Recently, Jieka Robot Engineer’s “training” of humanoid dual arm robots received visits from nearly 30 mainstream media outlets, including People’s Daily, Xinhua News Agency, China Central Radio and Television, Guangming Daily, Qiushi Magazine, and Economic Daily, highlighting the effectiveness of high-quality development.

With a decade of perseverance in the spirit of innovation, Jieka Robotics has planned and completed four stages of brand construction: productization, scenarioization, marketization, and scaling. While building core competitiveness, it has expanded brand added value and grown into a global robot brand with comparable soft and hard capabilities.

Product innovation in progress

In recent years, new products have been continuously introduced for Jieka robots. From the birth of the first product, the Jieka Xiaozhu series collaborative robot, to the successive emergence of perception, visual, desktop, and high protection systems in recent years, and to the expansion of the JAKA Zu 20 and JAKA S series family matrix, as well as the high attention paid to the humanoid dual arm robot, Jieka’s product innovation rhythm and progress have always been at the forefront of the industry.

One innovation is strength, and continuous innovation is also an ability. Over the past decade of continuous innovation, it is precisely the Jieka collaborative robot that continuously adapts to market demand, expands product matrix, and enhances product performance.

The currently popular humanoid robots are a new direction that Jieka robots are exploring. Jieka robots recently showed videos of humanoid robots, indicating that they are moving towards the direction of humanoid robots. Since 2024, the popularity of the humanoid robot market has increased. Lide Research Institute predicts that the market size of humanoid robots is expected to reach 10.471 billion yuan by 2026 and 119.246 billion yuan by 2030.

 

The engineer’s “training” of a humanoid dual arm robot has attracted the attention of many journalists. Currently, the Jieka mechanical arm form product has been delivered to the customer’s site, and its multiple core components share similarities with humanoid robots, which are considered the prototype of humanoid robots.

In addition to humanoid robots, Jieka robots also have impressive performance in the form of composite robots. Recently, the Shanghai Municipal Administration for Market Regulation, in conjunction with the Shanghai Municipal Commission of Economy and Information Technology, announced the first prize list of key product quality research achievements in Shanghai in 2023. Jieka Robot has once again won this honor for its lightweight quality research project in the multi scenario application of mobile composite robots.

 

Both humanoid robots and composite robots are new paradigms for high-quality development in multiple industry scenarios. For example, in industrial scenarios, factories and production lines in fields such as textiles, automotive parts, 3C consumer electronics, healthcare, logistics, and fast-moving consumer goods have high market demand for composite robots. However, the challenges of heavy volume, difficult deployment, range difference, and high learning threshold of composite robots have always plagued application enterprises, resulting in low overall market acceptance.

The Jieka robot has achieved a weight of 95kg, a 10 hour endurance, a 50mm obstacle avoidance distance, and a collision force of no more than 50N through multiple mass breakthroughs. The JAKA mobile composite robot has reached an international leading level in terms of application safety, intelligence, and stable operation. Successfully solved multiple technical difficulties and applied them to internationally renowned enterprises such as Shanghai Electric, Jiangsu Bigao, and Xinxiang Chemical Fiber.

This latest product has three typical features:

(1) Adopting a lightweight design for the body. Optimize mechanical structure design, circuit design, and energy management system, strictly select low-power devices, increase product mechanical strength by 15%, circuit stability by 20%, and energy utilization efficiency by 10% to 15%, which can achieve low energy consumption and long endurance operation.

(2) Innovation of secure interaction systems. By integrating multiple sensors with SLAM navigation technology, a visual protection system and collision detection system are provided, and an error alarm mechanism is set up to ensure the smooth and timely obstacle avoidance of robots in the factory.

(3) Software and hardware architecture optimization. Using JAKA’s self-developed graphical programming app, it reduces the threshold for users to learn and use, and provides a “minimalist” operating experience. By utilizing a comprehensive secondary development interface, expandable fixtures, and modular structures, the application potential of robots can be unleashed, achieving extremely complex scenarios in various industries.

From 0 to N, the product strength continues to improve

At present, Jieka Robotics has mastered the autonomous and complete core technology system of robots, which is also the confidence for Jieka Robotics to push new iterations from 0 to N. A market-oriented efficient R&D system, lean management mechanism, and talent development are the supporting forces for the long-term growth of Jieka robots.

For example, humanoid robots and composite robots actually have technical similarities with the collaborative robotic arm products that Jieka robots have been persistently developing. Robots need to have reliability, safety, intelligence, and consistency and stability in product production quality in order to better serve industrial scenarios. Collaborative robots, as the foundation of multiple derivative forms of robots, only with strong performance can they serve as the arm of humanoid robots and composite robots, thereby enabling new forms of robots to have strong operational capabilities and help them better apply in various scenarios.

