Zhijian Power (Simplexity Robotics) has demonstrated a system capable of enabling robots to manufacture parts for other robots, specifically focusing on high-precision CNC machining. Their approach, presented at IROS 2026, utilizes a multi-modal model called SimpleWAM for action generation, DRAM for long-term memory, and DPE for action evaluation, all trained on a limited dataset of 600 robot trajectories. This system successfully achieves 100% task success rate in tasks with a 0.5mm tolerance, bridging the gap between laboratory precision and factory-floor reality. AI
IMPACT Demonstrates a significant step towards autonomous robotic manufacturing, potentially accelerating production and lowering costs in the robotics industry.
