HMND 01 Alpha

Dual-armed mobile manipulator designed for industrial logistics, warehousing, and manufacturing tasks. Available in wheeled (industrial deployment) and bipedal configurations. At 220 cm tall, the HMND 01 Alpha has a bimanual payload of up to 15 kg, a top speed of 7.2 kph, and 29 active degrees of freedom excluding end-effectors. Interchangeable end-effectors include a 12-DoF five-fingered hand and a 1-DoF parallel gripper. Onboard sensing includes 360-degree RGB cameras and two depth sensors. Managed via the company's KinetIQ fleet management framework. Unveiled by Humanoid (SKL Robotics Ltd.) in September 2025 as the UK's first industrial humanoid robot. Beta version scheduled for Q3 2026; commercial RaaS deployment at Schaeffler starts December 2026.
