REDWOOD CITY, CA and TAICHUNG, Taiwan, July 29, 2025 – Dexterity has announced a partnership with HIWIN Technologies to expand the use of robots in industrial workplaces. Together, they will produce robot arms for Dexterity’s Mech platform – a mobile, two-armed robot designed for complex tasks in industrial applications. This collaboration signals a step forward in automating repetitive work, raising questions about how Physical AI could soon change daily operations in U.S. industries.

HIWIN developed lightweight, 8-degree-of-freedom robotic arms for the Mech platform, balancing strength and weight to support deployment in warehouse operations. The design enables lifting beyond OSHA’s single-person limit and simplifies integration. This partnership supports production scale-up and broad of AI-enabled robotics across North America, Asia, and Europe.

“Our partnership with HIWIN gives Dexterity the world-class manufacturing expertise needed to deliver advanced robotics at scale,” said Samir Menon, CEO of Dexterity. “With HIWIN’s precision engineering and Dexterity’s unique Physical AI approach, we are bringing a new category of enterprise-grade, industrial Mechs to customers for multiple industries worldwide.”

“Dexterity’s innovative Mech design and Physical AI capabilities are delivering transformational value to large enterprises that have yet to benefit from robotics,” said Eddie Chuo, chairman and CEO of HIWIN Technologies. “The Mech’s flexibility and intelligence unlock value for business leaders in parcel, ground logistics, retail, e-commerce, and many other markets where adaptability and physical AI-powered intelligence provides a significant advantage.”
