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

On October 26, centered on the AI WAVE goal of "getting robots truly on the job," AgiBot launched the safety-standard heavy-load embodied robot Genie G2 Max. Aimed at scenarios such as depalletizing and palletizing, material transfer, and production-line feeding, the product translates the demands of real-world scenarios for strength, precision, and continuous operation into a single concrete product, driving the deployment of AgiBot's full-stack AI capabilities on production lines and converting technical strength into real productivity. The industrial handling sector has long faced an unsolvable trade-off: heavy-load equipment cannot do fine work, and precision equipment cannot bear heavy weights. To break this industry dilemma, AgiBot officially released the third installment of AI WAVE—the safety-standard heavy-load embodied robot Genie G2 Max—achieving both heavy-load strength and sub-millimeter precision work. It 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-load embodied robot to achieve long-range, multi-task operation. "Embodied intelligence is not a demo in the lab; its value must be tested on real production lines," said Yao Maoqing, co-founder, co-president, and president of the Embodied Business System of 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 collaborate with production-line equipment and upstream and downstream partners. AgiBot hopes to bring its accumulated technology to the production floor, driving embodied intelligence from single-point demonstrations to full-process collaboration and truly unleashing the productivity of embodied intelligence. Genie G2 Max will also appear at the 2026 AgiBot Innovation Day (AGIBOT INNOVATION DAY 2026) on October 29, where it will visually demonstrate the combined strength of heavy-load, fine manipulation, and all-weather stable operation. 01/ Both heavy-load and precision: one robot completes the full pick, move, and place process In tasks such as bin transfer, production-line feeding, and picking and placing heavy components, 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 fine pick-and-place capability and continuously complete repetitive tasks. To this end, G2 Max integrates heavy-load handling, fine manipulation, and continuous operation capabilities, linking the full pick, move, and place process through the same device to meet the needs of various materials and processes on industrial sites. With a dual-arm payload capacity of 40 kg, G2 Max covers the handling needs of more than 95% of industrial bins and components on the market. But 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 "able to move it but unable to place it accurately." Relying on 7-DOF force-controlled dual arms, combined with vision guidance and dual-arm force control technology, G2 Max is compatible with a wide variety of industrial materials such as cardboard boxes, European-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 loading, box film covering, and empty box recovery, realizing mixed-line operation of multiple categories of materials. 02/ Flexible operation across the whole area: no production-line modification needed, improving space efficiency The biggest obstacle for many factories in advancing automation is the high cost of production-line and site modification. Once heavy-load equipment enters the site, workstations must be torn down and rebuilt and large movement spaces reserved, keeping the deployment threshold high. G2 Max takes "compatibility with existing production lines" as a core design goal: a vertical working range of 0.1 m to 2.5 m and a horizontal working coverage of 1.2 m; equipped with a high-precision waist pitch joint, it can actively tilt to adjust its body posture and achieve single-side depalletizing and palletizing. Pallets can be placed directly against the wall, with no need to reserve 1.5 meters of space behind for maneuvering, greatly freeing up factory floor area. Low-position picking and high-position palletizing are completed by one machine, without additional lifts or auxiliary tooling. This set of spatial adaptability capabilities has already been applied in the warehousing scenarios of leading e-commerce companies. G2 Max can seamlessly connect to the automated storage and retrieval system's "goods-to-person" system, working with the existing robot fleet to complete the full process of full-box depalletizing and warehousing and empty-bin palletizing and recovery. Its overall operation success rate exceeds 99%, and it can depalletize 80 boxes and palletize 75 boxes per hour, completing automation upgrades directly within the original warehouse layout. 03/ "Robots building robots": stably keeping up with the production line tempo On the Qiyuan T1 production line, G2 Max is undertaking a "robots building robots" task. As the "precision handler" of 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 workstation. These components are the parts of a robot with the highest precision requirements; even a slight bump on 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 unloading—laborious and error-prone. After G2 Max took up the post, it carries boxes with both arms and places them with sub-millimeter precision throughout, completing picking, moving, and delivery in one step—using heavy-load and precision handling capabilities to support the birth of another robot. Faced with the production line's tempo 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 workstation must be perfectly coordinated; if it is late, downstream workstations start waiting idle. G2 Max's operation takt is very stable, and 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 of dual-battery hot swapping plus autonomous recharging, achieving 7×24-hour uninterrupted operation and filling the shortfall in human night shifts. At the same time, designed according to industrial safety standards, it builds 360° multimodal perception protection, integrating 2D/3D LiDAR, ultrasonic sensors, chassis safety bumpers, and physical emergency stops, enabling safe operation even in complex industrial environments. Beyond hardware, G2 Max natively supports 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, completing on-site adaptation at day-level speed and greatly shortening project deployment cycles. Currently, G2 Max has been deployed and operating on multiple production lines and continues to optimize its operating capabilities through collaboration 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, bringing embodied intelligence truly into factories and warehouses and converting the product capability of "vast strength, ceaseless agility" into the productivity of the real economy.
