Schneider Electric is a global expert in digital transformation in energy management and automation , and JEKA Robotics is a global leader in collaborative robots. Combining their respective strengths, the two parties jointly launched the Lexium collaborative robot and integrated it into Schneider Electric's EcoStruxure open automation platform to jointly create solutions in industrial automation, robot control, and advanced mechatronics, and deepen the application of collaborative robots in industrial intelligent manufacturing systems.

From the perspective of the development trend of intelligent manufacturing, robots need to be more fully integrated into the entire industrial intelligent manufacturing system, interact with other intelligent devices, perceive and adapt to the working environment, integrate complex information and make decisions. Collaborative robots have the characteristics of flexible intelligence, dexterity and safety, simplicity and ease of use, low carbon and energy saving, and are more adaptable to unstructured environments. They can not only work with humans in the same space, but also have a low threshold for use. Ordinary workers can quickly master skills such as collaborative robot operation and programming, and engage in more creative work. Therefore, the most likely to be integrated into the industrial intelligent manufacturing system is not the mature industrial robot , but the rapidly growing collaborative robot.

Schneider Electric has made an equity investment in JEKA Robotics to jointly promote the innovative development of collaborative robot technology.

"In order to find collaborative robots that can meet the needs of the global high-end manufacturing industry, we conducted a long global survey. After a comprehensive and in-depth investigation of these companies' product R&D capabilities, production management levels, quality control systems, etc., we finally chose JEKA Robotics as our exclusive partner. We believe that JEKA Robotics has strong advantages in industrial applications, and its professional technology and practical experience will bring great value to the cooperation between the two parties. We look forward to working with JEKA Robotics to promote the sustainable development of intelligent manufacturing." said Rav Lawana, Vice President of Industrial Automation at Schneider Electric.

"Jieka Robotics products are intelligent terminals that integrate execution and information, and have core competitiveness in hardware, software and ecosystem. Schneider Electric's achievements in green intelligent manufacturing and digital transformation have attracted much attention. The two parties will jointly explore new opportunities in industrial automation and digital transformation, provide more efficient and intelligent industrial manufacturing solutions for global customers, meet the ever-changing market needs, and help companies build flexible systems and sustainable competitive advantages." said Chang Li, vice president of Jieka Robotics.

JEKA Robotics and Schneider Electric will jointly build a service center to provide more efficient and sustainable services to global customers. The cooperation between the two parties will build long-term competitive advantages for global industrial enterprises, drive the innovative development of the industrial ecosystem, and inject new impetus into industrial intelligent automation and digital transformation.
