The focus of this year’s Humanoid Summit in California was centered on advancing motion, dexterity, and reliability in next-generation humanoid robots. The event brought together engineers, developers, and system designers who are actively solving real-world challenges in robotic mobility and articulation.
CCTY’s booth showcased miniature bearings and robotic linkages designed specifically for compact, high-precision robotic joints. These components drew interest from attendees working on arms, hands, and multi-axis joints where tight envelopes, low torque, and long cycle life are critical. Many of our conversations with attendees focused on the same challenge: achieving smooth, repeatable motion in compact spaces while managing load, shock, and long-term reliability. These discussions reinforced the growing demand for precision components that are engineered to enhance repeatability and efficiency.
Beyond individual components, the summit provided an opportunity to discuss CCTY’s application-first approach, working from load cases, motion profiles, and environmental conditions to develop custom solutions. Engineers were particularly interested in how crossed roller bearings, spherical plain bearings, and linkage assemblies can be tailored to reduce part count while improving movement and control.
The summit also underscored the pace at which humanoid robotics is evolving. As designs move from concept to real-world deployment, component suppliers are being asked to contribute earlier in the development cycle.
At CCTY, we see this as a natural extension of our design-to-application approach, working alongside engineering teams to develop miniature bearings, robotic linkages, and assemblies that support stability, accuracy, and longevity. Our time at the Humanoid Summit reaffirmed our commitment to helping innovators turn ambitious robotic concepts into reliable, scalable solutions for diverse operating conditions.
