Market Chatter: Teradyne Unit Supplies Robotic Arms for Amazon's Warehouse Robot
Jul 10, 2025 11:34 AM

02:03 PM EDT, 07/10/2025 (MT Newswires) -- Teradyne's ( TER ) Universal Robots unit is supplying robotic arms for Amazon's ( AMZN ) new warehouse robot, Vulcan, Hunterbrook Media reported Thursday, citing photos and videos from Amazon ( AMZN ) and CNBC.

Vulcan is reportedly designed to automate tasks like picking and stowing, using advanced touch sensitivity for better precision, according to the report

Amazon ( AMZN ) has not publicly named the supplier, but photos and video footage show that the arms are made by Teradyne's ( TER ) Denmark-based Universal Robots unit, the report said.

The robotic arms also use grippers from Robotiq, a company known for making tools compatible with Universal Robots equipment, according to Hunterbook Media.

Hunterbrook said it estimates the Amazon ( AMZN ) project could represent a "$400 million payday" for Teradyne ( TER ) as the e-commerce giant aims to automate operations for the 14 billion items it processes each year.

Teradyne ( TER ) and Amazon ( AMZN ) did not immediately respond to requests for a comment from MT Newswires.

Teradyne ( TER ) shares were up 6.3% in recent trading.
