- Qiyuan says its 5,000th personal robot has completed production.
- Management reports daily capacity of more than 200 robots.
Production milestone
Qiyuan Robotics said on October 25 that its 5,000th personal robot had rolled off the production line, according to a same-day IT Home report citing the company's official WeChat account. The announcement follows the September 20 launch of its Q1 and T1 personal robots.
The company presents the milestone as a sign that its ability to manufacture and deliver robots at scale is taking shape. The figure concerns robots produced; it does not establish how many customers have received units.
Manufacturing changes
Co-president and central research and development president Gao Quanzhong said Qiyuan can now complete one robot every 2.5 minutes. He put daily production capacity at more than 200 units, up from just over 10 previously.
Qiyuan also said it has worked with suppliers to establish a raw-material storage system, introduced a semi-automated assembly line and built an end-to-end manufacturing IT system for process traceability. These are company-reported production capabilities, rather than independently audited measures of sales or demand.
