台灣的創博公司（NexCOBOT ）將於今年開始量產機器人

TAIPEI (Taiwan News) — NexCobot, a subsidiary of Nexcom International Co., said it has more than 20 global clients, with robot orders booked through the third quarter and mass production expected to begin in the second half of this year.

NexCobot President Shen Chien-i (沈倩怡) said the company focused on the development of humanoid robots and robot dogs last year, while most of its orders were for collaborative and industrial robots. She added that its orders grew by more than 60% in 2025 and shipments increased by 25%, per CNA.

Shen noted the company mainly sells robots for automobile manufacturing in Europe and the US, while its sales in China are largely industrial robots. In response to strong competition in China’s robotics market, the company plans to expand its presence in Europe and the US.

There are more than 300 humanoid robot companies worldwide, about half of them in China. She estimated the humanoid robot market could reach NT$157.5 trillion (US$5 trillion) by 2050, with major applications in the automotive and logistics warehousing sectors.

Company Chair Lin Mao-chang (林茂昌) said that NextCobot’s robot solutions include AI-powered systems, motion control, vision modules, joints, and cybersecurity technologies, adding that it provides comprehensive hardware and software solutions for robotics.

Lin noted that human-robot collaboration is expected to become common. He added the company has also been developing safety modules designed to prevent injuries to humans if a robot malfunctions.

NextCobot and its parent company, an Nvidia partner, will showcase their robots at this year’s Nvidia GTC. The four-day event in San Jose runs through March 19 and will focus on physical AI, AI factory applications, agentic AI, and high-efficiency inference technologies.

NextCobot added that it has used the Nvidia Jetson computing platform to enhance its robots’ AI decision-making and motion control. The company will also present its robotics function integration technologies at the event.
