Agibot Releases Heavy-Load Embodied Robot Genie G2 Max, Dual-Arm Peak Payload 50kg
Agibot has launched the safety-standard heavy-load embodied robot Genie G2 Max, with a single-arm payload of 20kg, a dual-arm rated payload of 40kg, and a peak of up to 50kg. Its arm repeat positioning accuracy is ≤±0.5mm, and it targets scenarios such as depalletizing and palletizing, material transfer, and production line feeding. The product is designed to be compatible with existing production lines, with a vertical working range of 0.1m to 2.5m. It supports single-side depalletizing and palletizing and pallet placement against walls, and features dual-battery hot swapping and autonomous recharging to support 7×24-hour operation. On the Qiyuan T1 production line, the G2 Max is responsible for transporting joint components, matching the takt time of one unit rolling off the line every 2.5 minutes, and natively adapts to the Genie Studio 2.0 embodied operation platform.

From announcing the official launch of its personal robot to the 5,000th robot rolling off the line took just one month, with one robot coming off the line every 2.5 minutes and daily capacity rising from just over 10 units previously to more than 200 units... Behind the stable and efficient production line for Qiyuan personal robots is a team of robots. Today, AgiBot launched the safety-compliant heavy-duty embodied robot Genie G2 Max. The product is designed for scenarios such as depalletizing and palletizing, material transfer, and production line feeding, and can achieve 24/7 uninterrupted operation. Combining heavy load with precision, a single robot completes the entire pick, move, and place process. In tasks such as bin transfer, production line feeding, and heavy component picking and placing, robots need to simultaneously meet three requirements: heavy objects must be moved stably, materials must be placed accurately, and operations must keep up with multi-shift production. Especially under heavy-load conditions, robots still need to maintain precise pick-and-place capabilities and continuously complete repetitive tasks. The Genie G2 Max has a single-arm payload of 20 kg, a dual-arm rated payload of 40 kg, a dual-arm peak payload of up to 50 kg, and arm repeat positioning accuracy of ≤±0.5 mm, making it the industry's first heavy-duty embodied robot to achieve long-range, multi-task operation. At the 2026 AgiBot Innovation Day held this Thursday, the Genie G2 Max will demonstrate on site the integrated strength of heavy load, precision operation, and all-weather stable operation. The G2 Max does not simply pursue the ceiling of load parameters; instead, it invests substantial engineering capability in force control and vision fusion solutions to solve the long-standing problem of "being able to move it but not place it accurately." Relying on 7-DOF force-controlled dual arms, combined with vision guidance + dual-arm force control technology, the G2 Max can handle a wide variety of industrial materials such as cardboard boxes, Euro-standard turnover boxes, and irregular components without the need for extensive re-teaching and calibration. In the mixed-line incoming material scenario of a leading domestic daily chemical FMCG production line, faced with material boxes of varying sizes and weights, the robot achieved a material recognition rate of 100%, smoothly completing the full long-process workflow of depalletizing, box opening and feeding, box film covering, and empty box recovery, enabling mixed-line operation of multiple categories of materials. Flexible operation across the entire area, with no need to modify the production line and improved space efficiency. The biggest obstacle for many factories in promoting automation is the high cost of production line and site modification. Once heavy-duty equipment enters the site, workstations must be torn down and rebuilt, and large areas of movement space must be reserved, keeping the threshold for deployment high. The G2 Max takes "compatibility with existing production lines" as its core design goal: a vertical working range of 0.1 m to 2.5 m and horizontal working coverage of 1.2 m; equipped with a high-precision waist pitch joint, it can actively tilt the body posture to achieve single-side depalletizing and palletizing. Pallets can be placed directly against the wall, with no need to reserve 1.5 meters of bypass working space behind them, greatly freeing up factory floor area. Low-position picking and high-position palletizing are completed by one machine, without the need for additional lifting or auxiliary tooling. This set of spatial adaptability capabilities has already been applied in leading e-commerce warehousing scenarios. G2 Max can seamlessly connect with the automated storage and retrieval system's "goods-to-person" setup, working alongside the existing robot fleet to complete the full workflow of depalletizing full cases for inbound storage and palletizing empty bins for recycling. Its overall operation success rate exceeds 99%, and it can depalletize 80 cases and palletize 75 cases per hour, enabling automation upgrades directly within the existing warehouse layout. "Robots building robots," steadily keeping pace with the production line takt time. On the Qiyuan T1 production line, G2 Max is taking on a "robots building robots" task. As the "precision handler" on the joint assembly line, it is responsible for accurately delivering finished limb joint components such as shoulder joint housings and hip joint assemblies from the material stacking area to the final assembly stations. These components are the parts of a robot with the highest precision requirements; even a slight bump to the mounting surface can affect the service life of the joint module. In the past, this relied entirely on manual box stacking, cart pushing, and loading and unloading—strenuous and error-prone. After G2 Max was deployed, it carries boxes with both arms and places them with sub-millimeter precision throughout the process, completing pickup, movement, and delivery in one go—using its heavy-load and precision-handling capabilities to support the birth of another robot. Faced with the production line's takt requirement of rolling one Qiyuan T1 off the line every 2.5 minutes, G2 Max has achieved stable matching. Zhou Ye, factory director of the Huguang Co., Ltd. robot manufacturing plant, said: "A 2.5-minute takt means the material supply rhythm for the entire joint assembly station must be perfectly coordinated; if it is late, downstream stations begin to sit idle. G2 Max's operating takt is very stable—its all-day takt curve is almost a straight line." The value of robots also includes withstanding the heavy physical pressure of night shifts. To this end, G2 Max is equipped with a multi-pronged energy replenishment solution featuring dual-battery hot swapping plus autonomous recharging, enabling uninterrupted 7×24-hour operation and filling the gap in human night-shift capacity. At the same time, it is designed in accordance with industrial safety standards, building 360° multimodal perception and protection that integrates 2D/3D LiDAR, ultrasonic sensors, chassis safety bumpers, and physical emergency stops, so it can operate safely even in complex industrial environments. Beyond hardware, G2 Max natively supports the Genie Studio 2.0 embodied operation platform. Leveraging the platform's capabilities, customers can quickly complete task orchestration, simulation validation, and cluster operations and maintenance, achieving on-site adaptation within days and greatly shortening project deployment cycles. Currently, G2 Max has been deployed and is operating on multiple production lines, and it continues to optimize its operating capabilities through coordination with existing industrial equipment and production processes. In the future, AgiBot will continue to advance the iteration and large-scale replication of heavy-load embodied robot solutions, enabling embodied intelligence to truly enter factories and warehouses and transforming the product capability of "immense power, ceaseless agility" into productivity for the real economy.
