Air bladder production company? Not to be confused with the greek goddess Artemis, the origins of the name of Artimus Robotics came from its core technology, HASEL actuation technology, which provides artificial, muscle-like actuation that is being commercialized over a wide range of industries and applications. Muscle-like actuators such as the HASEL actuator have earned the name ‘Artificial Muscles’ thanks to their ability to reproduce the performance of natural muscles. The founding team of Artimus Robotics took inspiration from the term, “Artificial Muscles” to form a portmanteau of “artificial” and “muscle” which became coupled into “Arti-mus.”
Artimus Robotics is enabling a new generation of robots and machines. Led by a world-class team of experts in soft robotics, we make a profound impact on the future of robotics and automation by solving the biggest motion challenges that face our customers. Invented and developed in Boulder, Colorado, our cutting-edge technology, HASEL artificial muscles, is at the forefront of robotic innovation, and we are only just getting started.
HASEL actuator force and displacement output is variable and highly controllable with an analog voltage signal. HASEL actuators are capable of meeting the new demands of future ocean exploration with unmanned vehicle technology. Navigating small spaces. NASA has already shared its interest in soft robots to explore small spaces on other planets. Soft robots could be able to work their way into gaps between rocks or collect geological samples with more accuracy. On Earth, soft robots could help in earthquake (or other) disaster zones to access tight areas covered in rubble.

HASEL (Hydraulically Amplified Self-healing ELectrostatic) actuator technology operates when electrostatic forces are applied to a flexible polymer pouch and dielectric liquid to drive shape change in a soft structure. These principles can be applied to achieve a contracting motion, expanding motion, or other complex deformations. HASEL actuator technology is electrically driven and couples electrostatic and hydraulic forces so a wide variety of actuation modes are possible. In industrial markets, where labor shortages are a constant challenge, advanced automation technologies are needed. At Artimus, we provide actuator technologies that truly replicate the abilities of human muscle, meaning any task that a person can do, our technology can replicate.
Artimus Robotics engineers, designs, and manufactures connected hardware which offers intelligent lifelike motion for the next generation of automation, robotics, and consumer devices. We make a meaningful and positive impact on the way the world moves for the benefit of both individuals and society. Interested in purchasing only one HASEL actuator?
