CaPow, a perpetual energy answer supplier, introduced it raised a $7.5 million Seed spherical to scale up the commercialization of its battery-free, wi-fi, vitality supply eco-system for autonomous robotics. This answer supplies steady energy for automated robotic environments whereas eliminating robotic downtime attributable to charging. The spherical was led by IL Ventures, a VC fund targeted on disruptive applied sciences for legacy industries, with co-investment from Mobilion VC, Payton Planar Magnetics, Doral Power-Tech Ventures, Mobilitech Capital, and Mr. Ray Nissan, a distinguished angel investor.

At present, many automated options depend on batteries for energy provide. This dependency results in a number of inherent inefficiencies similar to charging downtime and rampant prices because of the want for added robots to interchange those which can be being charged. Furthermore, conventional batteries have a destructive environmental impression, as they create security hazards and are an operational “headache” since they require a devoted procurement technique, particular transport, dealing with, storage and recycling.

CaPow addresses the first bottleneck for automation: the problem of offering dependable, cost-effective, and non-pollutive vitality. By providing constant energy stream for cell robots, CaPow’s vitality supply eco-system permits automated robotic options to constantly function with no vitality depletion downtime whereas ending the idea of reliance on legacy batteries. CaPow’s “battery-free”, paradigm-shifting answer is being nicely acquired alongside the logistics worth chain, as it’s validated to chop down the scale of the required robotic fleet, improve throughput and enhance the ROI of automation.

CaPow’s proprietary answer facilitates optimum energy switch with broad and dynamic capabilities. It accommodates a number of customers, in addition to the presence of metallic and particles in and across the vitality switch subject. As well as, it helps massive distances between the transmitting and receiving ends, in addition to broad spatial protection. This supplies substantial energy ranges with optimum end-to-end effectivity. The worth of CaPow’s expertise additional expands to the broader mobility market with a variety of purposes. 

Mr. Amir Fishelov joins CaPow’s Board of Administrators as Chairman of the Board, leveraging his 20 years of expertise as Co-Founding father of SolarEdge (Nasdaq: SEDG), a pioneer and international chief in sensible vitality expertise. At SolarEdge, a $17B firm, Mr. Fishelov served as Chief Architect in addition to VP of Technique and Company Improvement, main large-scale and sophisticated vitality administration tasks.

“With the backing of our buyers and strategic companions, CaPow is difficult robotic producers, automation answer suppliers, and facility operators to alter their definition of operational effectivity”, says Prof. Mor Peretz, Co-Founder & CEO at CaPow. “We look ahead to accelerating our product improvement to satisfy sturdy market demand for our revolutionary and confirmed expertise. The corporate will use the proceeds from the funding spherical to expedite enterprise progress in markets around the globe.”

“At IL Ventures, we align carefully with CaPow’s mission of making a sustainable, battery-free energy provide for the trade,” says Yoni Heilbronn, Managing Associate at IL Ventures. “We’re excited to spend money on an distinctive and confirmed expertise, which is a sport changer for your complete robotic energy panorama.”

“I’m very proud BGN Applied sciences took half in bringing CaPow’s revolutionary expertise to the market,” says Zafrir Levi, VP Actual Sciences at BGN, the commercialization arm of the Ben-Gurion College. “We wholeheartedly imagine in CaPow’s Perpetual Energy answer, and this funding is proof of the corporate’s superior expertise and for the huge potential for disrupting the trade through which it operates”.
