Research / Agentic Manufacturing

Software agents for the manufacturing workflow.

ARMS investigates agents that operate and coordinate traditional manufacturing software and machines, with the goal of reducing reliance on manual interaction across CAD, CAM, and CNC.

The research direction

Connect the steps from design to manufacture.

Design Operator Agent

Working with CAD software and design inputs.

CAM Operator Agent

Working with manufacturing planning software.

Machine Operator Agent
