AgiBot Releases Safety-Standard Heavy-Load Embodied Robot Genie G2 Max

On the front lines of industrial manufacturing and warehousing logistics, automation equipment has long faced a dilemma: heavy-duty robotic arms with great strength tend to move coarsely and cannot handle fine work, while lightweight equipment capable of precision assembly cannot lift heavy material boxes. Today, AgiBot released the safety-grade heavy-duty embodied robot "Genie G2 Max," attempting to break down this barrier by "loading" a dual-arm rated payload capacity of 40 kilograms and sub-millimeter repeat positioning accuracy into the same body. "Embodied intelligence is not a demo in the laboratory; its value must be tested on real production lines," said Yao Maoqing, co-founder, co-president, and president of the embodied business system at AgiBot, during the G2 Max launch livestream. Industrial scenarios impose stringent requirements on robots: they must be able to carry heavy objects and place workpieces accurately, adapt to the existing layout of old factories, and be able to collaborate with production line equipment and upstream and downstream partners. Reporters learned that carrying heavy objects is easy, but "carrying heavy objects while also placing them accurately" is the technical difficulty. In industrial material box transfer, heavy component picking and placing, and other links, G2 Max uses 7-degree-of-freedom force-controlled dual arms, combined with visual guidance and force control technology, and can autonomously adapt to cardboard boxes, plastic turnover boxes, and various irregular materials, avoiding the cumbersome repeated calibration of traditional automated assembly lines. In mixed-material testing on daily chemical fast-moving consumer goods production lines, faced with boxes of uneven size and weight, the equipment can continuously complete the entire process of depalletizing, box opening and loading, box film covering, and empty box recovery. In addition to its hands-on capabilities, the cramped spaces of old factories are also a practical problem encountered by heavy automation equipment. In the past, when heavy-duty equipment entered a site, it often required clearing a rotation radius and detour space of several meters. G2 Max can "actively" tilt its body forward for operation by adding a high-precision waist pitch joint, and can complete single-side depalletizing and palletizing even when goods are placed directly against the wall, without the need to reserve a passage behind, with the vertical operation range covering height differences from 0.1 meters to 2.5 meters. In actual applications in e-commerce warehousing, the equipment can complete depalletizing of 80 boxes and palletizing of 75 boxes per hour, and is directly embedded into the original "goods-to-person" warehousing system. Moreover, G2 Max also takes on the task of "robots building robots." On the AgiBot Qiyuan T1 joint assembly line, high-precision shoulder joint housings, hip joint assemblies, and other components previously mostly relied on manual handcart transport, and a slight bump during jolting could damage precision mounting surfaces. At present, under a production takt time of one unit rolling off the line every 2.5 minutes, the robot smoothly delivers heavy joint modules to the final assembly station, and the operation takt remains stable. Last week, AgiBot also released the embodied intelligence operation platform Genie Studio 2.0. The platform covers the full lifecycle of "collection-training-testing-inference-programming-management," connecting the chain for robots from model capabilities to going on duty in the workshop. G2 Max natively adapts to the Genie Studio 2.0 embodied operation platform. Relying on the platform's capabilities, customers can quickly complete task orchestration, simulation verification, and cluster operations and maintenance, complete on-site adaptation at day-level speed, and greatly shorten the project deployment cycle. It is disclosed that G2 Max has already been deployed and operating on multiple production lines, and continues to optimize its operating capabilities in collaboration with existing industrial equipment and production processes.
