This milestone signifies a shift from prototype experimentation to large-scale deployment, with over 500 Walker S2 units already in operation across various applications. UBTECH’s future plans include scaling up production to potentially manufacture up to 10,000 units annually by 2026.
The company has seen substantial interest from organizations seeking to automate physically demanding tasks traditionally performed by human workers standing for extended periods. Orders worth millions of yuan have already been secured, with prominent companies in China investing in advanced robotic systems for their operations. UBTECH’s humanoid robots have demonstrated reliability and efficiency in real-world industrial settings, attracting attention globally.
UBTECH’s introduction of synchronized humanoid robots in warehouse operations has garnered both fascination and skepticism, with some questioning the authenticity of the showcased capabilities. The company remains steadfast in its commitment to expanding its manufacturing capacity, aiming to produce a significant number of industrial humanoid robots yearly in the coming years.
