Lingbao CASBOT Completes Nearly 100 Million Yuan Angel+Round Financing, Accelerating Commercialization with Practical Technology}

【June 26, 2025, Beijing, China】 Recently, humanoid robot brand Lingbao CASBOT announced the completion of nearly 100 million yuan in angel+round financing. The round was led by Lens Technology, with participation from Tianjin Jiayi and existing shareholders Guotou Chuanghe and Henan Assets.

The funds will mainly be used to accelerate product mass production, technological R&D iteration, and market expansion, continuously strengthening the company's core competitive advantages in technological leadership and commercialization.

Lens Technology, the new investor, stated that Lingbao CASBOT has demonstrated outstanding innovation and practical deployment capabilities in the field of embodied intelligence robots. Especially in the industrial scene, Lingbao CASBOT’s VLA technology, which combines reinforcement learning with VLA models, effectively handles the complexity of real manufacturing environments. Additionally, its series of dexterous robotic hands achieve sub-millimeter precision and flexible grasping, filling industry gaps and showing strong competitiveness in precision manufacturing. The team’s deep understanding of industrial scenarios ensures its products meet core customer needs such as flexible production and cost control.

Tianjin Jiayi noted that Lingbao CASBOT has established a differentiated advantage in mining scenarios, forming deep collaborations with industry giants like Zhongjin Group, China Minmetals, and CITIC Heavy Industries. “We see this as an efficient engine transforming technological advantages into sustainable business growth. In the fierce industry competition, we choose to support teams that truly understand technology, industry, and business fundamentals.”

The round of financing injects new momentum into Lingbao CASBOT, helping it accelerate the integration of technology, products, and scenarios. Relying on self-developed technology, it aims to break through the application boundaries of embodied intelligence robots and continuously solidify its leadership in technology-enabled scenarios.

Building a Moat with Self-Developed Technology, Creating a Robotic Engine

Founded at the end of 2023, Lingbao CASBOT focuses on developing general humanoid robots and embodied intelligent products for scenario deployment. Its core team includes senior experts from top universities and tech companies worldwide, with over 20 years of experience in intelligent robotics, precision assembly, visual servoing, and robot skill learning.

Since its inception, Lingbao CASBOT has built a technological moat through self-research. In the current “brainpower” competition of humanoid robots, it enhances the “brain” of robots with the visual-language-action (VLA) model, improving generalization and operational capabilities.

The VLA model, as the core engine for current humanoid robot applications, boasts strong generalization, high versatility, scene adaptability, and low-cost data-driven advantages. It is a key leap for embodied intelligence from labs to real-world scenarios, showing application potential in industrial manufacturing, commercial services, and energy sectors, reshaping the development landscape of robotics and related fields.

Recently, Lingbao CASBOT and the Institute of Automation, Chinese Academy of Sciences, jointly proposed the “Reinforcement Learning-based Fine-tuning of VLA Models in Real Environments” method, addressing core issues such as policy collapse during fine-tuning, low online training sample efficiency, and unstable learning processes. This method significantly improves the safety, efficiency, and robustness of VLA models in real robot tasks, opening new pathways for practical deployment.

Continuously refining its technological foundation, Lingbao CASBOT has also gained academic recognition. Its joint research with CAS on “Enhancing Human Intent Estimation and Role Allocation in Physical Human-Robot Collaboration” was accepted at ICRA 2025.

With embodied VLA models, Lingbao CASBOT’s humanoid robots and embodied intelligent products have higher perception, decision-making, and operational capabilities. Its excellent stability and end-effector precision enable it to break the “last centimeter,” achieving sub-millimeter accuracy for real-world tasks.

For example, its innovative five-finger dexterous hand, combining embodied intelligence, compliant force control, and precision operation, can perform twisting, pinching, and complex assembly, inspection, and picking tasks to meet flexible manufacturing needs.

In terms of body and motion control, Lingbao CASBOT successfully completed scene validation at the first “Humanoid Robot Half Marathon” in April. Its demo model, CASBOT SE, demonstrated stable and durable movement control with a human-like knee walking gait, achieving zero falls and zero errors, showcasing its maturity for real-world applications.

Thanks to its deep technological accumulation, Lingbao CASBOT launched its first biped humanoid robot, “CASBOT 01” (nicknamed “Wednesday”), with 52 degrees of freedom, 550T computing power, and integrated control, achieving high-performance, full-body, long-term dexterous operation within just one year.

Six months after the launch of “CASBOT 01,” Lingbao CASBOT upgraded to “CASBOT 02,” equipped with multimodal perception systems and high-performance RCU. During the 618 shopping festival, CASBOT 02 was listed on JD.com for 328,800 yuan, quickly generating online orders. This marks a significant milestone in its consumer channel layout, mass production, and market entry, completing the transition from R&D to commercial application.

Industrial Leap: Embracing the “Productivity Era” of Humanoid Robots

Technological innovation has laid the foundation for Lingbao CASBOT’s industrialization, while scenario-driven R&D continues to feed back into technological evolution. Driven by real demands in manufacturing, services, and energy sectors, Lingbao CASBOT forms a closed loop of “technological breakthroughs → scenario validation → demand feedback,” establishing itself as a benchmark in humanoid robot industrialization.

Recently, Lingbao CASBOT and Shandong Zhaojin Group Co., Ltd., and Shandong Minmetals Group Co., Ltd. signed a strategic cooperation agreement, establishing a joint venture focusing on underground mining embodied robots and safety patrols, promoting the industry’s intelligent transformation and safety development.

In addition to mining, Lingbao CASBOT has partnered with CITIC Heavy Industries to develop domestically produced specialized humanoid robots and internationally competitive products, deepening its presence in niche scenarios and shaping the industry’s R&D and industrialization trajectory.

Driven by technology and products, Lingbao CASBOT and partners are penetrating industrial manufacturing, services, and energy sectors, continuously advancing the industry with insights into core pain points and evolving needs, pushing the boundaries of humanoid robot applications.

Whether exploring mining or specialized fields, Lingbao CASBOT is pioneering the “unmanned” frontier of humanoid robot industrialization, enabling frontier technology to extend infinitely within practical applications, embodying new productivity.

After this round of financing, Lens Technology will open its extensive scenarios in consumer electronics, smart vehicles, and smart home appliances, collaborating closely with Lingbao CASBOT to accelerate the large-scale application and real-world deployment of embodied intelligent robots globally. It will also provide key components and assembly for mass production, supporting quality and cost control, jointly driving the upgrade of intelligent manufacturing and redefining future human-machine collaboration.

Adhering to the brand philosophy of “Born for Humanity,” Lingbao CASBOT will continue to innovate and take responsibility, making each technological leap a step toward empowering human workers, and painting a new picture of “human-machine coexistence,” injecting disruptive technological energy into industry transformation.
