ROKAE Reaches Humanoid Arm Delivery Milestone as Industrial Applications Expand

ByMohammed Thaif

ROKAE Robotics announced on October 26, 2026, that it had delivered its 10,000th humanoid force-controlled arm. The milestone unit left the company's manufacturing base in Shandong Province in September, marking an expansion in commercial hardware deployment for embodied AI applications.

The delivery figure applies exclusively to ROKAE's humanoid force-controlled arm product line. It excludes the company's industrial and collaborative robots, which operate across more than 40 countries and regions.

At Schaeffler's Lighthouse Factory in Taicang, China, five ROKAE Helios wheeled humanoid robots equipped with AR Series arms are deployed on an assembly line producing humanoid robot components. Their tasks include parts handling, assembly and inspection.

According to company figures, more than 80 industrial partners have integrated ROKAE's humanoid force-controlled arms into production applications. The company presented these deployments as examples of force-controlled systems operating in manufacturing environments.

Tuo Hua, Founder and CEO of ROKAE Robotics, stated: "Reaching 10,000 units means delivering consistent performance across hardware, control algorithms and manufacturing processes at scale."

The AR Series provides force control at every joint to support responsive interaction with objects and surrounding environments. ROKAE said the product line builds on more than a decade of experience developing force-control technology.

Its compact MAC controller measures 213 × 145.5 × 45 millimetres. Depending on configuration, it can control seven joints in one arm, 14 joints across two arms, or more than 20 joints across a humanoid robot.

ROKAE's wider portfolio includes HSA Series integrated force-controlled joints, the iNex embodied AI control system and Helios wheeled humanoid robots. Founded in 2014, the company reports serving more than 1,000 enterprise customers through its robotic hardware and control solutions.
