From November 4 to 7, ROBOTWORLD 2026, Korea's largest international robotics exhibition, was held at KINTEX in Goyang, South Korea. With a focus on Physical AI and AI-driven manufacturing transformation, the event brought together global manufacturers of industrial robots, core components, and intelligent manufacturing solutions.
Huayan Robotics (HKEX: 1021) showcased its latest products and applications across core motion components, collaborative robots, and embodied intelligence. Powered by its Embodied Intelligence Motion Platform, the company demonstrated its capabilities in AI-enabled flexible manufacturing, drawing significant visitor interest.
Core Robotics Components for AI-Enabled Flexible Manufacturing
At the exhibition, Huayan Robotics showcased over 20 years of technological expertise in core robotic motion components. Centered on its recently launched Embodied Intelligence Motion Platform, the company presented a comprehensive portfolio of technologies and products, including high-performance motors, precision force control solutions, joint modules (including key modules for humanoid robots), and 7-axis humanoid robotic arms. Together, these offerings cover critical capabilities ranging from power and actuation to end-effector execution.
In the joint module segment, Huayan highlighted its key components, including motors, servo drives, and brakes. Highlights included its innovative permanent magnet brake technology, which can reduce energy consumption by up to 99% compared with conventional electromagnetic brakes, as well as more efficient servo drive technologies and vibration suppression technologies. The company also presented a systematic solution for managing heat generation during joint operation, giving embodied robots a reliable physical foundation.
Its joint solutions feature hollow-shaft designs with internal cable routing and hollow diameters as small as 12 mm. Combined with a range of transmission technologies—including harmonic, planetary, cycloidal, and linear mechanisms—these solutions offer application-specific actuation options tailored to different robotic positions and tasks.
Huayan Robotics' HY/Echo Series 7-axis humanoid robotic arms serve as one of the core execution components of its embodied intelligence platform. The series features high-precision force control across all joints, with a torque control resolution of 0.02 N·m, end-effector contact force accuracy of 0.1 N, and a force control bandwidth of ≥100 Hz. Integrated with a local AI server and natively supporting ROS 2, the series demonstrates the evolution of robotic arms from conventional tools into intelligent agents.
At the application level, Huayan Robotics showcased its collaborative welding robot with an extended 1.8-meter reach. Combined with AI-based programming-free welding technology, the solution enables rapid positioning, autonomous weld seam recognition, and real-time trajectory correction, offering greater efficiency when welding large and complex workpieces.
Its integrated 2.5D vision solution further connects the entire workflow from visual perception to robotic execution. Key capabilities include full-plane calibration, spatial information acquisition, rapid redeployment of application solutions across different scenarios, and compatibility with large AI models, helping lower the barriers to deploying robotic solutions in complex industrial environments.
For CNC machine tending, Huayan's collaborative robots combine high speed, high precision, high IP protection ratings, and flexible deployment options to help improve machining productivity.
In addition, Huayan Robotics presented a range of other solutions at ROBOTWORLD 2026, including:
AI-powered palletizing solution: An integrated robotic palletizing solution featuring a maximum payload of 65 kg and high-speed palletizing and material handling throughput of 8–13 cycles per minute.
High-precision motion platforms: Designed for demanding applications across a wide range of industries, including life sciences, medical equipment, machine vision inspection, semiconductor manufacturing, and laser processing.
3D scanning and inspection application: Developed jointly with partner Shining 3D, demonstrating the integration of robotic automation with advanced 3D scanning and inspection technologies.
Expanding Its Global Network of Partnerships
As an important international platform for Korea's robotics industry, ROBOTWORLD attracted manufacturers, system integrators, and industry partners from South Korea, Japan, and beyond. Throughout the exhibition, visitors engaged with Huayan Robotics to explore the potential of collaborative robots in welding, CNC machine tending, palletizing, vision inspection, and embodied intelligence applications.
Huayan Robotics remains committed to working closely with global partners to advance innovation and accelerate the adoption of intelligent manufacturing technologies.
Looking ahead, Huayan Robotics will continue to expand its global presence and strengthen its international partnerships. By deepening collaboration with customers and partners worldwide, the company aims to bring more advanced robotic technologies and solutions to diverse industrial applications, supporting the intelligent transformation of manufacturing across global markets.
