Profit migration: 2026 / 2028 / 2030

From bottleneck screws to modules, then brain and services

What is still unclear?

Write what you still want explained. Questions go to the author and are not shown publicly.

  1. 2026–2027
    Money in roller screws, 6-axis/tactile, harmonics, hollow-cup—gap still open
  2. 2028–2030
    Money in joint modules and yield engineering; single-part differentiation erodes
  3. 2030+
    Money in brain, chips, services—if the real-world data loop closes

Near-term certainty in screws and sensors; then joint modules and yield; only later models, chips, and services.
