Schaeffler

A landmark binding agreement marks one of the industry’s largest disclosed humanoid deployments, transitioning Humanoid’s platforms from pilot trials to a permanent fixture on Schaeffler’s factory floors.

CEO Klaus Rosenfeld outlines the financial roadmap for the company’s robotics pivot, projecting an order book in the hundreds of millions of euros supported by partnerships with 45 global players.

Motion technology giant Schaeffler has signed a strategic partnership with Hexagon Robotics to deploy at least 1,000 AEON humanoids while supplying the high-precision actuators that power them.

A new report from the Wall Street Journal details how Schaeffler is integrating Agility’s Digit humanoid into an active auto-parts plant, marking a shift from logistics pilots to deep industrial manufacturing.

Formerly known as Under Control Robotics (UCR), Sunnyvale-based Noble Machines has officially launched with a focus on heavy-duty, general-purpose industrial robots that prioritize payload and durability over biomimicry.
