About WATTMAN

Beijing Wattman Smart Technology Co., Ltd., operating as WATTMAN, was established in 2018 and is headquartered in Beijing. The company's name is a tribute to steam engine inventor James Watt, signifying the founding team's ambition to be pioneers in the new era of industrial intelligence. The team possesses a strong technical foundation, with members having prior experience at major technology and engineering firms such as Tencent, Huawei, Baidu, and ABB.

WATTMAN positions itself as a full-stack "AI + Robot" solutions provider, targeting the digitalization and automation of China's foundational raw material industries. Its client base is concentrated in sectors like steel and non-ferrous metal metallurgy, energy, power, and mining machinery. The business model revolves around designing, developing, and implementing integrated software and hardware systems to create unmanned digital factories. This includes providing industrial intelligent robots, fully automated smart equipment, machine vision inspection systems, and digital factory system platforms.

The company's core technology portfolio encompasses machine vision, 3D intelligent perception, smart positioning, AI algorithms, and digital twin implementations. One of its key product applications is a 3D intelligent cleaning and grinding robot, which has seen successful deployment in numerous domestic electrolytic aluminum production lines for major corporations including Xinfa Group and the Aluminum Corporation of China. WATTMAN's solutions leverage machine vision to convert visual data into actionable signals for robotic control and quality inspection. Furthermore, it utilizes multi-sensor fusion (including LiDAR, vision, and force sensors) and deep neural networks to enable its robots to understand complex environments and perform tasks that enhance production efficiency and safety, moving clients toward fully automated operations. The firm has been recognized as a national-level "specialized, refined, and new" Little Giant enterprise, a designation for promising high-tech small and medium-sized enterprises in China.
