Aptiv and Shanghai Electric expand into robotics production
What happened
Aptiv and Shanghai Electric signed cooperation agreements to expand into the robotics market. The agreements plan for hundreds of embodied robots from both partners to gradually enter Aptiv's production scenarios. These robots are being used for processes such as material picking, positioning, insertion, and feeding in Aptiv's actual production lines.
