Chinas UBTech arbeitet mit Airbus zusammen, um humanoide Roboter in die Luftfahrtfertigung zu bringen – Der Deal folgt einem ähnlichen mit dem US-Halbleiterhersteller Texas Instruments und unterstreicht die beschleunigte Auslandsoffensive des chinesischen Unternehmens

From the article

Chinese humanoid developer UBTech Robotics has struck a deal to supply European aviation giant Airbus with robots for its manufacturing facilities, the latest step in efforts to expand industrial applications of its robots outside China.

Airbus purchased UBTech’s Walker S2 robot as part of a plan to jointly explore robotics applications in aviation manufacturing, Shenzhen-based UBTech said in a statement on Sunday.

The deal follows a similar partnership last month with US semiconductor maker Texas Instruments (TI), underscoring the Chinese firm’s accelerated overseas push to deploy humanoid robots in a wide range of manufacturing sectors such as aviation, semiconductors, vehicles and consumer electronics.
