Shenyang Siasun Robot & Automation Co., Ltd. (新松机器人自动化股份有限公司) was founded in 2000 in Shenyang, Liaoning Province, and belongs to the China Academy of Sciences, giving it a research pedigree shared by few industrial robotics companies in the world. With reported revenue of $547.5 million and a workforce of 1,000 to 5,000 professionals, Siasun is China’s most established full-spectrum robotics company. Its industrial park in Shenyang is the largest robotic industrial base in China, featuring the country’s first Industry 4.0 demonstration factory, with an annual production capability exceeding 10,000 robot sets across industrial, mobile, and service platforms. Products have been exported to 32 countries. Despite this scale, Siasun remains largely unknown in Western European procurement markets.
Facility: China’s First Industry 4.0 Demonstration Factory
Siasun’s Shenyang high-tech industrial park is China’s largest dedicated robotics production complex. The facility went into full operation in 2017 and is notable for being the first factory in China certified as an Industry 4.0 demonstration manufacturing project, meaning the factory that makes robots is itself fully automated by robots. The park covers multiple production buildings for industrial robot arm assembly, mobile robot (AMR/AGV) production, controller and servo manufacturing, and system integration engineering. A digital intelligent factory within the complex operates with an annual production capability of over 10,000 robot units, running continuous multi-shift production. Siasun’s headquarters in Shenyang is supported by international HQ in Shanghai and a financial HQ in Beijing, reflecting the company’s national and global operating scope.
Product Range: From Heavy Industrial Arms to Medical Robots
Siasun’s product portfolio is the broadest of any Chinese robot manufacturer: industrial robot arms for welding, handling, and assembly; autonomous mobile robots (AMR) and AGVs for intralogistics; clean-room robots for semiconductor and pharmaceutical applications; rail transit maintenance robots; and medical service robots for rehabilitation and surgical assistance. The company has provided industrial automation services to over 3,000 multinational enterprises and serves demanding industries including automotive, advanced healthcare, and semiconductor fabrication. Siasun is one of the few Chinese companies with proven deployments in both heavy industrial and precision clean-room environments.

Siasun’s AI Integration Strategy
Since 2024, Siasun has positioned its entire product line around the “Robot Plus AI” strategy: integrating large language model interfaces and real-time vision AI into robot controllers for adaptive task execution. This means Siasun robots can receive natural language work instructions and interpret unstructured environments without pre-programmed waypoints, a capability that dramatically reduces deployment time for new applications. The company cashed in on this positioning at the 2024 China High-Tech Fair and continues to develop cross-sector solutions that blend physical robot capability with AI decision-making. For international buyers, Siasun’s scale, product breadth, and China Academy of Sciences technical backing represent a sourcing opportunity that the European market has not yet fully recognized.
