, connecting ~30 plants to Microsoft Cloud for AI-driven optimization.
In March 2024, Mercedes-Benz entered a commercial agreement with Apptronik for Apollo humanoid robots. Initial deployment focused on logistics, delivering assembly kits and inspecting components at Berlin and Kecskemét plants.