Continuously improving the product strength of collaborative robots is an important reason why Jieka robots can achieve continuous iteration and expand their categories. In recent years, Jieka Robotics has not only built three major platforms: modular hardware platform, algorithm+OTA cloud system platform, and cutting-edge technology research and development, but also successfully mastered five core technology systems, including intelligent modular joints, high-quality motion control, new demonstration and rapid deployment, human-machine intelligent integration and security cooperation, intelligent production line and integration. It has connected the entire chain of “research and development+production+service”, improved comprehensive strength from multiple dimensions, built long-term competitive advantages and sustained growth capabilities for enterprises, and become a powerful core for cultivating their own new quality productivity.

From the development process of JAKA mobile composite robot application, it can be seen that the technology of Jieka robot has the possibility of reuse and continuous iterative optimization. In terms of products, with the help of key quality technologies, full process quality management methods, and digital quality means, the card saving robot continuously achieves breakthroughs.

It is reported that in this research project, the Jieka Robot adopts the “JQMS” Jieka Quality Management System, which incorporates the ultimate detail management of products into the entire product manufacturing process. Compared with traditional serial management methods, the Jieka Robot is based on the ISO 9001 quality management system, allowing for comprehensive collaboration among research and development quality management systems, production quality management systems, supply chain quality management systems, business support quality management systems, and after-sales service quality management systems, forming a refined “JQMS” (JAKA Quality Management System) quality management model.

At the same time, Jieka Robotics emphasizes industry co creation, selecting the best from the best, collaborating with top suppliers to select key components, and ensuring excellent product performance and reliability with a rigorous supply chain supervision system and high-end standards. It also optimizes human-machine collaborative assembly technology and processes, integrating robot components such as motors and reducers through robot assembly.

Advanced production processes and quality management systems enable robots to go through precise process control, strict quality control and inspection from raw material selection, design and engineering verification, processing and manufacturing to overall assembly, ensuring that every JAKA mobile composite machine meets corresponding standards and specifications.

 

Wu Wei, Chief Quality Officer of Jieka Robotics, introduced that the award-winning quality research project not only demonstrated JAKA’s high-quality breakthrough in product technology, but also demonstrated the significant advantages of the “JQMS” Jieka quality management system. “This comprehensive quality management system, which connects multiple dimensions such as research and development, production, supply chain, and service, allows us to go beyond the limitations of traditional linear quality management models and greatly improve product applicability, safety, reliability, durability, and maintainability. Currently, the award-winning products have penetrated the production lines of well-known domestic enterprises and entered the markets of developed countries.” Wu Wei introduced.

Customer centered innovation

In addition to continuously improving product strength, in terms of customer strategy, Jieka Robotics also chooses to carry out typical cooperation with top industry enterprises in multi-mode collaboration and innovation, forming a demonstration effect with the successful experience of top customers, and promoting its long-term stable development.

For example, a leading automotive lighting company introduced a card saving robot screw locking workstation, which achieved a nearly three fold increase in the number of car light assemblies completed daily compared to manual operations. In the end, the workstation successfully replicated nearly a thousand sets in the industry. At the same time, with the starting point of “coming from the industry and serving the industry”, Jieka Robot has also created a high-level knowledge training platform for the industry – Jieka Academy.

Taking a leading precision manufacturing enterprise as an example, fully promoting the development of “two modernizations” is one of the development strategies of the enterprise. While empowering its smart factory construction with products, Jieka Robotics has developed a professional and systematic training course for it, from intelligent manufacturing concepts to practice, from knowledge learning to technical practice, aiming to help customers accelerate the speed and efficiency of promoting the development of “two modernizations”.

High quality top customers are a key factor in driving the management level of upstream and downstream enterprises in the industrial chain. For the past decade, Jieka Robotics has persisted in doing difficult and correct things, refused price competition, continued to seek increment from the value dimension, established trust in top brands and high competitive barriers, focused on exploring industries such as automobiles, 3C electronics, precision machining, and extended typical applications to business, education, and other fields, continuously expanded consumer service application scenarios, opened up new growth quadrants, and empowered various industries to optimize production factor allocation structure, improve innovation capabilities, and total factor productivity with innovative achievements and technologies.

For example, in the face of the growth pole of overseas markets, Jieka Robotics keenly captures the differences in industries, technologies, and talents at home and abroad. Through differentiated product strategies, localized operation systems, and employment thinking, it continuously integrates into the local market ecology and supply chain system. Currently, it has covered over 100 countries and regions overseas, and in the past three years, its overseas scale has doubled, and its technical experience has been fed back to the domestic market.

Conclusion and Future

In addition to optimizing the performance and quality improvement of the robot body, the card saving robot also follows the trend of digital development, pays attention to the data interaction between the robot and the quality system, develops an OTA (Over The Air) data acquisition and “cloud edge end” dynamic intelligent analysis and monitoring platform, integrates intelligent algorithms, edge computing, 5G real-time communication and other cutting-edge technologies, realizes remote management, monitoring and analysis of product quality data, and ensures long-term operation and maintenance of the robot service factory.

In terms of sustainable growth in the future, the value symbiosis system of Jieka robots provides a huge space for imagination. From the perspective of the industrial chain, Jieka Robotics has built a complete collaborative robot resource sharing platform that covers “ontology, perception, and execution”. It has attracted over 100 high-quality partners worldwide and provides users with convenient, practical, and diversified solution choices.
