Ebusco is continuously in search of possibilities for renewal in order to always have the solution to the future in-house.

Delivery of the first series of robots will take place in April 2021, after which a demo set-up will be installed at Ebusco in Deurne. A second, larger series is scheduled for July 2021,” says Crijn Bouman, CEO of Rocsys.
