en.Wedoany.com Report, On March 26, Kunwei (Beijing) Technology Co., Ltd. (Kunwei Technology) announced the completion of a 100 million yuan B+ round of financing. This round was jointly invested by Jingguorui, BOC Asset Management, E-Town Capital, Cornerstone Capital, and TCL, with existing shareholder Shenzhen Capital Group continuing to participate. The funds will be used for production capacity construction, high-precision force/torque sensor R&D, and global market expansion.
With the advancement of mass production for humanoid robot technology products like Tesla's Optimus and Unitree's G1, force/torque sensors, as core components, are ushering in development opportunities. IDC predicts that global humanoid robot shipments will reach approximately 18,000 units in 2025, a year-on-year increase of 508%, with Chinese manufacturers leading in technology. Morgan Stanley estimates that humanoid robot sales in China will reach 262,000 units by 2030, increasing to 2.6 million units by 2035. The industry believes 2026 is a critical period for mass production, and demand for six-axis force sensors will see significant growth.
Founded in 2018, Kunwei Technology's core team possesses over 20 years of experience in force/torque perception. The company has built its own six-axis combined loading calibration laboratory, achieving independent and controllable technology. As a main drafting unit, the company helped establish the national standard GB/T 43199-2023, filling the gap in domestic testing specifications for robot multi-axis force/torque sensors.
Addressing the needs of humanoid robots, Kunwei Technology launched the HRS series of six-axis force sensors, specifically designed for joints like wrists and ankles. They feature a small size, large measurement range, repeatability accuracy better than 0.1% FS, and accuracy better than 0.5% FS. The company has also expanded into joint torque sensors, delivering over a hundred product variants since 2023, and will enter the batch delivery phase starting in 2026.
In the industrial automation field, Kunwei Technology provides one-dimensional force sensors and precision weighing sensors, applied in 3C electronics, automotive parts, and medical device manufacturing. In the sports and health field, the company offers miniaturized multi-axis force perception products for sports training and rehabilitation medicine.
Kunwei Technology collaborates with domestic humanoid robot companies such as UBTECH, Galaxy General, Zhiyuan, and Xinghai Tu, achieving batch supply. Facing industry delivery challenges, the company completed an order for 500 six-axis force sensors within 3 weeks, demonstrating its mass production capability.
Previously, Kunwei Technology received investments from industrial capital such as Xiaomi Industrial Investment, Inovance Industrial Investment, Sanhua Intelligent Controls, and institutions including Shenzhen Capital Group and Hillhouse Capital. Following this round of financing, the company will continue to increase R&D investment, expand production capacity, deepen its global layout, and promote the development of domestic force/torque sensor technology.
