China’s Agibot Deploys Robots in a Consumer Electronics Manufacturing Production Line

Insider Brief

  • Agibot said it has deployed its robots in a consumer electronics precision manufacturing mass-production line with Longcheer Technology, marking what it described as the first large-scale industrial implementation of embodied AI in the sector.
  • The deployment places multiple G2 robots alongside human operators to perform tasks including loading, circuit board handling and testing, achieving throughput of up to 310 units per hour, cycle times of 19–20 seconds and operation rates above 99%.
  • Agibot said the system operates continuously with minimal human intervention and plans to scale deployments to 100 robots by 2026, as it targets broader adoption across industries including semiconductors and energy.

China’s Agibot announced it has deployed its robots in a consumer electronics precision manufacturing mass-production line, marking what the company said is the first large-scale industrial implementation of embodied AI in the sector.

According to Agibot, the deployment was out with Longcheer Technology and places multiple Agibot’s G2 humanoid robots alongside human operators in real manufacturing environments, shifting from pilot-stage systems to sustained, production-level use.

“2026 marks the beginning of large-scale deployment for embodied intelligence,” noted Dr. Yao Maoqing, Agibot partner, senior vice president and president of the company’s embodied business unit. “This project demontrates that embodied AI is no longer experimental. It is a practical, production-ready capability that can operate reliably under real industrial conditions and deliver measurable economic value.”

How Are Agibot’s Robots Being Used by Longcheer?

Agibot said the robots are being used across high-speed assembly lines, performing tasks including loading and unloading, handling circuit boards, navigating factory layouts and assisting with testing processes, without requiring customized tooling or major infrastructure changes.

The system is designed to adapt to dynamic production requirements, with robots operating continuously and coordinating across workflows typically handled by multiple manual processes. Agibot reported throughput of up to 310 units per hour, cycle times of approximately 19 to 20 seconds per operation and continuous operation rates exceeding 99%, with deployment completed within 36 hours.

The system is capable of 24/7 autonomous operation with minimal human intervention, with downtime measured in seconds over extended production periods, according to the company.

Agibot said it plans to expand deployments to 100 robots by 2026 as it targets broader adoption across industries including semiconductors and energy.

In March, Agibot announced it had produced its 10,000th humanoid robot as production accelerated from 1,000 units over nearly two years to 5,000 in about a year and then doubled to 10,000 in three months. The company attributed the ramp to a maturing supply chain and manufacturing efficiency gains, with deployments expanding across logistics, retail, hospitality, education and early industrial workflows.
