MENLO
PARK, Calif., Jan. 16,
2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Cyngn Inc. (the "Company" or
"Cyngn") (Nasdaq: CYN) today announced the initiation of a
production deployment with COATS Company, the largest full-line
wheel service equipment manufacturer in North America, boasting over 70 years of
industry experience. The deployment of Cyngn's DriveMod
Tugger is underway at COATS' 150,000+ square foot
manufacturing facility in La Vergne,
Tennessee.
This deployment will leverage Cyngn's previously
announced next-generation DriveMod Tugger, which features an
increased towing capacity from 6,000 lbs to 12,000 lbs. By
automating the delivery of wheel service components from its
production lines, COATS will be able to enhance efficiency and
further its innovation goals at the facility.
Steve Bergmeyer, Continuous
Improvement and Quality Manager at COATS, said "Cyngn's
self-driving tugger was the perfect solution to support our
strategy of advancing automation and incorporating scalable
technology seamlessly into our operations. With its high load
capacity, we can concentrate on increasing our ability to manage
heavier components and bulk orders, driving greater efficiency,
reducing costs, and accelerating delivery timelines."
"We're excited to be working with a major North American
automotive service equipment manufacturer that's trusted by wheels
service professionals worldwide," said Lior
Tal, Chief Executive Officer at Cyngn. "This win highlights
the growing commercial momentum behind our autonomous DriveMod
products. We're continuing to find a perfect fit with companies
that do high-uptime heavy manufacturing, especially in the
automotive sector where maximizing production efficiency is
crucial."
The automotive sector was one of the top adopters of industrial
robotics in 2023, demonstrating the escalating need for advanced
autonomous solutions. Cyngn's ongoing progress with leading
automotive manufacturers, including its initial DriveMod Tugger
deployment with Rivian earlier this year, reflects the
company's unwavering dedication to leveraging AI to drive
innovation and unlock new efficiencies to meet the demands of
today's competitive manufacturing landscape.
