Armatrix Snake-Arm

説明

Armatrix Snake-ArmはArmatrixのIndustrial-Robotです。 コーティング、マテリアルハンドリング、塗装向けに設計されています。 主な数値：24 自由度。

The Armatrix Snake-Arm is a long, slender, hyper-redundant robotic arm designed to reach inside confined industrial spaces such as storage tanks, reactors, ship hulls and aircraft engines. It enters through a standard manhole, nozzle or access port, so the asset does not have to be dismantled and no scaffolding or human entry is needed. The arm body is purely mechanical, made of links, joints and cables. All motors, electronics and compute sit in a separate actuator box outside the workspace, which the maker says makes the arm suitable for explosive, flooded, irradiated and extreme-temperature environments. Control uses reinforcement learning across 24 degrees of freedom: the operator sets a goal and the arm plans its own path through the internal geometry, with digital-twin simulation and real-time path planning. The platform targets a reach of 3 to 5 m with a cross-section of 50 to 150 mm. Swappable end-effectors turn one deployment into an inspection camera, a spray-coating nozzle or an AI-guided welding torch. Armatrix completed a 1.5 m prototype in 2024 and a 3 m MVP arm in November 2025, and is moving towards pilot deployments in shipbuilding, oil and gas, nuclear energy and aerospace.
