Next-generation robot production
The company is preparing the facility to manage large-scale production using specialist software platforms. This includes real-time control and tracking of production lines through an innovative Manufacturing Execution System (MES).
BotQ will also benefit from Product Lifecycle Management (PLM), which helps oversee the lifecycle of robots from design to manufacturing. Dedicated Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) will also help manage resources, scheduling, and logistics.
Finally, the facility will also have a specially designed Warehouse Management System (WMS) – to optimize inventory management. The factory will also integrate some of the robots made by Figure.
Figure explains this innovative approach. Its humanoid robots will assist in manufacturing additional robots. This use of robot labor will increase over time, enhancing automation, speeding production, and reducing human involvement in repetitive tasks.
