Dexterity and Hiwin partner to produce ‘world’s first intelligent robot arm’ for warehouse work
Dexterity, a specialist developer of physical AI and robotics, has agreed a strategic partnership with Hiwin Technologies Corp, a manufacturer of motion and control systems, to produce high-performance robot arms for Dexterity’s hardware platform: the Mech.
The Mech is a roving, two-armed robot designed from the ground to embody Physical AI in industrial applications. Its roving base enables it to go where large enterprises need heavy lifting of a wide range of goods, and its lightweight but powerful, dual arm design enables it to pick and pack goods at the speed of operations – and beyond.
Hiwin’s expertise in precision engineering has enabled the development of lightweight, 8-degree-of-freedom robotic arms for the Mech. HIWIN optimized the strength-to-weight ratio of the Mech arms to make them easy to deploy in warehouses, while at the same time ensuring their capability in lifting weights beyond the OSHA limit for a single person lift.

Opinion: Mechanical engineers and robotics form the basis of competing with China
By Shaun Edwards, CTO and co-founder, Plus One Robotics
As it falters in its reshoring efforts against China, the US faces a clear obstacle: mechanical engineers.
According to the New York Times, the data are apparent, with China graduating more than 350,000 mechanical engineers each year, while the US lags behind with a mere 45,000.
This puts the US at a structural disadvantage because its ability to innovate is hindered by a lack of a skilled workforce. [Read more…] about Opinion: Mechanical engineers and robotics form the basis of competing with China
