RISE-ing Above with Fluid-Free Actuation — Unlocking the Future of Sustainable Heavy Machinery
🎙️ Join us for this episode of the Inspectations podcast as host Justin Starbird sits down with Hiten Sonpal, President of RISE Robotics, to dive deep into the revolutionary potential of fluid-free actuation technology. Together, they explore how RISE’s breakthrough actuator system is reshaping the landscape of heavy machinery—making it cleaner, more efficient, and ultimately more sustainable.
🚧 Out with the old, in with the RISE!
Hiten breaks down how traditional hydraulics—once the go-to in construction, logistics, and defense—are now slowing down the global push toward electrification. That’s where RISE comes in! With a system that's 75% efficient and captures energy during movement 🔄, RISE isn’t just replacing hydraulics—they're redefining what’s possible. ⚡🌍
🛠️ RISE actuators are the real deal:
They feature built-in diagnostics, handle shock loads naturally, and use compliance-friendly components. Whether it’s at ports along the U.S. coasts ⚓ or deep in the mines of Australia ⛏️, demand for zero-emission solutions is booming—and RISE is ready to meet it head-on. 🌱
🚀 Momentum is building:
Hiten shares exciting updates—from a top-tier Wefunder campaign 💸 to the upcoming launch of their developer kit 🧰 and a highly anticipated liftgate pilot 🚛. But the biggest win? RISE’s mission to cut costs, increase productivity, and make the world a cleaner, wealthier place through smarter engineering. 💡🌎💰
🎧 Tune in if you’re:
An industry insider, investor, or just someone excited about the future of heavy machinery and electrification—you won’t want to miss this one! 🔊💥

About the Author: Justin Starbird I have been fortunate to have had several entrepreneurs that came before me take the time to “pull back the curtains” and allow me to be a part of their multi-million dollar companies… and actually value my input. They allowed me to see their mistakes and learn from their real-world lessons so that I wouldn’t have to pay the expensive costs of experience on my own. Additionally, they taught me what really works and the importance of action - not just ideas.
