A new factory tour takes you through each stage of the process, from beginning to end. Over two hundred people keep the operation running, and the setup already turns out thousands of key parts each month.<\/p>\n<p><span id=\"more-242226\"\/><br \/><iframe title=\"NEO Factory | Hayward, California\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/ag_rFhvSNmE?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><br \/>Copper spools just roll in and are fed directly into the automated equipment that wind the coils for the Revo 2 motors. These motors power every movement in the NEO. And the factory produces thousands of them each month. Each one goes through a precise set of stages to mold the electrified steel into stators and add some bespoke electronics to give them the extra oomph they require for increased torque. Just down the line, another piece of equipment is being manufactured: carefully braided and treated tendons that will later assist the robot in moving with quiet strength and durability. The hands are created on a specific station where several components are meticulously fitted together, one degree of freedom at a time. The fingers and palms are made up of soft polymer layers, as well as tiny motors and electronic components.<\/p>\n<div class=\"aawp\">\n<div class=\"aawp-product aawp-product--horizontal\" data-aawp-product-asin=\"B07TZP8WWZ\" data-aawp-product-id=\"230891\" data-aawp-tracking-id=\"tec02e-20\" data-aawp-product-title=\"Unitree G1 Humanoid Robot\uff08No Secondary Development\uff09\">\n<div class=\"aawp-product__thumb\">\n<p>            <img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aawp-product__image\" src=\"https:\/\/m.media-amazon.com\/images\/I\/41V+YgoPxVL._SL160_.jpg\" alt=\"Unitree G1 Humanoid Robot\uff08No Secondary Development\uff09\"\/><\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"aawp-product__content\">\n<p>            Unitree G1 Humanoid Robot\uff08No Secondary Development\uff09        <\/p>\n<div class=\"aawp-product__description\">\n<ul>\n<li>Sleek &amp; Durable Design: Standing at 132cm tall and weighing only approx. 35kg, the G1 is constructed with aerospace-grade aluminum alloy and carbon&#8230;<\/li>\n<li>High Flexibility &amp; Safe Movement: Boasting 23 joint degrees of freedom (6 per leg, 5 per arm), it offers an extensive range of motion.

These packs are constructed of aerospace-grade materials, and there\u2019s even a way to monitor their health. It checks in on them 100 times each second to ensure they\u2019re ready to travel. Cooling passages run along the top and bottom of the pack to keep everything steady when utilized at maximum intensity.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/images.techeblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/03000152\/1x-hayward-factory-tour-neo-humanoid-robot-2.jpg\" alt=\"1X Hayward Factory Tour NEO Humanoid Robot\" width=\"1280\" height=\"720\"\/><br \/>As this is going on, the robot\u2019s main computer, the Cortex, is outfitted with an NVIDIA Jetson Thor board, stereo cameras, microphones, and sensors. All of these modules are pre-kitted and simply slide into each station, wasting no space. Once the joints and limbs are put together, the final components begin to fall into place. The robot takes shape gradually, with each station contributing one more bit of functionality at a time. There is a rapid check for any faults right away, and the tools ensure that parts only fit in the correct way. Tendons are given an early start to avoid future issues. It everything comes together at the end of the line, where the robot stands upright for the first time, looking quite vertical. Covers and the outer soft suit are then carefully placed on, which is a delicate operation, before the last inspection to ensure everything is in order.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/images.techeblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/03000158\/1x-hayward-factory-tour-neo-humanoid-robot-3.jpg\" alt=\"1X Hayward Factory Tour NEO Humanoid Robot\" width=\"1280\" height=\"720\"\/><br \/>Some of the first NEO units are already hard at work on the factory floor. They are transporting bins of gears and pulleys from one location to another, sorting parts, or transferring commodities. It\u2019s odd to watch robots helping out by handling the simple tasks so that humans may focus on the more complex ones. They\u2019ll eventually make their way into households, but for the time being, they\u2019re helping out on the production line by performing simple repeating jobs. More positions, like as general facility duties, will become available shortly, allowing human workers to focus on more difficult tasks. Production is currently in full swing, with plans to produce 10,000 robots per year, a second facility in the pipeline, and a goal of more than 100,000 robots per year by the end of 2027.<br \/><span>[Source]<\/span><\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p><!-- \u603b\u5bb9\u5668\uff1a\u6700\u5927\u5bbd908px Grid\u7d27\u51d1\u5e03\u5c40 -->\r\n<div style=\"display: grid;
