Partnership pairs Sereact's physical AI platform with collaborative industrial robots from Universal Robots (UR) to bring intelligent, adaptable automation to real-world operations previously hard to automate, such as the processing of returned fashion items.
BERLIN--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Teradyne Robotics – the company behind Universal Robots and Mobile Industrial Robots – and Sereact, a pioneer in physical AI for robotics, today announced a new, official partnership to accelerate industrial AI solutions in retail, logistics and manufacturing.
"Physical AI only matters when it performs in real-world operations, and that is where Universal Robots has always been at home" Jacob Pascual Pape, Chief Commercial Officer, Teradyne Robotics
Share Through this partnership, Sereact's physical AI platform, Cortex, runs robot arms from Universal Robots to give retailers and logistics providers a proven way to automate unstructured tasks such as returns handling and piece-picking.
Together, the companies have already shipped hundreds of UR robots in dual-arm systems to live customer sites across Europe.
Jacob Pascual Pape, Chief Commercial Officer of Teradyne Robotics, said:
“Physical AI only matters when it performs in real-world operations, and that is where Universal Robots has always been at home. Our robots are built for the AI era: open, connected and proven through more than 100,000 industrial deployments. That is why Sereact has chosen our platform,” he said. “When combined with Sereact's Cortex, the joint solution handles mixed goods, unknown items, and varied packaging. This has moved well beyond the demo or pilot stage with the technology now usefully deployed at real customer sites. Our technologies are a natural fit and through our partnership we will scale these AI-powered solutions fast across applications, industries and markets.”
To serve the rapidly growing demand, Sereact this summer opened a US HQ in Boston, Massachusetts, to also bring the joint solution to North America.
One model, many applications
The Sereact and Teradyne Robotics solutions deliver impact across a variety of critical logistics and manufacturing use cases, including returns handling, store replenishment, piece-picking and sortation, order induction, machine tending, bin consolidation, kitting, packing and goods handling.
“Returns, replenishment, kitting: with Cortex, every one of these applications runs on the same production model. One brain serves every robot, with no retraining for each new item or task. And what one robot learns, every robot benefits from,” said Dr. Ralf Gulde, CEO and Co-Founder, Sereact. “Partnering with Teradyne Robotics and its global distribution and integrator network helps us bring that one brain to their customers around the world, accelerating the abilities of retailers and logistics providers to adopt AI-powered automation across their operations.”
Live at NVIDIA GTC Berlin
The companies are marking the partnership with a joint demo at this week’s NVIDIA GTC Berlin 2026. In the NVIDIA booth, Cortex, Sereact's Vision-Language-Action (VLA) model, runs on two Universal Robots UR12e-1300s to show a returns handling applications that is already implemented in live logistics centers.
The deployments are done in collaboration with CEVA Logistics for Zalando, a European technology platform for fashion and lifestyle, connecting 62 million active customers with more than 7,000 brands across 29 markets. At Zalando's fulfillment centers in Greven, Germany, and Świebodzin, Poland, the robots now autonomously process returned fashion items. This is the first phase of a broader initiative to scale returns automation across Europe.
“Returns are one of the hardest jobs in logistics. Returned products almost never arrive in a robot-friendly sequence. Items differ in shape, orientation and packaging, and the mix changes continuously. That is exactly what Cortex is built to handle on the Universal Robots platform,” said Dr. Gulde and adds: ”By rapidly reconditioning returned goods for resale, the solution also helps retailers comply with European Union regulations prohibiting the destruction or landfill disposal of returned merchandise.”

Amazon (AMZN +0.72%) built one of the market's great fortunes by getting in early on a massive technology shift. Now, Teradyne (TER -5.71%) is betting on an opportunity that could be even bigger: robotics and physical AI. The question for investors is whether this setup can produce the kind of early-mover payoff that turned Amazon shareholders into millionaires.
Teradyne is riding the shift toward physical AI Teradyne's robotics business is moving beyond traditional automation toward what the company calls physical AI, robots that make decisions and handle tasks that were previously hard to automate.
For example, at Automate 2026, Teradyne Robotics showcased its production-ready applications across logistics and manufacturing, including its MiR1200 Pallet Jack, which uses AI to operate in dynamic environments.

That matters because it gives Teradyne exposure to a much larger robotics market rather than simply selling robotic arms. Just like Amazon in its early days, Teradyne is built around an emerging technology before it has reached anything close to its full potential.
