A batch of motors manufactured by Linix Motor Co Ltd is to be delivered to Japan for the production of industrial robots after the Spring Festival holiday.

The motors were independently developed by Linix, based in Dongyang city, Zhejiang province. After four years of research, the company finally broke the technical monopoly held by other countries and motors by Linix are now preferred by many robot manufacturers, explained Lei Meihong, the assistant general manager.  

For a long time, most core parts of domestic industrial robots were imported from foreign countries, mainly from Japan and Germany. Linix changed the situation with its advanced products.

Linix manufactures motors not only for industrial robots, but also for other machines. For example the high-tech wheelchair of the British theoretical physicist Stephen Hawking uses a Linix motor to run smoothly.

Linix credits its achievements to its cutting-edge equipment workshops. The company's automatic inspection system can record the production process and the real-time product data is accessible long distances away, allowing clients to learn about the production situation in their own offices. 

Chairman Xu Xiaohua explained that Linix would invest 6 percent of sales revenue to research and development. Its emphasis on the R&D sector has helped the company gain more than 2,000 patents including 519 in 2017.
