Integrated Actuators for Humanoid Robots
A new chapter for Stabilus in humanoid actuation begins with the partnership between Stabilus and Synapticon.
Together, we are laying the foundation for advanced high-volume actuator production – delivering solutions that are powerful, scalable, and ready for industrial use.
If you would like to learn more about how our path toward this goal is evolving, where we stand today, and what we plan to do next on this exciting journey, visit this blog page.
Transparent, human, and authentic.
What customers can expect
For our customers, this partnership means faster access to forward-looking technology, the highest quality standards, and solutions that help bridge the gap between innovation and real-world application. For Stabilus, this partnership is a natural next step in actively shaping the future of intelligent motion – with the clear goal of making robotics possible at scale.
Where we come from
Stabilus brings strong credentials from the automotive industry: decades of experience in high-volume manufacturing, industrial excellence, and global production expertise. This strength is essential not only for developing innovative actuation solutions, but also for bringing them to market efficiently, at scale, and with consistently high quality. In this way, technological innovation becomes a scalable solution for the robotics of tomorrow.
About Synapticon
Synapticon develops drive technology and functional safety for robots. Rather than focusing on individual components, the team takes a system-wide approach: servo drives, actuators, and safety architecture are designed together from the very beginning. Since 2012, Synapticon, based in Schönaich near Stuttgart, has been working with manufacturers of humanoid robots, cobots, and mobile robots worldwide.
From Cars to Humanoids: Stabilus and Synapticon are bringing integrated actuators into mass production.
Synapticon provides the actuator systems, drive technology, and safety architecture, while Stabilus handles industrialization, automotive-grade quality, and process reliability in series production. In the first video, Simon Fischinger and David Sabet explain why a humanoid joint is more than just a motor and a gearbox, and why only when the two are combined can the path from prototype to mass production be paved.
