Foxconn Develop New-Generation Robots

Foxconn, manufacturer of computer components and systems, is developing new-generation robots for the purpose of automation on its product lines. Foxconn breaks through the bottleneck in key technologies, its goal of building a million automation robots to be achieved shortly which is expected to be around October.

Foxconn has also been investing in nanometer technologies and through long-term R&D and the acquisition of related patents, Foxconn to become the leader of the industry in 3-5 years.
