THE ROBOT TAKES THE SHOCK ⚡

What if robots could take on dangerous work while skilled humans stay in control?

Scott Walter, and I sat down with Theo Nash, CEO of Mundane, to explore how they're using robotics to tackle hazardous work. With haptic feedback, skilled workers can remotely control the robots and feel what they're doing, while the robot takes on the physical exposure.

We talk about the technology, the challenges of building the company, what Mundane would do differently, and why they believe robotics should augment skilled workers, not replace them.

Zmotor Linear Actuator Teardown: Inside the Stator, Rotor & IPRS

What’s actually inside a linear actuator built for humanoid robots? In this teardown, we will take one apart piece by piece and explains how each part works. It’s all packed into a body just 32 mm in diameter.

You’ll see:

Stator: the fixed copper windings that create the magnetic field

Rotor: spins inside the stator and drives the screw

IPRS (Inverted Planetary Roller Screw): turns rotation into strong, precise linear motion

Actuators like this decide how strong, fast and precise a humanoid can move.
