Oana Jinga, co-founder of robotics company Dexory, is calling on the industry to stop recruiting only highly specialised researchers and instead open doors to non-specialists and women. Jinga, who studied humanities and had no robotics background, argues that whilst the robotics sector cries out for talent, job adverts seem written to attract only those with decades of experience. She suggests the industry should stop selling "robots" and instead focus on what the technology actually delivers: safer working environments, reduced waste in global supply chains, and solutions to challenges from ageing populations to climate change. Dexory has raised $280 million (approximately SEK 2.7 billion) to date.

Dexory deploys SimScale's Engineering AI to accelerate warehouse robotics development. - Building on its use of SimScale's cloud-native simulation platform, Dexory will use Engineering AI to automate simulation workflows, accelerate engineering analysis and capture institutional knowledge. - The initiative will explore where AI agents can deliver the greatest value across mechanical engineering and product development. - The program demonstrates how first-mover robotics companies are not only using AI in the robots they are building but embedding it into the engineering processes used to design and test them. MUNICH, Germany, Thursday 30th July 2026 - Dexory, the robotics and warehouse data intelligence company, has deployed SimScale's Engineering AI to accelerate the engineering workflows used to design and test autonomous warehouse robots.

Building on its existing use of SimScale's AI-native cloud simulation platform, Dexory will use Engineering AI to help engineers identify the root cause of structural component failures more quickly, automatically explore multiple design variations through simulation, and create a searchable engineering knowledge base from previous projects. As warehouse robotics adoption accelerates, engineering teams face increasing pressure to shorten product development cycles while maintaining performance and reliability. While AI has become central to the robots operating inside warehouses, Dexory's SimScale program reflects a broader shift across manufacturing, where AI is increasingly being embedded into the engineering processes used to design, simulate and optimise physical products. With the global warehouse robotics market projected to reach $117 billion by 2034, from 14.7 billion in 2024, manufacturers are looking for new ways to accelerate product development without compromising engineering quality. Dexory has deployed Engineering AI to reduce the time engineers spend investigating structural component failures by enabling more simulation iterations during critical design phases. The platform will also automate simulation reporting, making results easier to analyse, compare and share across engineering teams. The program will enable engineers to automatically run parameter sweeps, testing multiple design variables simultaneously and generating comparative results without manual configuration. Alongside this, AI agents will capture simulation knowledge from previous projects to create a searchable engineering memory, helping teams reuse proven approaches and preserve valuable expertise as the business grows. Rather than focusing solely on productivity gains, the program is designed to help Dexory understand where AI agents deliver the greatest value across engineering and establish best practices for their future adoption. "AI has a 'blank sheet of paper' problem in engineering because we're still discovering where it can create the greatest value," said Calum MacDougall, Senior Mechanical Design Engineer at Dexory. "This pilot isn't just about solving today's engineering challenges. It's about understanding how AI will reshape engineering over the coming years and helping us discover where it can genuinely transform the way engineers work." "Our recent industry research found that many engineering teams are still defining how AI will fit into their engineering workflows, but forward-thinking companies are already investing to build that understanding fast," said David Heiny, CEO at SimScale. "Engineering AI has proven its ability to automate simulation tasks, explore significantly more design options and help engineers make better decisions faster. By piloting these capabilities broadly today, companies like Dexory are helping shape the future of their engineering practices" About SimScale SimScale is the AI-native cloud platform for engineering simulation.

Romark Logistics transforms warehouse inventory with Dexory's real-time visibility platform. Discover more Machine Learning & Artificial Intelligence Autonomous Vehicle Technology Programming Romark Logistics, a specialist in customized third-party logistics, has selected Dexory's AI-powered warehouse visibility platform, DexoryView, to enhance inventory management at its Hazleton site. The deployment marks the next step in Romark's inventory management strategy, building on prior automated solutions to introduce real-time intelligence that integrates seamlessly into warehouse operations without interrupting throughput. Inventory accuracy without operational trade-offs. Managing a fully racked warehouse handling high-volume confectionery products requires consistent and accurate inventory visibility. Romark's previous inventory counting processes highlighted the need for a more efficient approach that could operate without impacting day-to-day workflows. Enhancing efficiency through automated inventory intelligence. DexoryView introduces a more integrated approach to inventory validation, delivering several operational benefits: * Real-time actionable intelligence: The platform's AI-powered digital twin technology provides accurate, continuously updated inventory insights, supporting more informed decision-making across the facility. * Zero disruption to live operations: Autonomous robots perform inventory checks between shifts, completing multiple aisles per day without pausing automated guided vehicle operations or removing equipment from active workflows. * Faster cycle counts: What once required extensive manual labor is now completed within a defined shift window, freeing teams to focus on high-value tasks like discrepancy resolution, process improvement, and inventory optimization. Kevin Gamber, associate director of automation at Romark Logistics, says: "Dexory enables Robotics & Automation News to validate inventory quickly without disrupting its automated operations.
