Inspired by the past. To form the future. Machina Labs is an advancing manufacturing using next-gen AI and robotics technologies to build software-defined factories of the future.

Unlocking the centuries-old manufacturing industry by combining advanced robotics + AI to build the next generation of factories. Enabling rapid iteration and production in days vs months to accelerate design, engineering, and innovation.
Craftsman is an agile manufacturing platform integrating 7-axis robots, autonomous sheet loading and fixturing, and advanced AI process models and closed-loop controls to enable many manufacturing processes and perform a variety of operations such as roboforming at the click of a button.
MACHINA CAPABILITIES

MACHINA LABS ROBOFORMING

Leveraging precise industrial robotics and AI-driven process control, Roboforming™ rapidly shapes sheet metal into large, complex parts that are extremely expensive and slow to produce with conventional manufacturing tools.

PRECISION + SCALABILITY

We build robotic systems to replicate the honed perception, dexterity, and agility of a master craftsman plus the repeatability and scalability of a modern factory. Machina’s platform leverages real-time sensor data and AI to precisely control the incremental forming and trimming of sheet metal parts.

We capture the provenance of every part we manufacture. We store high-resolution process data and then process and save it as a digital twin containing all the relevant history. This provides the most accurate characterization of process steps and qualification of the final part.

MATERIALS+

If it bends, we can form it. Machina’s Roboforming™ process uses standard metal sheet stock – available in thousands of materials, sizes, and gauges. These include (but are by no means limited to) Aluminums, Steels, Titaniums, Invars, Inconels, and refractory alloys.

Robotics Customer Journey

01. DEV SUITE

Subscriptions and Development Plans tailored to rapidly demonstrate our capabilities and validate your applications.

02. ON PREM

Many customers benefit from systems “on prem” to maximize security and speed of iteration while minimizing the need for shipping parts and files around the world.

03. ELASTIC FACTORY

the software-defined factory of the future that can dynamically scale up and down production across an array of our die-less manufacturing cells, either at our HQ in Los Angeles, or at a partner facility

We are Machina Labs. Watch us work.

⸺ DEFENSE

The United States Government relies on Machina's capabilities to rapidly develop, build, and deploy the next generation of aircraft, ships, vehicles, and other critical equipment. Machina's systems also help sustain and maximize the effectiveness of existing fleets.

⸺ AEROSPACE

The leaders in flight and space are moving faster than ever. Aircraft, rocket, and satellite manufacturers leverage Machina's ability to rapidly iterate with lightweight, high-temperature metals like titanium to launch faster and more reliably.

⸺ AUTOMOTIVE

OEMs and suppliers that refuse to compromise on speed and performance utilize Machina's capabilities to go from design to test faster than ever. Dieless production enables aftermarket parts and low-volume product variants previously cost-prohibitive with traditional stamping.

⸺ CONSUMER

Machina's technology enables manufacturers of large consumer products and appliances to rapidly shape and test their future designs. Going from CAD to assembly in days pulls in engineering builds and consumer testing.

⸺ INDUSTRIAL

Manufacturers of heavy equipment for the Energy, Marine, Construction, Agriculture, and Transportation Industries demand large, durable, and cost-effective sheet metal products. Machina supplies the parts and systems needed to keep industrial manufacturers up and running.

⸺ COMPOSITES

Roboforming™ large tooling surfaces allows composites manufacturers to significantly reduce lead times, cycle times, and material waste. Compatibility with high-temperature, low-thermal expansions metals like Invar enable the rapid manufacture of large, precision aero surfaces.