On top of that, Robotics revenue reached around $100 million in the second quarter of 2026, marking the fifth consecutive quarter of growth. Teradyne said demand was particularly strong from electronics manufacturing and semiconductor customers, which had become the segment's largest end markets.
That brings us to one of Teradyne's strongest moats.

Universal Robots gives Teradyne a head start Teradyne says its robotics business has sold more than 110,000 cobots, short for collaborative robots, worldwide since its Universal Robots subsidiary introduced its commercially viable cobot in 2008. These robots are designed to integrate into existing production environments, working alongside human employees.
That installed base can become increasingly valuable as robotics gets smarter. Teradyne already has robots in factories, so it doesn't have to convince manufacturers to completely overhaul their operations. Instead, newer AI capabilities can simply be added to existing deployments, which means the opportunity lies in making those cobots increasingly capable over time.
Like Amazon, Teradyne has an established customer base today and can easily sell more sophisticated technology to those customers in the future.
But one of the most interesting developments is Teradyne's push to combine robotics with physical AI. Nvidia identified Universal Robots among the robotics companies building on its technology as the industry moves toward production-scale physical AI. Teradyne Robotics is also using Nvidia's Physical AI Data Factory Blueprint to speed up robotics development.
Plus, Teradyne has also been moving toward applications that can handle messy environments, including AI-powered bin picking and logistics, areas where robots need more than simple repeatable movements. From there, Teradyne is making another move that could remove a huge barrier to adoption: complexity.
Teradyne is making it easier for customers to deploy robots Teradyne Robotics partnered with Vention to develop a digital twin platform for Universal Robots. The idea is simple: Manufacturers can design and simulate robotic work cells digitally before building them. The platform also comes with ready-to-use Universal Robots setups, proven automation templates, and compatible components.
That could make automation less intimidating for companies without large robotics engineering teams. In other words, that's another part of the Amazon-like setup worth watching. Amazon's early strategy wasn't simply having an online bookstore. It was about building the systems, customer relationships, and infrastructure that could support much broader adoption over time.
Teradyne is following a playbook similar to Amazon's, which could make it just as good an investment.
Is Teradyne stock a buy right now? Teradyne has the kind of setup that can make an emerging-technology story interesting, similar to Amazon in its early days. It has an established business, exposure to physical AI, and a robotics platform that could grow as adoption picks up. If physical AI and robotics take off, Teradyne could have the kind of long-term growth setup that turned early Amazon investors into millionaires.
Teradyne strategicky investuje do Bright Machines a plánuje integrovat své robotické a testovací technologie s její softwarově definovanou výrobní platformou pro infrastrukturu AI.
Investment and planned collaboration pair Teradyne robotics and test technologies with Bright Machines' software-defined manufacturing platform | Source: Bright Machines, Inc.
NORTH READING, Mass. and SAN FRANCISCO, Oct. 05, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Teradyne, Inc. (NASDAQ: TER), a leading provider of automated test equipment and advanced robotics systems, and Bright Machines, Inc., a next-generation manufacturer bringing AI and data center infrastructure production to the edge, today announced a strategic investment by Teradyne in Bright Machines. The investment accompanies a strategic collaboration focused on integrating Teradyne robotics and test technologies with Bright Machines’ software-defined manufacturing platform and advancing AI infrastructure manufacturing.
Building the AI Backbone
AI infrastructure is driving one of the largest electronics manufacturing buildouts in recent history. As hyperscalers, AI laboratories, silicon providers, and OEMs invest in next-generation compute, manufacturing has become a determinant of deployment speed, quality, and economic value, and manufacturers place a premium on lines that can be reconfigured in software as product designs refresh.
Teradyne works with manufacturers across that ecosystem, including EMS and ODM providers, OEMs, and hyperscalers, supplying the robotics and test technologies that make high-mix, high-value electronics production possible. Bright Machines brings a unique software-defined manufacturing platform spanning design, robotics, automation, inspection, material movement, production intelligence, and operations, with a history of more than 130 microfactory deployments across 10+ countries and, today, active AI infrastructure production in the United States.
"Physical AI is changing what is possible on the factory floor, and Teradyne and Bright Machines are partnering to accelerate this evolution," said Shantnu Sharma, chief development officer, Teradyne. "The combination of Bright Machines depth in software-defined manufacturing, and Teradyne’s decades of experience in robotics and test gives companies building AI infrastructure a faster path from design into production, with data behind every unit they build."
