Breaking your conception of brakes: if you can fit two pieces of paper, you can fit a brake! Join us at the #Automate2024 Innovation Stage tomorrow, Thursday May 9th, at 12:45. Our VP of Engineering, Kirby Witte, will explain how you can retrofit your motion systems with our revolutionary electroadhesive brakes to keep your motors cool and help them last longer. Watch this video from SCHNEEBERGER North America to see exactly how our UltraSlim Brakes integrate with linear rails. #electrostatics #automation #linearbrakes #robotics

Reducing actuator energy consumption by up to 97%! Check out this awesome work from Erez Krimsky and Steve Collins at Stanford University using paper-thin low power electroadhesives sourced from ESTAT Actuation: https://lnkd.in/dqKVkXve It's really exciting to see electroadhesive clutches implemented in ways that make humanoids, mobile robots, and wearable robots much more efficient and practical.

It was awesome to get a quote in the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette about ESTAT's residency in the Robotics Factory! We'll be leveraging their manufacturing expertise and using their equipment to accelerate low-cost scaled production of our electroadhesive clutch and brake products. https://lnkd.in/dAYuAmKU
Five companies ready to ‘Scale’ through Robotics Factory residency program

It was great to present at the Carnegie Mellon University Percolator event last Friday! Great attendance, and a lot of excitement about our product line of electroadhesive brakes and clutches. I personally enjoy sharing about our journey spinning out from the university setting, and highlighting what it takes to built a hardware product!
