Leading collaborative robot company in China, ranked #2 domestic and top-5 global with 10.3% and 3.5% market share respectively (2024). Originally incubated by Han's Laser, pursuing IPO on HKEX. Critically, Huayan is the only major Chinese cobot company that sells core motion components externally — positioning itself as the "CATL of the robotics era" by supplying motors, drives, and joint modules to humanoid robot makers rather than competing with them. CEO Wang Guangneng: "Many humanoid robot companies have become our customers. I don't want them to see us as competitors." In 2025, officially began supplying motors and cobots to leading Chinese humanoid robot companies. Has developed dedicated humanoid joint modules integrating frameless torque motors, precision reducers, 19-bit encoders, and force sensors for humanoid upper limbs. IPO earmarks HKD 128M (~USD 16.5M) specifically for humanoid robot core components including micro servo drives, hollow cup motors, and humanoid joint modules. 20+ years of motion control R&D. Addresses two critical humanoid bottlenecks: dependence on imported joint modules (>60% of costs) and weak alignment between motion control algorithms and hardware.
