INTERNAL LOGISTICS. REENGINEERED.
Internal logistics.
Zero contact.
Haku develops magnetic levitation systems for internal logistics. We help move goods and materials within production and logistics facilities, with less mechanical wear, lower energy use and smoother motion.
INTERNAL LOGISTICS · MAGLEV CONCEPT
Goods and materials move on wheels along steel rails. A familiar starting point for internal logistics.
TRANSITION
OUR SOLUTIONS
Efficient transport. Precise motion.
Two approaches to contactless motion for internal logistics.
Transport maglev
Move goods and materials with less mechanical wear and lower energy use. Designed for internal transport routes in production and logistics facilities.
- Lower maintenance at the wheel-rail interface
- Energy-efficient internal transport
- Integration into new and existing transport routes
Precision maglev
Contactless movement focused on minimising vibration and enabling precise positioning. For processes where motion quality matters as much as moving the load.
- Reduced vibration from mechanical contact
- Smooth, controlled movement
- Precision requirements defined around your application
ENGINEERED FOR INTERNAL LOGISTICS
Less vibrations.
Contactless motion designed to reduce vibration from wheel-rail contact. Smooth, controlled movement for vibration-sensitive processes.
Less maintenance.
No wheel-rail contact during levitation means no wear at that interface. Designed to reduce maintenance and keep industrial transport moving.
Less energy.
Move goods and materials with less energy. Magnetic levitation removes rolling resistance at the wheel-rail interface, with propulsion and levitation on the vehicle.
01 · WHY NOW
More demand. Limited power.
No room for downtime.
Internal logistics needs to move goods and materials with less energy and less maintenance. Simply adding more power is no longer a given.
Waiting for power.
Electricity demand requests waiting at Dutch regional grid operators in June 2026. Access to power can become a barrier to industrial growth.
NETBEHEER NEDERLAND · H1 2026 ↗Make every kilowatt count.
The IEA identifies motor-system upgrades as a key opportunity for industrial efficiency. Rethinking how goods move within facilities is part of that challenge.
IEA · ENERGY EFFICIENCY 2025 ↗Less contact. Less wear.
Wheel-to-rail contact creates wear and maintenance work. Haku is developing contactless transport to reduce that burden and keep industrial operations moving.
HAKU · DESIGN OBJECTIVEThe need is here. The next step is proving the impact in industry.
CURRENT PROTOTYPE · STEPHENSON JR.
From engineering to industrial motion.
Our integrated maglev prototype brings levitation, propulsion and control together. An industrial pilot is already scheduled for February 2027.
Finished by end of December 2026: 120 kg payload · 30 km/h speed · 2 m/s² acceleration
