Progressive Robotics — palletizing with physical AI.
A deep-tech robotics company from Thessaloniki, part of the ABB Robotics Ecosystem. AnyStack Palletizer builds single-SKU and mixed pallets straight from unsequenced flows, with a motion planner that plans movement in milliseconds. ZEDlog brings it to the Romanian market as a technology partner.
About Progressive Robotics
Deep-tech robotics from the heart of Europe.
Progressive Robotics P.C., headquartered in Thessaloniki, Greece, is a deep-tech robotics company founded in 2023. Its palletizing software is part of the ABB Robotics Ecosystem, with live deployments across Europe and the USA and a €1.6M seed round led by Marathon Venture Capital.
The differentiator is "Physical AI": in-house probabilistic algorithms that generate collision-free trajectories in milliseconds on a standard CPU — no GPU or specialised hardware. The result — online, real-time, robot-agnostic palletizing with no vendor lock-in.

AnyStack capabilities
One software. Four working modes.
AnyStack covers both ends of the warehouse — from unloading containers to building the mixed pallet — with the same motion-planning engine.
Single-SKU palletizing
Builds single-SKU pallets from floor-loaded containers or trucks. 3D vision scans and dimensions boxes (with or without a barcode), generates the pattern automatically and handles the pallet, with unattended operation and live monitoring.
On-the-fly mixed palletizing
Builds stable mixed pallets directly from random, unsequenced product flows — no buffers or sorters. The AI stacking engine accounts for weight and size; sub-millimetre 3D detection; collision-free planning.
Single & mixed depalletizing
The same software un-builds inbound pallets and containers. Vision identifies products in real time — including shifted, broken-pattern or damaged boxes — and adjusts the grip. Mixed pallets are sorted while depalletizing.
The AnyStack software core
Generates collision-free trajectories in milliseconds on a standard CPU — no GPU. Avoids static collisions, self-collisions and dynamic obstacles (boxes already on the pallet). Robot-agnostic: validated on 4/5/6-DOF arms from various makers.
The ZEDlog × Progressive Robotics partnership
AI palletizing, integrated locally.
ZEDlog brings AnyStack to the Romanian market as a technology partner — full integration with conveyor, WMS and the rest of the line, with local engineering and support.
Technology partner
ZEDlog × Progressive Robotics
System-level integration
We connect AnyStack with your existing conveyor, sorter and WMS/WCS — a single integrator responsible for the complete line, from sensor to ERP.
Local engineering and support
Commissioning, training and maintenance with engineers in Romania — contractually guaranteed response time.
Technology without vendor lock-in
A robot-agnostic motion planner: we pick the right arm (ABB and other makers) to fit the project, not the other way around.
Fast ROI, lower risk
Pre-engineered AnyStack Lite and Pro cells, up and running in days, with leasing available — a predictable investment.
