Humanoid Robotics in Switchgear Manufacturing:
In addition to traditional automation, robotics, and AI, Mangelberger Elektrotechnik is now also exploring the potential integration of humanoid robots into switchgear manufacturing. We recognize that the productive use of humanoid systems in industrial manufacturing is still in its infancy. That is precisely why we are starting early to research the necessary framework conditions.
Our goal is not merely to examine what humanoids are already capable of today. Far more important to us is the question of where humanoids will encounter limitations in the future. This will yield valuable insights for the design, standardization, and further development of modern low-voltage switchgear and their workspaces.
The focus here is on insights from production: What mounting heights are practical for humans, robots, and humanoids? How should control displays, walkways, reach zones, and work areas be designed? Which components cannot be assembled by robots, and why? And which tasks will remain a challenge in the long term?
Mangelberger is thus conducting research into switchgear construction that is not only more automated but also more ergonomic, efficient, and future-proof. Many of these optimizations help us today to prepare for the products of tomorrow—and thereby lay the foundation for the future integration of humanoid assistance systems.
Through this research, Mangelberger Elektrotechnik from Roth combines robotics, AI, LLM, Industry 4.0, and practical manufacturing experience with a clear goal: developing a human-robot-ready design. We keep on moving!
