Humanoid robots for manufacturing
Line-side work: assembly, machine tending, inspection and part transfer.
26 robots
Before you buy: evaluation checklist
- □Which line task is it replacing, and what is the current cycle time to beat?
- □Does it hold tolerance repeatably, or only in a scripted demo?
- □How is it programmed for a new part — teach-by-demo, code, or vendor services?
- □Downtime plan: spares, service response, and who fixes it on site.
- □Ask for a customer reference at the same tier of work as yours.