What the Companies Will Explore
The companies intend to evaluate integrating Teradyne technologies into Bright Machines manufacturing environments, including precision robotic assembly, robotic loading and unloading of test equipment, and autonomous movement of materials across the factory.
The central idea behind the partnership is deployment at Bright Machines’ and customers’ own sites, where the Bright Machines manufacturing platform, Universal Robots collaborative robots, and Teradyne board test systems would operate together on a production floor. Each produces a distinct stream of information: assembly and inspection data, robot and material-movement data, and electrical test results. By connecting these data streams with Bright Machines’ product genealogy and manufacturing intelligence capabilities, customers can maintain an end-to-end production data thread linking design decisions, assembly execution, and electrical performance.
“What limits automation today is not what a robot can physically do but how much engineering it takes to tell it what to do,” said James Davidson, chief AI officer, Teradyne. “When a robot can pick up a new task in hours instead of being re-engineered over weeks, high-mix, short lifecycle production becomes the default. Once build data and test data sit in the same loop, the line can correct itself quickly.”
“The next generation of AI infrastructure calls for a manufacturing approach that is more automated, software-defined, data-driven, and responsive to change,” said Sviat Dulianinov, chief executive officer, Bright Machines. “Teradyne's expertise, and the investment that comes with it, helps us validate that approach. Their robotics and test technologies are complementary to our platform, and together we can help customers simplify integration, accelerate deployment, and maintain a complete production data thread.”
“Manufacturing is where AI becomes physical,” said Lior Susan, founder and CEO of Eclipse and co-founder and chairman of Bright Machines. “The AI buildout will be won by companies that can turn increasingly complex hardware into production quickly, reliably, and at scale. Teradyne brings decades of leadership in robotics and test, making them a powerful partner as Bright Machines builds the manufacturing infrastructure for the AI era.”
AI infrastructure manufacturing is demanding: product complexity is high, design cycles are short, quality requirements are stringent, and schedules leave little room for rework. Manufacturers serving this market increasingly value an integrated approach spanning manufacturing design, intelligent robotics, autonomous material movement and inspection, and end-to-end production intelligence, delivered as one coordinated system. Together, Bright Machines' software-defined manufacturing platform and Teradyne's robotics and test portfolio aim to bring these pieces together to lead AI infrastructure buildouts.

In the second quarter of 2026, compute revenues within SOC grew nearly 600% year over year, and memory test revenues hit a record $212 million, driven by HBM, DRAM, and renewed demand for NAND. The company is also making strategic moves in networking and optical test, acquiring Quantifi Photonics and developing new solutions for emerging technologies like co-packaged optics, which is expected to be a $300-$700 million market by 2028.
Teradyne Benefits From Strong Robotics DemandTeradyne is benefiting from a robust performance in its Robotics segment, which has become an increasingly important driver of growth for the company. In the second quarter of 2026, Robotics revenues reached $100 million, marking a 33% year-over-year increase and a 9% rise sequentially.
Electronics manufacturing and semiconductor revenues within Robotics surged 50% from the first quarter, making it the largest end market segment in this group. This growth is closely tied to the ongoing build-out of AI data centers and the broader trend toward automation in manufacturing and assembly processes. U.S. sales rose to 32% of Robotics revenues and a U.S. manufacturing center remains on schedule to open later in 2026.
Management expects Robotics to grow in the second half as data center construction drives more rack shipments and automation demand at contract manufacturers and original design manufacturers. Over time, robot-assisted test, assembly and data center operations can widen the addressable market beyond traditional factory automation.
TER Initiates Positive Q3 GuidanceTeradyne’s expanding portfolio and strong demand for AI-related applications are expected to drive the company’s top-line growth.
For the third quarter of 2026, Teradyne expects revenues in the range of $1.20-$1.30 billion. The Zacks Consensus Estimate for third-quarter 2026 revenues is pegged at $1.27 billion, suggesting a 64.67% year-over-year increase.
For the third quarter, the company’s non-GAAP earnings are expected to be between $1.85 and $2.15 per share. The consensus mark for earnings is pegged at $1.91 per share, which has increased 36.42% over the past 30 days. This indicates growth of 124.71% on a year-over-year basis.
What Should Investors Do With TER Stock?Teradyne’s robust, diversified portfolio, which meets the rising demand for AI-driven technologies, is consistently contributing to its growth prospects. These factors have justified its premium valuation.

