Bowintec

What Bowintec does

Bowintec (博银合创) is a Shanghai-headquartered industrial embodied AI company founded in June 2025 as a joint venture between Bosch Group's market-oriented investment platform Bosch Origin Capital (博原资本) and leading Chinese embodied AI firm Galaxy General Robotics (银河通用). The company develops and sells industrial embodied intelligence robots (BW10 and BW10-Lite) alongside a self-developed industrial vertical AI model (Bolt), a task orchestration platform (BEAmm-S), and a data collection and training platform (BroPS) that together form a 'robot + model + platform' full-stack architecture targeting non-standardized, complex manufacturing tasks such as assembly, quality inspection, flexible loading/unloading, sorting, and material handling in automotive, logistics, and adjacent industrial sectors.

Bowintec sells hardware units (reference price approximately 300,000 RMB per robot) bundled with proprietary AI models and deployment services directly to large enterprise manufacturers, embedding its engineers onsite for joint development and validation. The company's commercial traction centers on a joint laboratory (RoboFab) with United Automotive Electronics (UAES, the Bosch-SAIC joint venture) for automotive manufacturing deployments and a strategic procurement agreement with Dije Industrial (递捷工业) covering approximately 2,000 BW10 series robots over three years for logistics sorting applications, which the company characterizes as the industry's first large-scale commercial deployment of embodied AI robots.

Bowintec operates a direct enterprise field sales model supplemented by event-driven marketing through major industry conferences such as Bosch Connected World (BCW26) and BBM AI DAY. It closed a Pre-A round of approximately 300 million RMB in May 2026 led by Yuanhe Chengkun, with continued participation from Bosch Ventures, and has committed 1 billion RMB to build a Suzhou Industrial Park R&D and industrialization base. The company is expanding internationally with a CE-certified BW10 variant planned for H1 2027, targeting European and US advanced manufacturing markets via the Bosch global network.

Core offering

Bowintec develops and sells industrial embodied AI robots (BW10 and BW10-Lite) along with a self-developed industrial vertical AI model (Bolt), an embodied intelligence task management platform (BEAmm-S), and an industrial data training platform (BroPS). The integrated robot-plus-model-plus-platform stack is sold to enterprise manufacturers to automate non-standardized tasks such as complex assembly, flexible loading/unloading, sorting, and quality inspection. Engineers are embedded in customer factory floors to validate, integrate, and continuously upgrade deployments via a data flywheel.

Product overview

Bowintec offers a unified platform architecture built on 'robot + model + platform' three-in-one industrial embodied intelligence product structure. The core products include BW10-Lite and BW10 industrial embodied intelligence robots (providing industrial-grade 'body'), Bolt industrial vertical domain model (providing 'brain' for environment understanding, task planning, and flexible generalization), and BEAmm-S task management system plus BroPS data training platform (providing system coordination, data precipitation, and capability upgrades). These integrated components form a full-stack solution from hardware to software, connecting data to model, model to action, and single device to production system.
