旧金山初创公司Industrial Next在TechCrunch Disrupt 2026大会上公开展示了其AI驱动的机器人系统，该系统能够通过模拟环境训练大幅缩短工厂生产线的任务转换时间1。相比传统方式需要耗费数周的改造周期，该公司声称其技术可将这一流程压缩至数分钟，无需采用传统编程方法1。
Industrial Next由特斯拉前首席电气架构师Lukas Pankau和前自动化工厂项目负责人Allen Pan于2021年共同创立1。公司已与宝马集团达成合作协议，双方正在评估这项AI驱动灵巧操作技术的应用前景1。该公司表示其机器人系统已被应用于全球最受欢迎的智能手机制造产线中，能够完成穿线和卡扣等传统自动化技术难以胜任的精密任务1。其中一项名为"电影剥离"的工作站可在100%精确度下以人类或更高的速度剥离保护膜1。
San Francisco startup Industrial Next has showcased an AI-driven robotic system designed to dramatically reduce factory reconfiguration times at TechCrunch Disrupt 2026.1 The company claims its technology can shrink the time needed to switch production lines from weeks to just minutes, eliminating the need for traditional programming.1
Industrial Next, founded in 2021 by former Tesla employees Lukas Pankau and Allen Pan, has partnered with BMW Group's technology division to evaluate its AI-powered dexterous manipulation capabilities.1 The company's robots are already deployed in the production of one of the world's most popular smartphones, handling precision tasks such as threading and snap fitting that have historically resisted automation.1 One application features a "film peel" workstation that removes protective membranes at 100% accuracy while operating at human speed or faster.1
Pankau previously served as Tesla's chief electrical architect before joining Waymo, while Pan led Tesla's factory automation projects before becoming chief architect at autonomous vehicle company Neolix.1
