Dexterity and HIWIN announced a partnership that will see HIWIN manufacture the motion and control components of the Mech 'superhumanoid' platform.

Physical AI and robotics provider Dexterity announced a strategic partnership with HIWIN Technologies, a global manufacturer of motion and control systems.

The partnership will see HIWIN produce high-performance robot arms for Dexterity’s hardware platform: the Mech.

Mech specifications and HIWIN engineering

Dexterity describes Mech as a ‘superhumanoid’ roving, two-armed robot designed 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. 

Mech recently received onsite operational validation at Sagawa Express’ X Frontier relay center in Tokyo.

“Our partnership with HIWIN gives Dexterity the world-class manufacturing expertise needed to deliver advanced robotics at scale,” said Samir Menon, CEO of Dexterity.  “With HIWIN’s precision engineering and Dexterity’s unique Physical AI approach, we are bringing a new category of enterprise-grade, industrial Mechs to customers for multiple industries worldwide.”

Dexterity said HIWIN’s experience 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 also ensuring their capability in lifting weights beyond the OSHA limit for a single-person lift. 

Dexterity said the collaboration strengthens its ability to scale production and deploy its AI-powered robots across a wide range of industries in North America, Asia and Europe.

“Dexterity’s innovative Mech design and Physical AI capabilities are delivering transformational value to large enterprises that have yet to benefit from robotics,” said Eddie Chuo, chairman and CEO of HIWIN Technologies Corp. “The Mech’s flexibility and intelligence unlock value for business leaders in parcel, ground logistics, retail, e-commerce and many other markets where adaptability and physical AI-powered intelligence provides a significant advantage.”
