Gasgoo Munich- Gasgoo has learned that Xingji Guangnian recently closed a Pre-A++ funding round. Led by Shunchuang Industrial Investment, with participation from existing shareholder Yunshi Capital and Weixing Ningyuan, the proceeds will primarily be used to deploy its general dexterous manipulation platform in industrial settings, refine products, upgrade production lines, and build a global team.With this latest close, Xingji Guangnian has secured two funding rounds in three months, totaling over 100 million yuan.Image Source: Xingji GuangnianFounded in August 2024, Xingji Guangnian specializes in embodied intelligence and general manipulation. The startup focuses on building an industrial-grade general end-effector platform centered on dexterous hands.Guided by the principles of modularity, scalability, and replicability, the company has established a full-stack technology architecture spanning underlying joint modules, dexterous hand products, embodied data collection systems, and embodied intelligence manipulation models. It has launched a multi-product matrix including the fully cable-driven Pantheon series and the direct-drive Gaia series.The Pantheon series employs a deep biomimetic "tendon-muscle" coordination mechanism, enabling efficient multi-degree-of-freedom (DOF) linkage control. Paired with Xingji Guangnian's proprietary instant auto-tensioning algorithm, the Pantheon line maintains a lightweight design at the end-effector while delivering capabilities including high DOF, precision, impact resistance, and load capacity.The Gaia series, built on Xingji Guangnian's in-house micro-joint modules, features a modular design as simple as building blocks.The newly launched Gaia Hand 20 series is built on the principles of modularity, high DOF, and tiered tactile feedback, with 20 degrees of freedom across the line. It features an industry-first tiered tactile configuration, flexibly adapting to diverse R&D needs ranging from basic motion control verification to multimodal perception operations.Furthermore, the Gaia Hand 20's joint-level quick-change design allows modules to be swapped out in under five minutes. This reduces downtime and ensures continuity during high-frequency tasks.Currently, Xingji Guangnian's products are in use at top universities and research institutions worldwide, serving as tools for embodied intelligence research. Meanwhile, leveraging its Pantheon and Gaia product portfolio, the company has entered core sectors such as 3C precision manufacturing and high-risk specialized operations, conducting joint development and scenario validation with leading industry players.About "Seeds Discovery":Gasgoo's "Seeds Discovery" column aims to build a service platform connecting startups, ecosystem partners, investors, and local governments to empower the automotive supply chain.
