Robotik: Bosch plant Serienproduktion für humanoide Roboter

Düsseldorf, Bosch plans to manufacture humanoid robots in the Black Forest region. In collaboration with the British start-up Humanoid, the technology conglomerate intends to establish a production line for mass production at the Bühl plant in North Black Forest starting in August 2027. The "Frankfurter Allgemeine Sonntagszeitung" (FAS) reported this on Friday.

This would be the first time Bosch produces such AI-controlled robots. Initially, a production run of several hundred units is planned. The machines are modeled after the human body, featuring a head, arms, hands, and legs. Their primary applications will be in factories and logistics. Long-term, applications in nursing care and the home are also considered possible.

Humanoid develops the robots in London, while Bosch serves as an industrial partner for setting up the production line. The company will also potentially supply components such as drives, motors, and sensors. The two companies are currently reviewing this possibility.
