Building high-mix high-volume future with robots and AI @machinalabs_
(1/9) @MachinaLabs_, we're working on full automation in manufacturing through our 'Robocraftsman' technology—robotic cells designed to turn design intent directly into physical products. This concept is akin to the shift in the digital world, where cloud computing allowed…
In the wake of Meta’s hiring blitz: Traditional HR wisdom says retain talent. The real flex? Circulate talent. Innovation compounds when smart people move within reason. Everyone levels up. Locking people down is just fear dressed as strategy. Your moat isn’t who you trap.
Industrial gods descend; brutalist glory in a scene that could’ve marched straight out of Giedi Prime.
Your engineers do 9 to 5. Ours make technical diagrams that can be in art galleries😉
.@MachinaLabs_ is no longer just sheet metal ops company. We do plates with big ass robots! >5mm thick. Ship building here we come! Giant truck in the background for scale.
When we grow up we want to build a portable machine that could instantly shape and launch UAVs or missiles out of sheet metal… like this paper airplane shooter. Oh wait 😂🤣
I used to tell investors hardware is hard and that’s the natural moat. Meanwhile, BYD just did a burnout around Tesla and waved.😂🤣😅
If we Roboform something like this in sheet metal; 15ft x 5ft; do you think folks get the joke?
Machina East facility parking lot. Choose your fighter: 1- Anvil, hand forged by robots with curves built for the apocalypse 2- Cybertruck, sleek and shiny but let’s be real, more fridge than truck 😂 We love all trucks equally. Just not equally equally.

Anduril is planning to shake up the 30 percent DoD spends on new systems but 70 percent goes to sustainment imagine the impact of “an Anduril of sustainment” can make!
How do you improve mission readiness in an era of contested logistics? ✅Build closer to the fight ✅Strengthen allied sustainment ✅Invest in AI & robotic manufacturing Proud to join @AF_Sustainment, @GoviniDefense, and policymakers for a vital conversation on strengthening…
How was your weekend? We just mapped out the future of manufacturing at @MachinaLabs_ till 2035. Light stuff.
No! Carbon is way overused in aerospace. Future generations will cringe the same way we do when we hear Romans drank water from lead pipes.
Is carbon fiber really the best choice of body for single use suicide drones? Is the weight saving really so significant that it validates the more complex supply chain?
Great news and exiting times in advanced manufacturing. Hadrian’s doing some finance jiu jitsu, blending equity, debt, and good old facility financing. Back in the day, startup letter rounds basically meant equity only. But now, with new tech layered on top of commoditized…
Hadrian is announcing a $260m Series C lead by @foundersfund + @Lux_Capital + @MorganStanley for (Factory Expansion financing). We're also welcoming new investors @altimeter, @1789Capital + investments from existing investors @a16z, @constructcap, @137ventures and many others.…
If Michael Moritz was the nemesis who forged Peter Thiel, then by the cyclical laws of tech karma, somewhere out there a founder is being molded with Thiel now cast as the villain in their origin story 🧘🏻♂️
Every family’s got that one sibling who’s basically the NPC in the group photo. Sorry Rudi! They literally put him in the middle too 😂
My flaw? Clout kills the vibe. If it goes mainstream, I ghost it. Built different; in the worst way 😂🤣
Rare sighting in LA: mysterious men spotted paparazzi-ing their own custom truck like it’s a celebrity. Guilty!
RoboForming unlocks manufacturing possibilities traditional processes can’t… like restoring the oldest surviving B-17 Flying Fortress. We’re proud to see the Air Force Rapid Sustainment Office and @UDRI_1 using our #RoboCraftsman to produce a custom part for a one-of-a-kind…
