Musashi AI Ltd. (Head office: Toyohashi City, Aichi Prefecture; CEO: Sota Murata; “Musashi AI”), a group company of Musashi Seimitsu Industry Co., Ltd. (Head office: Toyohashi City, Aichi Prefecture; President and CEO: Hiroshi Otsuka; “Musashi”), has successfully completed a PoC for AMR (Autonomous Mobile Robot) at Suzuyo & Co., Ltd. (Head office: Shizuoka City, Shizuoka Prefecture; President & CEO: Kenichiro Suzuki), a leading 3PL company, in partnership with 634AI Ltd (Head Office: Israel, CEO: Onn Fenig) , also a Musashi Group company, the developer of MAESTRO, an industrial automation management software.
Suzuyo, a Japanese logistics company with an annual turnover of circa $1.2 Billion, successfully tested Musashi AI's AMR powered by MAESTRO, a platform-agnostic control tower for logistics automation developed by Israeli company 634AI. The AMR autonomously moved pallets in the facility from one location to another smoothly and efficiently. The POC was performed in Suzuyo’s Shinshizuoka Distribution in Shizuoka prefecture.

Onn Fenig, CEO of 634AI, said: “We are honored to be partnering with Musashi and Suzuyo, two global industrial giants, to introduce the sizable benefits of our MAESTRO software system. This Proof of Concept has been another excellent showcase of our MAESTRO software, demonstrating its unique capabilities for orchestrating indoor logistics while providing insightful information to facilitate safe and effective floor operations. We are humbled and proud that Suzuyo is considering adopting our software for AMR navigation and fleet management in their facilities across Japan.”
Sota Murata, CEO of Musashi AI said: “Our proprietary AMR technology, fully compatible with 634AI’s MAESTRO mobility management software, is just another example of our vision to introduce practical solutions that solve real human problems. In a world of labor shortage, autonomous logistics become a viable solution for many companies wanting to increase their resilience and business continuity, especially following a global pandemic such as COVID-19.”
Ken Kawashima, General Manager of 3PL Business Development Department at Suzuyo said : “We are always thinking about improving the safety, quality and productivity of our distribution center and providing our customers with a high level of distribution service. We believe MAESTRO offers a virtually unique ability to manage AMRs, and allow humans and robots to work together in sophisticated hybrid environments. Both Musashi AI and 634AI have the power to make the world’s logistics network function more efficiently than ever. We look forward to continuing our collaboration with these companies.”
