Xiaomi Robots Achieve Multi-Station Collaboration in EV Factory

The post highlights Xiaomi's robot advancements in its EV factory: instead of being restricted to a single station, robots are now assigned two tougher tasks—sorting large flexible control panels and folding turnover boxes.
Key metrics provided include:
- Self-tapping nut loading accuracy has reached 98%
- Performance on the two new tasks is around 90%
The author emphasizes that the real breakthrough lies in the control stack capabilities rather than just the numbers. This includes whole-body extension, dual-arm re-grasping, active compliance, fine fingertip control, and multi-robot collaboration. Transitioning from single-station to multi-station operations, and ultimately collaborating with other robots, represents a much more significant upgrade.
