Mantis™ Goes to Work: Proving Economic Viability 💪

Watch on YouTube

Against the record

Hadrian X, from FBR (formerly Fastbrick Robotics), is at stage 4 of 5 on our ladder: paying customers. Delivered and paid for, beyond pilots. The latest milestone on its record is from Oct 2026: FBR's website offers Hadrian for purchase by selected partners, at a base price of A$7.8 million. It lists a top speed of 360 blocks an hour.

From the video's description

Now that Mantis™ has passed its Factory Acceptance Test, we’re putting it to actual work. Instead of buying steel for demonstration pieces, we’ll weld real parts that end up with customers, charging the end-user customers or fabricators along the way. Customers get their welding done, and FBR proves the economic viability of Mantis™ with real-world data on how productive and cost efficient it is.
