Materials Suppliers for Humanoid Robots
About This Category
Engineering plastics, magnesium-aluminium alloys, carbon fibre composites, polyurethane skin, and synthetic coatings used in robot structural frames, shells, and flexible surfaces.
Weight-critical materials determine robot payload-to-mass ratio. Magnesium alloys and carbon fibre enable lightweight yet strong structures. Flexible polyurethane enables safe human contact surfaces.
