Machina Labs is a startup using AI-controlled robotic arms to manufacture complex metal parts through electromagnetic forming — enabling fast prototyping and small-batch aerospace components. HQ: Los Angeles.
Machina Labs is an advanced manufacturing company that has developed a robotic metal forming process combining AI-controlled robotic arms, force sensing, and electromagnetic forming (EMF) to manufacture complex sheet metal parts without traditional stamping dies. Founded in 2019 by former SpaceX engineers Edward Mehr and Babak Raeisinia, the company's Roboforming technology uses two industrial robot arms, each equipped with a force-sensing forming tool, to precisely shape metal sheets into complex 3D geometries through incremental forming movements controlled by AI path-planning algorithms. Dies — which cost $100,000+ and take months to produce — are eliminated entirely.
Mountain View construction layout robot (FieldPrinter 2) at 10K-15K sq ft/day, 10x manual speed with 1/16" accuracy; $69.5M total printing 100M+ sq ft for DPR/Turner/Skanska competing with Trimble for BIM-to-field layout automation.
Dusty Robotics is a Mountain View, California-based construction robotics company — backed with $69.5 million in total funding from Root Ventures, Scale Venture Partners, Canaan Partners, GRIDS Capital, and Cantos — providing general contractors and construction teams with the FieldPrint Platform: a BIM-to-field robotic layout solution that uses the FieldPrinter robot to print precise floor markings from digital building models, replacing the manual chalk-line and tape-measure layout process that construction crews use to mark where walls, electrical, plumbing, and structural elements will be built. The FieldPrinter 2 (launched January 2024) lays out 10,000-15,000 square feet per day with one operator at 1/16 inch accuracy — approximately 10x faster than manual layout methods — and has printed over 100 million square feet across thousands of projects for customers including DPR, Turner, and Skanska. Named one of Fast Company's Most Innovative Companies of 2024 in the robotics category. Founded in 2018.