Teradyne oznámila rekordní výsledky za 2. čtvrtletí, když výnosy z AI přesáhly 60 % tržeb. Firma zároveň očekává, že trh automatizovaného testovacího vybavení do konce dekády dosáhne nebo překročí 20 miliard USD.
Key Takeaways Teradyne posted record Q2 results as AI-related revenues surpassed 60% of sales across all three groups.Management sees the automated test equipment market reaching or topping $20 billion by decade-end.TER expects compute share gains from 2027 after a second hyperscaler correlation and first merchant GPU order. Teradyne, Inc. (TER - Free Report) used its second-quarter 2026 earnings call to position record results as part of a multiyear AI-driven expansion. Management linked demand across its businesses to the data center build-out.
Non-GAAP EPS of $2.47 topped the Zacks Consensus Estimate of $2.04, while revenues of $1.33 billion exceeded the $1.22 billion estimate. Management expressed stronger conviction in 2027 growth, share gains and a larger automated test equipment market.
TER Frames AI as a Multiyear CyclePresident and CEO Gregory Smith said that AI-related revenues exceeded 60% of sales. Demand extended from accelerators and memory to networking, storage, power, board test and robotics.
Smith said that all three business groups grew year over year and sequentially. That breadth supported the wafer-to-AI-data-center strategy, which targets opportunities from semiconductor production through rack assembly.
Longer data center investment plans are giving chipmakers confidence to add wafer capacity, Smith said. He expects another year of healthy growth in 2027.
Teradyne Sees ATE TAM ExpansionSmith said that rising wafer-fab-equipment spending and advanced packaging are reshaping automated test equipment growth. More wafers, denser nodes and complex multichip packages increase transistors, bits and required test intensity.
Management sees WFE spending approaching $250 billion by decade end and the ATE TAM reaching or exceeding $20 billion. Test spending rose from about 4% of semiconductor capital outlays in 2023 to 8% in the first five months of 2026.
A UBS analyst asked how durable that ratio is. Smith said that it may settle between 7% and 9%, noting that WFE and ATE revenue often differ because test demand follows fab investment with a lag.
TER Expects Share Gains to BuildSmith said that TER completed correlation with a second AI hyperscaler and shipped its first merchant GPU order. He expects these milestones to support compute share gains beginning in 2027.
He also stated that progress will be gradual. One compute customer is at the mature dual-vendor stage, one is a fast follower, and one remains in qualification. Fast-follower share may rise toward 30%.
A Bank of America analyst asked about server CPU exposure. Smith said that greater ARM adoption would improve TER’s share opportunity, while the company continues pursuing x86 business.
Teradyne Broadens Its Data Center ReachCFO Michelle Turner said that Semi Test revenues were $1.12 billion, including $843 million in system-on-chip test, $212 million in memory and $67 million in industrial systems test. Memory set a record on HBM, DRAM and NAND demand.
Turner highlighted Product Test revenues of $107 million and Robotics revenues of $100 million. The Omnyx board-test platform, the Multilane Test Products joint venture and electronics-manufacturing demand extended AI exposure beyond chip test.
Smith said networking growth spans copper, pluggable optics and co-packaged optics. He put the 2028 CPO test market at $300-$700 million and a 2027 low-end scenario around $200 million.
TER Guides to a Firmer Second HalfTurner guided third-quarter revenues to $1.2-$1.3 billion and non-GAAP EPS to $1.85-$2.15. Gross margin is expected at 58-59%, with operating expenses at 29-30% of sales.
Management expects first-half revenues to represent 50% to 52% of full-year sales, reflecting better second-half visibility. Growth is expected in memory, auto and industrial, industrial systems test, Product Test and Robotics, offset by mobile weakness and compute timing.
Turner said that product mix, memory and launches should put full-year gross margin near 59%. Fourth-quarter operating expenses should be comparable to the third quarter as Teradyne invests for 2027.
Teradyne Keeps Investing for 2027Turner said that second-quarter free cash flow was $378 million and cash and investments totaled $517 million. Priorities remain R&D, operational scaling and M&A flexibility, alongside $20 million of dividends and $69 million of buybacks.
Smith’s overarching message was that current spending on products and customer teams reflects confidence in sustained AI demand. Management plans to update its target earnings model on the fourth-quarter earnings call.
