Webinar: Innok Power in the salt mines at K+S AG

Written by Innok Robotics | 06-04-2026

At "Lunch & Learn: The Innok Webinar", we present compact, practical knowledge on autonomous and, above all, outdoor-capable robotics right on time for your lunch break at 12:00 noon.

In this edition on Wednesday, June 17, we literally dive deep: What role do autonomous mobile robots play in the most extreme underground conditions? We take a look at one of our most fascinating projects at K+S AG using the example of K+S Minerals and Agriculture GmbH.

Four of our HEROS modular robot platforms are in use at K+S AG in the INSPECTOS version. Their task is to autonomously monitor the infrastructure in the salt mines.

Topics that we will discuss in the webinar:

    • Deployment under extreme conditions: How the INSPECTOS copes with dust, salt, darkness and the toughest terrain in the mine and how our other robots also benefit from this experience.
    • Autonomous inspection: Reliable data acquisition and monitoring of critical underground infrastructure.
    • InnokCockpit in practice: How our AI autonomy software controls and evaluates complex inspection missions and simplifies operation.
    • Added value and ROI: Significant increase in occupational safety through the use of robotics in hazardous and difficult-to-access environments.

Our speakers:

    • Johannes Nensel: Head of the Unterbreizbach mine, K+S Minerals and Agriculture GmbH at the Werra plant
    • Alexander Högerl: Manager Strategic Growth & Key Accounts, Innok Robotics)

A look into the depths of automation:
Anyone familiar with the harsh reality of a salt mine knows immediately that standard solutions fail here. This is where Innok Robotics' multi-terrain DNA shows its full potential, which goes beyond the requirements for brownfield and outdoor environments of the INDUROS. The INSPECTOS, based on the Innok HEROS platform, performs monitoring tasks fully autonomously and relieves personnel in safety-critical areas in the long term. After all, the best product only brings real added value if it delivers reliably under all conditions.
