Overview

SIASUN is the international brand of a Chinese robotics and automation company headquartered in Shenyang, Liaoning. Its business is centered on the industrialization of robotics and the delivery of automation systems for manufacturing and other operational environments. The company’s portfolio includes industrial robots, mobile robots and automated guided vehicles, specialized robots, humanoid-robotics initiatives, and broader intelligent-factory solutions. Rather than operating solely as a component or robot-arm supplier, SIASUN presents itself as an integrated automation provider. Its activities span robotic equipment, material-handling systems, production-line automation, logistics automation, and the engineering and integration work required to connect those systems with customer facilities. This allows the brand to address projects in which hardware, controls, software, production processes, and factory-level deployment need to operate together. The company identifies automotive, electronics, new-energy and other manufacturing sectors as important application areas. In these settings, SIASUN’s systems can support tasks such as assembly, handling, welding, palletizing, internal logistics, inspection, and other repetitive or tightly controlled operations. Its mobile-robotics offering is associated with automated guided vehicles and related intralogistics applications, while its industrial-robotics business addresses conventional factory automation. The company also promotes specialized robotic systems for environments requiring dedicated designs rather than general-purpose production robots.

History

SIASUN is associated with New Song Robot Automation Co., Ltd., a Chinese company focused on the commercialization and deployment of robotics and automation technology. Publicly available material supplied for this dossier does not provide a sufficiently documented founding narrative, named founder, or detailed sequence of corporate milestones, so those points are left unfilled rather than inferred. The company’s documented identity is that of an integrated robotics supplier. Its activities cover industrial robots, mobile robots, automated guided vehicles, specialized robots, humanoid-robotics development, and intelligent-factory solutions. This scope places SIASUN across several layers of the automation value chain: individual robotic equipment, mobile material-handling platforms, application-specific machines, and the engineering systems needed to deploy automation across a production or logistics environment. SIASUN’s industrial-robotics business is oriented toward manufacturing use cases in which repeatability, throughput, and controlled motion are important. Its mobile-robotics activities extend automation beyond fixed production stations by supporting internal transport and intralogistics. Specialized robotics addresses operating conditions or tasks that require purpose-built machines, while the company’s intelligent-factory offering connects automation equipment with broader production-line and facility-level requirements. The brand’s stated application coverage includes automotive, electronics, new-energy, and other industrial sectors. These industries typically require combinations of assembly, handling, welding, palletizing, inspection, line integration, and automated movement of materials. SIASUN’s positioning therefore extends beyond the sale of a standalone robot: it also seeks to provide engineering and system-integration capabilities for customers undertaking wider industrial upgrades. The company presents its work as part of the development and industrialization of China’s robotics sector. It also states that its services reach more than 4,000 enterprises in over 40 countries.

This activity supported a product range that included multi-axis industrial robots, compact robots for electronics-related work, and automation systems using networked controls, machine vision, force sensing, and other intelligent technologies. In 2017, Siasun became the first China-based member of the Robotic Industries Association. The membership provided an international industry connection and reflected the company’s efforts to participate in global robotics networks. Siasun also pursued overseas business, reporting shipments to 32 countries and regions and cooperation with organizations in 17 countries participating in the Belt and Road. Its reported customer and user base included more than 3,000 enterprises, with references to global automotive and technology companies such as BMW, Nissan, Ford, General Motors, and SanDisk. Internationalization became a more explicit strategic theme as company leadership discussed establishing research and development centers in Europe, North America, and Japan. In 2019, Siasun began planning a manufacturing facility in Thailand in connection with the Eastern Economic Corridor. The available reference material does not confirm whether the planned facility was completed or provide subsequent operating details. Siasun’s robotics capabilities also attracted attention outside conventional factory use. During the 2019–2020 coronavirus outbreak, the company donated 21 robots and 10 electric adjustable beds to Shenyang hospitals, with seven robots donated to the Shenyang Red Cross. The contribution placed the company’s technology in a public-health and humanitarian context. The company has described an ongoing interest in 5G, object avoidance, human-computer interaction, facial recognition, and information inquiry devices. These initiatives suggest an effort to extend from conventional industrial robots toward more connected and intelligent automation. Nevertheless, the available sources provide limited information about current ownership, financial performance, executive succession, overseas facilities, and the precise status of individual product lines. More recently, the company's documented milestones include the 2023 establishment of Shenyang SIASUN Semiconductor Equipment Co., Ltd., the inauguration of SIASUN's Shanghai headquarters new office base, and the company leading a national key R&D program on multi-joint industrial robot performance optimization. In 2024, Southeast Asia's first 5G smart factory went into operation; SIASUN's heavy-duty industrial robot made its debut on CCTV's Spring Festival Gala; the company's complete intelligent warehousing and logistics system received CSA certification; and the SR12A-12/1.46 industrial robot won the CIIF Robot Award. In 2025, SIASUN was included in the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology's revised 'Industrial Robot Industry Standard Conditions (2024 Edition)' enterprise list; the SIASUN Embodied Intelligence Research Institute was officially inaugurated; the company released two bionic humanoid robot products—the Ruike series MR73A wheeled humanoid robot and MR73B lifting humanoid robot; and a wholly owned subsidiary was established in Thailand. SIASUN presents its work as part of the development and industrialization of China's robotics sector. It also states that its services reach more than 4,000 enterprises in over 40 countries.
