No deployment evidence on file
A deployment is recorded when a public source names both the customer and the robot, or the maker confirms it. Nothing here counts against Planar Motor.
In AGV, Innok Robotics has deployment evidence on file.

Why Planar Motor has been in the news, across 1 outlet, collected and classified independently, so a maker cannot add to it. It never changes a robot's RoboScore (the evidence half of the RoboIndex) and it can move a robot up a board by at most 15 points.
