Maximo Robotics announced that its US-made robotic system has completed more than 300,000 construction tasks on utility-scale photovoltaic projects. These tasks are performed under "robotics-as-a-service" contracts, with customers paying per completed task; completed work includes autonomous placement of heavy PV modules with millimeter-level precision, and contract expansion options cover module installation and on-site logistics. The company says workers collaborating with the Max 4.0 system achieve an installation efficiency of 2.5 times that of manual labor alone per person per shift-hour. Projects currently cover six major EPC contractors, multiple project owners, and sites in states including California, Illinois, Kansas, Louisiana, New York, Texas and Washington. The above efficiency figures and task scale are all company claims.
