Raise Robotics :: Robotic Work Cells Specifically Engineered for Demanding Environments

Raise Robotics is a U.S.-based robotics company that develops intelligent, mobile robotic work cells specifically engineered for the demanding environments of construction, heavy fabrication, and shipbuilding. The company’s mission is to bring factory-grade precision and automation to trades that have historically relied on manual labor or scaffolding, reducing rework, improving safety, and increasing productivity on active jobsites.

The company’s flagship product is the Autonomous Mobile Fabricator (AMF) Work Cell. This self-contained robotic system combines a high-precision robotic arm, compute stack, and universal tool interface that can be deployed in three configurations: mounted on an autonomous ground vehicle (AGV) for floor-level work, attached to a Genie scissor lift for vertical and overhead tasks up to 30 feet, or integrated onto a Genie boom lift for articulated reach up to 65 feet. The AMF features an open tool interface that accepts standard handheld industrial tools, allowing it to perform layout marking with ±3 mm accuracy directly from BIM/CAD data, concrete drilling with full traceability, as-built scanning, and — in development — painting/coating and material movement.

All configurations run on the same software platform, enabling seamless transition between ground-level, elevated, and articulated applications. The system is designed for collaborative operation alongside human crews, incorporating 360° LiDAR and camera perception, e-stop functionality, speed-limited zones, remote monitoring via Foxglove, and complete digital logging of every task for QA and compliance. Customers can choose between a structured co-development path for custom applications or direct deployment of ready-to-use solutions (layout marking, drilling, or scanning) via annual lease or outright purchase.

Raise Robotics has already demonstrated real-world results, including a project at St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital that helped eliminate significant layout-related rework. The company positions its technology as a practical way for contractors to modernize traditional trade work without requiring fully enclosed robotic cells.
