Keli Sensing

Business

Keli (宁波柯力传感科技股份有限公司) makes industrial sensors for weighing, force, torque, vibration, temperature and other measurements, and builds internet-of-things systems around them. Its robot sensing line covers six-axis force and torque sensors and joint torque sensors (2026 interim report, p. 8).

Results

In the first half of 2026 revenue rose 22.3% to ¥837.8m, while net profit attributable to shareholders fell 24.4% to ¥130.7m (p. 5). The company does not give a robot revenue line.

Robot force sensors

The company says its robot force sensor business moved from small batches to batch supply in the first half of 2026 (p. 9). It says that:

• monthly orders have passed 1,000 units since April, and it sold more than 2,000 robot force sensors in January to June, more than its shipments in all of 2025;
• it has sent samples to more than 90 humanoid, collaborative and industrial robot makers, including six-axis force and torque sensors and joint torque sensors;
• some customers have placed batch orders, several leading customers are validating its sensors, and batch shipments are going to AI massage robots and humanoids, without naming the customers.

It has also invested in companies in the robot chain, among them the humanoid maker Kepler, tactile sensor makers and an inertial sensor maker (p. 9).

Where it stands

Keli is the only company covered here that reports robot sensor unit counts. Volumes are in the thousands, so the business is still small next to its ¥838m of revenue, and the report names no humanoid customer.
