Overview
Xynova Flex 1 is Xynova tendon-driven dexterous robotic hand for humanoids. It uses 25 degrees of freedom, 20 active joints and in-house micro servo actuators to support lightweight, flexible and powerful object manipulation.
Market context
Xynova Flex 1 is a tendon-driven dexterous hand and forearm module for humanoid and manipulation platforms, with 25 DoF, integrated force sensing and fast open/close response in the official product material.
- Target environment: Humanoid hands, robot-arm end effectors and dexterous manipulation research or supplier-integration workflows.
- Workflow context: Robot builders integrate the hand module to add dexterous grasping and tactile/force feedback without developing the full hand actuation stack internally.
- Customer context: Humanoid developers, manipulation labs and robotics companies sourcing dexterous hand components.
- Deployment model: Commercial component product positioned by Xynova as part of its humanoid component stack.
- Commercial maturity: Commercial component product with concrete specification depth; integration maturity depends on customer platform work.
- Adoption constraints: Adoption depends on mechanical/electrical integration, control software, durability, cost and fit to the target manipulation tasks.
- Market position: Positioned as a supplier-ready dexterous-hand module rather than a complete robot.
- Adjacent products: Adjacent products include robotic hands, tendon-driven end effectors, micro linear actuators and humanoid manipulation components.
Workflow
Robot builders integrate the hand module to add dexterous grasping and tactile/force feedback without developing the full hand actuation stack internally.
Deployment environment
Humanoid hands, robot-arm end effectors and dexterous manipulation research or supplier-integration workflows.
