In an era where technological innovation drives industrial transformation, close collaboration among government, enterprises, and academic institutions has become increasingly important. On May 7, a delegation led by Tsinghua University Mechanical Engineering Department Director and President of the Tsinghua University Tianjin Institute for Advanced Equipment, Zhou Ming, visited Chiehey for an in-depth research and exchange session.
The delegation was accompanied by Shen Le, Vice Mayor of Jiangyin and Head of the Wuxi New Energy Industry Technology Officials Group, along with Li Luona, Deputy Director of the Jiangyin Science and Technology Bureau. Mr. Liu Junhui, General Manager of Chiehey, warmly welcomed the guests and provided a comprehensive presentation on the company’s development and future strategy.
Technological Innovation Driving Industrial Development
Chiehey specializes in the research, development, production, sales, and application of six-axis industrial robots dedicated to spray coating applications. The company has established three core business sectors:
- Spray painting robots
- Automated coating solutions
- Flexible shared spray booth systems
The company provides diversified products and services, including industrial painting robots, integrated coating automation solutions, and professional spray coating services tailored to different customer requirements.
Committed to independent innovation, Chiehey has developed large-reach intelligent spray painting robots with a working radius of up to 3,800 mm. The company is also among the first in China to propose an “AI + Spray Painting Robot + Coating Process” technical approach, aimed at solving flexible painting challenges in modern manufacturing environments and creating a proprietary “Flexible Coating System.”
The robot end-effector adopts a high-precision BBR transmission structure, enabling agile wrist movement, front-facing operation without singularity points, and enhanced operational flexibility. In addition, the lightweight and modular design effectively reduces manufacturing costs while improving market competitiveness.
Currently, Chiehey has successfully commercialized five spray painting robot models with different arm spans, suitable for a wide range of industrial application scenarios. This diversified product portfolio allows the company to better meet evolving market demands.
Future Development Strategy and Industry Vision
The future planning of Chiehey carries significant strategic value and long-term impact.
From an industry perspective, the company’s continuous technological innovation and market expansion are expected to accelerate the intelligent and high-end transformation of the spray painting robot industry, promoting broader industrial upgrading and structural optimization.
Through collaborations with universities and research institutions, the company also aims to cultivate more highly skilled professionals, providing strong talent support for the future development of the intelligent manufacturing sector.
At the regional economic level, the growth of Chiehey is expected to drive coordinated development across related industrial supply chains, attract upstream and downstream enterprises, and create a stronger industrial cluster effect in Jiangyin and surrounding regions.
Furthermore, the company’s expansion will create additional employment opportunities, improve local income levels, and contribute positively to sustainable regional economic growth.
Research Visit Outcomes and Future Outlook
During the visit, all parties engaged in extensive and in-depth discussions covering enterprise development, technological innovation, industrial trends, and future cooperation opportunities.
Mr. Liu Junhui, General Manager of Chiehey, provided a detailed presentation on the company’s current achievements, R&D capabilities, and strategic roadmap, demonstrating both the company’s strong technical foundation and ambitious long-term vision.
This research visit holds great significance for Chiehey. On one hand, direct communication with government leaders and university experts enables the company to better understand policy directions and emerging industry trends, helping refine its development strategy and market positioning.
On the other hand, strengthening ties with prestigious institutions such as Tsinghua University will provide valuable intellectual support for future technology development and talent cultivation, further enhancing the company’s competitive advantages in innovation and advanced manufacturing.
