Overview
Robotic microfactory platform combining design, structural engineering, regulatory compliance, robotics, and factory operations into one integrated digital workflow. Produces infrastructure components (e.g. high-strength concrete pipe support bases/sleepers) up to 3x faster than conventional construction. Deployed near project sites to reduce logistics. First microfactory (Forge I) launching in Flixborough near Scunthorpe, UK, in partnership with LKAB.
