ABB Robotics in Sweden has introduced a robotics prize that is awarded annually in three categories: Manufacturing Industry of the Year, Innovator of the Year and Partner of the Year.

The reason for the award was:
Manufacturing industry of the year: “Olofsfors manufactures tracks for forestry and construction machinery, and wear steel. As early as 2002, Olofsfors used a strategy to develop into a high-performance factory by choosing to invest in a fully automated production line. After that, they also chose to take a step towards the digitized factory and have connected their robots with Connected Services as part of the integral service agreement with ABB. This service agreement ensures availability and optimization of the robots' performance. "
