Darker bar: ahead of the other company on that measure.

Positioning

Rokae is one of China's leading independent industrial robot makers, positioning itself as the domestic alternative to the "big four" (Fanuc/ABB/KUKA/Yaskawa) at the high-precision, force-controlled end of the market rather than the commodity end. Its core lines are the xMate force-controlled collaborative robots and industrial six-axis arms sold into electronics, automotive and general manufacturing, and it completed a Hong Kong IPO (HKEX 3752) in July 2026 — revenue growing but still loss-making. Since 2025 it has expanded into embodied intelligence with the Human.X humanoid and force-controlled arms marketed as components for other embodied-AI builders, so it now plays both as a robot maker and as an arms supplier to the humanoid wave.
