What Juwei Technology does

Juwei Technology (具微科技 / MICBOT) is a Hangzhou-based robotics company founded in 2025 that designs and manufactures wheeled-legged (轮足融合) embodied robots for industrial deployment in extreme and hazardous environments. The company positions itself as a leader in comprehensive mobile intelligent solutions (全域移动智能解决方案), with a product portfolio spanning the industrial-grade MOVENEW P-series (P1, P2) and the flagship-grade MOVENEW T1, plus the recently launched MOVENEW-P1-ExR, the world's first explosion-proof wheeled-legged robot. Core technology includes a proprietary bionic skeleton algorithm, wheeled-legged fusion motion control, and multi-modal intelligent perception, with flagship specifications of 400kg maximum load, 12-hour endurance, and an operating temperature range of -40°C to 85°C.

The company serves enterprise customers in industrial inspection, fire emergency response, public security, petroleum and petrochemical, commercial surveying, and logistics, targeting China's estimated 20 million special workplaces as its addressable market. Its go-to-market is direct enterprise B2B sales with quote-based pricing and multi-year contracts, evidenced by dedicated procurement and order CTAs on the corporate website. Strategic customer engagements include a comprehensive partnership with ShenHuo Group (mining), exploratory engagement with Fortescue Metals Group (Australia), and engagement with China Aluminum Baotou Aluminum (metallurgy). Revenue mechanics center on hardware robot sales complemented by full-scenario deployment solutions, with 2025 expected order fulfillment of approximately 110 million yuan against a current backlog exceeding 500 million yuan, and 2026 projected shipments above 1,000 units.

Juwei Technology is privately held and has closed four Series A rounds within approximately two months in 2026, totaling several hundred million yuan. The investor base combines state-owned capital (Binzhou State Investment), industrial strategics (Weiqiao Group, BinHua Co., Baotou Aluminum, Zhengqiang Co.), and venture investors (Luxin Venture Capital, Denuo Capital, Yilian Technology, Jiansu Capital). Capital is earmarked for R&D, production capacity expansion, team buildout, and ecosystem construction across extreme-environment robotics applications.

Core offering

Juwei Technology designs, manufactures, and sells industrial wheeled-legged (轮足融合) quadruped robots under the MOVENEW brand for extreme-environment and hazardous-workplace applications. Core hardware products include the industry-grade MOVENEW P1 (400kg payload, 12-hour endurance, -40°C to 85°C range), MOVENEW P2 (with bionic skeleton algorithms and explosion-proof certification), flagship MOVENEW T1, and MOVENEW P1 ExR (world's first explosion-proof wheeled-foot embodied robot), sold to enterprise customers in petrochemical, mining, fire safety, public security, surveying, and logistics sectors.

Product overview

Juwei Technology (MICBOT) is a全域移动智能解决方案领导者 (leader in comprehensive mobile intelligent solutions), specializing in wheeled-foot robots for industrial applications. The product portfolio consists of industry-level P-series robots (MOVENEW P1, MOVENNEW P2) and flagship-level T-series (MOVENEW T1). MOVENEW P1 features 400KG maximum load and 12-hour endurance for extreme environments (-40°C to 85°C). MOVENNEW P2 offers explosion-proof certification with bio-inspired skeletal algorithms and dynamic balance. MOVENNEW T1 represents the flagship tier with superior load capacity and full-terrain autonomous navigation. The company recently launched MOVENNEW P1 ExR as the world's first explosion-proof wheeled-foot embodied robot. Applications span industrial inspection, fire safety, public security, petroleum and petrochemical, commercial surveying, and logistics.

Direct peers

• ANYbotics: Swiss-based leader in industrial inspection quadruped robots. ANYbotics pioneered the autonomous industrial robot inspection use case (e.g., ANYmal X explosion-proof variant) that Juwei targets, and represents the most credible international benchmark for Juwei's go-to-market and product positioning.
• DeepRobotics (云深处科技): Hangzhou-based quadruped robot maker and one of Juwei's closest geographic and product competitors. DeepRobotics targets similar industrial inspection, fire safety, and security applications, making it a direct head-to-head rival in the Chinese market.
• Unitree Robotics (宇树科技): China's leading quadruped robot manufacturer and most direct competitor. Both companies build wheeled-legged/quadruped platforms for industrial and commercial applications, compete for similar B2B customers, and share Chinese supply chain and talent pools. Unitree's broader product portfolio and deeper funding pose a significant competitive threat.

Emerging players

• Fourier Intelligence: Shanghai-based robotics company with growing quadruped and rehabilitation robotics portfolio. Competes in the Chinese embodied robotics market and overlaps with Juwei in industrial and commercial applications.
• LimX Dynamics: Chinese embodied AI robotics startup developing wheeled-legged humanoid and quadruped robots. Competes with Juwei for embodied AI talent and Chinese enterprise customers, though with a broader humanoid focus rather than Juwei's industrial specialization.
• XPeng Robotics (鹏行智能): Backed by XPeng, this Chinese embodied AI subsidiary develops quadruped and humanoid robots. While primarily consumer-oriented, it competes for similar talent and Chinese market attention in the embodied robotics space.

Broad incumbents

• Boston Dynamics: Global advanced robotics leader (Spot quadruped, Stretch logistics robot). While broader in scope and primarily Western-focused, Boston Dynamics sets the technical benchmark for industrial quadrupeds and represents a long-term competitive threat as it expands into commercial inspection verticals.
• Estun (埃斯顿): Leading Chinese industrial robot and motion control manufacturer. While primarily focused on traditional industrial arms, Estun has been expanding into mobile robots and could represent a longer-term competitor as industrial automation converges.
• Siasun Robot & Automation (新松机器人): China's largest state-backed industrial robot maker with broad portfolio including AGVs, mobile platforms, and specialized robotics. Could compete in industrial inspection and hazardous environment applications through government-channel access.

Others

• Agility Robotics: US-based humanoid robot maker (Digit). Operates in the broader embodied robotics space and competes for global enterprise attention and embodied AI mindshare, though focused on bipedal humanoids rather than wheeled-legged quadrupeds like Juwei.
