What Zolix does
Zolix Instruments (北京卓立汉光仪器有限公司) is a Beijing-headquartered designer and manufacturer of opto-electromechanical instruments founded in 1999, operating as a group company within the publicly listed 必创科技 (BeeTech, SSE: 300667) corporate ecosystem. The company produces scientific analysis instruments — Raman spectrometers (Finder, RTS series), steady-state and time-resolved fluorescence spectrometers (OmniFluo series), Fourier transform infrared spectrometers, and atomic absorption spectrophotometers — alongside precision motion control products (motorized and piezoelectric stages, six-DOF parallel robots, fiber-coupling stages) and vibration isolation platforms (air-floating and active isolation systems). Integrated combination systems such as Raman-optical tweezers, Raman-LIBS, Raman-SEM, and electrochemical TERS represent notable proprietary architectures, and the company has launched complementary products including streak cameras, ICCD cameras, femtosecond and supercontinuum lasers, hyperspectral imaging cameras, and semiconductor wafer testing systems.
The company serves a dual market of Chinese scientific research institutions (universities, national labs, research institutes conducting materials science, chemistry, physics, and bioscience research) and industrial customers in semiconductor fabrication, advanced manufacturing, solar cell R&D, automotive electronics, and security/quality control. Sales are executed through five direct sales branches in major Chinese cities (Beijing HQ, Shanghai, Shenzhen, Chengdu, Xi'an), supported by an exclusive international distributor network spanning Taiwan, Japan, Korea, India, Germany, Italy, France, Spain, UK, Ireland, Poland, and Australia, plus a proprietary online store (卓立商城). Products are quote-based capital equipment with multi-year procurement cycles; pricing is not publicly disclosed.
Revenue is generated primarily through hardware sales across four streams: scientific analysis instruments, industrial opto-mechanical products, photovoltaic test systems, and aftermarket services. The company holds ISO9001 certification (first in its domestic industry, 2005), CNAS laboratory accreditation, National High-Tech Enterprise status (renewed 2010 and 2016), Beijing Enterprise Technology Center recognition, and the National Technical Invention Award (Second Class), reflecting regulatory and technical credibility anchored in 25+ years of continuous operation.
