AGIBOT deploys on factory line

- AGIBOT and Longcheer Technology said on April 15 that multiple Genie G2 humanoid robots are now working on a live tablet production line at Longcheer’s factory in Nanchang, China. - AGIBOT said the robots ran an eight-hour live production test on April 14 with 2,283 tasks completed at 100% success, handling about 310 tablets an hour. - The companies say deployments could reach 100 robots by the third quarter of 2026, moving humanoids from demos toward repeatable factory work.

AGIBOT and Longcheer Technology said multiple Genie G2 humanoid robots are now working on a live tablet production line at Longcheer’s factory in Nanchang, China. (agibot.com) (tmcnet.com) The companies said the robots are operating at a multimedia integrated testing station, where finished tablets are loaded into fixtures, tested, and sorted by result on an active manufacturing line. (tmcnet.com) (dev.to) AGIBOT said it ran an eight-hour live production demonstration on April 14, 2026, and completed 2,283 tasks with zero errors and a reported 100% success rate. (163.com) (msn.cn) In plain terms, this job is less about walking around a warehouse and more about repeating a small, precise motion thousands of times without drifting out of position. The robot has to pick up a tablet, place it accurately into a test jig, and move it back out after inspection. (dev.to) (163.com) AGIBOT said each cycle takes 18 to 20 seconds and the system can process about 310 products an hour. It also said the robots exchange data with the factory’s manufacturing execution system and test equipment in real time. (163.com) The company framed the deployment as a factory-scale manufacturing use case, not a lab pilot. AGIBOT executive Yao Maoqing said multiple G2 units are already running stably on the line. (163.com) (tmcnet.com) AGIBOT also said the setup can switch between tablet models without custom tooling, with line calibration in as little as 15 minutes and retraining for changeovers in under four hours. The company said equipment reuse can reach 95%. (163.com) For factory operators, that pitch is about flexibility: a humanoid-shaped machine that can take over a human workstation without rebuilding the whole line around a fixed industrial arm. AGIBOT said the same deployment model could be copied into automotive, semiconductor, and energy plants. (tmcnet.com) (163.com) The company said deployments are scheduled to expand to 100 robots by the third quarter of 2026. If that happens, the Nanchang tablet line will look less like a one-off demo and more like a test of whether humanoids can hold a real factory job. (163.com)
