The world’s largest factory for humanoid robots, owned by WorkFar, is turning to advanced contract manufacturing for companies that want to on-shore to the USA. The company has manufacturing US-based manufacturing facilities with Industry 5.0 automation, precision engineering and rapid design and manufacturing setup.

WorkFar acquired its factory in 2021 for the purpose of mass-producing humanoid robots in the United States. The factory’s capabilities include plastic injection, mould and tool building, CNC machining, 3d printing, and full product assembly, along with value-added services like product design, prototyping, secondary operations, and more.

The company’s list of current, prior, and end customers includes General Electric, Toyota, BMW, Bosch, Daifuku, Emerson, Mazak, Dematic, Applied Industrial, and the United States Department of Defense.

The company specialises in providing remote-operated, humanoid robots as a service. Its robots are purpose-built for a growing niche of jobs that are considered too dangerous for humans but require human brains.

These jobs include those in the chemical industry, manufacturing, logistics, and other areas where human problem-solving skills are necessary but manipulating objects on-site can result in toxic exposure, repetitive stress injuries, electric shock, and even death.

The manufacturing and assembly of these robots incorporate several thousands of parts total, all of which (aside from the off-the-shelf components) are made in-house in a WorkFar manufactory located in the USA.

These parts include proprietary-designed plastic injected parts and moulds, sheet metal fabricated parts, and CNC machined parts that go into robots’ hands, joints, torso, omni-wheel base, and more.
