Schaeffler's embodied-intelligence robot digital factory has officially opened in Taicang. Covering approximately 7,500 square meters, it integrates intelligent assembly lines, a scenario-based training and data collection center, a digital twin platform, and a computing power center. The core intelligent assembly line was independently designed by Schaeffler and features five workstations, where six humanoid robots work collaboratively to complete the entire process of tote handling, parts sorting and picking, press-fitting and screw assembly, functional testing, labeling, and packaging. It produces joint module components, including linear and rotary joints, marking the official start of mass production for such components. Schaeffler said it won new orders from two Chinese customers in the third quarter of 2026, raising its total order volume in the humanoid robot field to 400 million euros.
