Zhenming Xing

About

Zhenming Xing is a robotics researcher specializing in the design and control of specialized robots for high-precision industrial and nuclear safety applications. His work spans two critical domains: high-speed handling for the flat panel display (FPD) industry and advanced inspection systems for nuclear power plant steam generators. In the FPD sector, Xing developed a high-speed handling robot with a bionic end-effector for large glass substrates, addressing the industry's need for larger, thinner panels with high-speed, high-precision handling in clean environments. His most impactful work, with 9 citations, focuses on this novel construction. In nuclear safety, Xing has made significant contributions to steam generator inspection, designing quadruped and mobile robots that navigate tube-sheets and heat transfer tubes. His 2024 paper on dimensional synthesis of an inspection robot (6 citations) and his 2023 work on high-efficiency task planning (5 citations) address critical challenges in remote, radiation-safe inspection. Xing’s research directly improves operational efficiency and safety in both high-tech manufacturing and nuclear power, demonstrating a clear impact on real-world industrial robotics.
