Huayan Robotics Elfin Collaborative Robots

Guangdong Huayan Robotics, whose former Han's Robot domain now redirects to its new site, is a Chinese maker of collaborative robots, heavy-payload robots and humanoid robot components. It listed on the Main Board of the Hong Kong Stock Exchange in March 2026, has manufacturing bases in Shenzhen and Foshan and overseas branches in Germany, the United States and Japan, and reports deployments in 50+ countries and regions.

The Elfin series are 6-axis cobots with a patented double-joint module design, while Elfin-Pro adds integrated end force control and AI vision, and Elfin-Ex is an explosion-proof version for hazardous sites. The S series handles up to 60 kg and 2.2 m reach for machine loading and palletizing, and the STAR mobile manipulator combines an AGV/AMR base with a cobot arm. The company cites repeatability up to ±0.015 mm and serves 3C electronics, automotive, healthcare, metalworking and education.

• Elfin series: 6-axis cobots with a patented double-joint module design.
• Elfin-Pro: integrated end force control and AI vision.
• Elfin-Ex: explosion-proof cobots with NEPSI certification for hazardous areas.
• S series: heavy-payload robots up to 60 kg and 2.2 m reach.
• STAR mobile manipulator: cobot arm on an AGV/AMR base.
• Core components: humanoid joint modules and axial flux motors.

An electronics assembly plant in Vietnam can use Elfin-Pro for screw driving and force-controlled insertion. A paint or chemical plant can deploy Elfin-Ex in explosion-risk zones. A machining workshop can use the S series for heavy part loading and unloading on CNC machines.

Repeatability up to ±0.015 mm and joint speeds up to 370°/s, as stated by the company, support precision assembly at high cycle rates. Built-in force control and vision on Elfin-Pro reduce the need for third-party sensors. Explosion-proof Elfin-Ex models allow automation in chemical and painting areas where standard cobots cannot be used.

Chinese cobot makers are listing in Hong Kong and using the capital to expand abroad, while embodied AI is turning cobot joint technology into a base for humanoid robots. Southeast Asian trade shows such as METALTECH in Kuala Lumpur are part of their push into regional manufacturing.

Listed on the HKEX Main Board (1021.HK) on 30 March 2026; the former hansrobot.net domain redirects to huayan-robotics.net. Over 500 staff including 140+ engineers; ISO 13485 certified; member of the Siemens Xcelerator ecosystem. Exhibited at METALTECH & AUTOMEX 2026 in Kuala Lumpur.
