DEEP Robotics launches LYNX M20 wheel-legged robot
On May 30, 2025, DEEP Robotics introduced the LYNX M20, a medium-sized wheel-legged robot designed for industrial inspection and emergency response in unstructured environments. The robot features autonomous navigation, a 2.5-hour runtime, a 15 km range with a 50 kg payload capacity, IP66 rating, and operation in temperatures from -20°C to 55°C.
Bio-inspired robots tackle marine pollution: robotic fish, vessels
On May 30, 2025, reports highlighted bio-inspired robots, automation, and microbial solutions for addressing marine pollution. These include robotic fish for microplastics (Sichuan University's light-activated, self-healing fish), autonomous surface vessels like RanMarine Technology's WasteShark (collecting up to 500 kg of waste), and seabed robots such as KIOST's Crabster series for underwater tasks.
Pack assembly: integration beats sophisticated robots
On May 28, 2025, a report emphasized that successful pack assembly systems balance throughput, quality, and safety in real-time. The report highlights that effective integration is more critical than simply purchasing the most advanced robots.
Comau tech enables large-format 3D printing solutions
On May 30, 2025, Comau announced that CEAD leverages Comau robotic arm technology integrated into its Flexbot system. This integration enables companies to revolutionize manufacturing processes by delivering large format thermoplastic composite 3D printing solutions, including entire boat hulls, and supports them in building microfactories globally.
