CHANGSHA, China, Jan. 15, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Zoomlion Heavy Industry Science & Technology Co., Ltd. ("Zoomlion"; 1157.HK) is driving a new wave of intelligent transformation by integrating AI with construction machinery, the industrial internet, big data, and cloud computing. Its full-chain AI system spans smart products, manufacturing, management, and embodied-intelligence robotics, reshaping the company into a fully digital and intelligent enterprise. Zoomlion is also scaling humanoid robotics as its "third growth curve," backed by proprietary hardware-software integration capabilities.

Zoomlion's full-chain AI application system covers four major pillars, namely, AI plus construction machinery, AI plus intelligent manufacturing, AI plus intelligent management, and AI plus embodied-intelligence robots. At Zoomlion Smart City, 12 smart factories and over 300 smart production lines, including 20 lights-out lines, operate as an end-to-end intelligent manufacturing system. In the AI plus intelligent manufacturing domain, processes such as cutting, welding, machining, painting, and assembly are fully connected to the industrial internet platform. This allows unified management of over 100,000 material types and intelligent manufacturing of over 400 products. 

AI-driven scheduling and optimization enable the park to produce an excavator every six minutes, a scissor lift every 7.5 minutes, a concrete pump truck every 27 minutes, and a truck crane every 18 minutes, marking a breakthrough in large-scale, multi-variety, small-batch agile manufacturing. Zoomlion also applies AI across R&D, production, sales, service, and supply chain management. For customer service, the Company has launched a voice-based AI expert diagnostic system with over 95 percent accuracy, enabling remote fault identification, rapid troubleshooting, and 24-hour technical support. 

Since 2024, Zoomlion has expanded into embodied-intelligence humanoid robotics, leveraging its full-stack self-development capabilities. Dozens of humanoid robots are now deployed in factory logistics, loading and unloading, pre-assembly, and quality inspection, forming early productivity use cases. Supported by a self-built training ground with over 100 workstations and large-scale industrial datasets, Zoomlion enables rapid iteration of human-robot collaboration. All humanoid and industrial robots are connected to the Zhongke Yungu Embodied Intelligence Platform, which integrates data, training, simulation, and OTA deployment into a closed loop, powered by a national supercomputing center with 59P GPU computing capacity and tens of thousands of distributed nodes.

Beyond humanoid robotics, Zoomlion is developing a wider range of specialized robots for firefighting, mowing, construction, and agriculture. With deep integration across hardware, AI models, and real-world scenarios, the company is positioning embodied intelligence as its next major growth engine.

SHENZHEN, China, May 29, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- For 12 years, Creality, a global leader in consumer 3D printing, has advanced accessible 3D printing technologies, enabling global users to turn ideas into tangible creations. What began as a desktop 3D printer manufacturer has evolved into a global consumer 3D creation ecosystem spanning printers, scanners, laser devices, materials, software platforms, and creator communities across approximately 140 countries and regions.

As the Company celebrates its 12th anniversary under the theme "The Twelve Years of Creality: AI Ecosystem," it enters a new phase of growth driven by ecosystem expansion, AI integration, and continued investment in next-generation digital manufacturing technologies. The anniversary also follows Creality's recent listing in Hong Kong, marking a new stage in the company's global expansion.

A 12-Year Shift from Hardware to a Global Creation Ecosystem

Over the past decade, Creality has expanded from a single-product manufacturer into a multi-category platform company in the consumer 3D space.

Today, its ecosystem spans hardware, software, cloud platforms, materials, and creator communities across design, production, and sharing workflows. This structure is anchored by Creality Cloud, the Company's global creator platform, and supported by a growing network of makers, educators, and design communities.

AI is also becoming an increasingly important part of the user experience across modelling, printing, and production workflows, helping improve accessibility, automation, and creative efficiency for mainstream users.

Product Innovation: KliTek™ Leads the Expanding Multi-Material and Flexible Manufacturing Capabilities

Creality introduces KliTek™ technology, a next-generation nozzle-changing solution designed to overcome key limitations in traditional multi-material 3D printing, including slow filament switching, material waste, colour bleeding, and complex maintenance requirements. By combining a lightweight nozzle-changing architecture with independent material pathways, KliTek™ enables faster and more efficient multi-colour and multi-material printing while simplifying system maintenance.

The platform also expands the possibilities of flexible material manufacturing. Supported by technologies including RFID filament recognition and the S-Drive™ dual-power feeding system, KliTek™ unlocks advanced TPU printing capabilities, supporting multi-colour and multi-hardness TPU applications within a single print process while significantly expanding the possibilities of consumer-grade flexible manufacturing.

Creality also announced major releases and upgrades, including:

Creality Cloud AI Ecosystem Upgrade — A major platform upgrade introducing AI-assisted modelling, intelligent slicing optimisation, automated parameter recommendations, and print-risk detection features designed to simplify the workflow from creation to production.

Falcon T1 — An advanced multi-function laser platform designed to support creative production across engraving, cutting, and precision fabrication workflows.

Pika & Sermoon P1 Scanner — Next-generation scanning solutions combining portable design, intelligent imaging, and high-precision digital capture capabilities for creators and professional users.

M1 & R1 Filament Recycling System — A material recycling and regeneration platform that enables users to recycle waste materials and produce customised filament, supporting a more sustainable manufacturing workflow.

From Products to a Full AI-driven Ecosystem

Creality also continues to expand its software and AI ecosystem through Creality Cloud, its integrated creation platform.

New AI capabilities streamline the end-to-end workflow from model generation to print execution, including AI-assisted modelling, intelligent slicing optimisation, automated parameter suggestions, and print-risk detection. These capabilities are designed to reduce technical barriers and enable more users to participate in 3D creation without advanced engineering expertise. Beyond printing, the ecosystem now spans scanning, laser engraving, materials, and workflow tools, supporting a broader creation experience for users and creators.

Entering a New Growth Phase Following Public Listing

Following its successful listing in Hong Kong, Creality enters a new phase of global expansion and ecosystem development. Rather than a milestone endpoint, the listing represents a new starting point in Creality's global growth journey — supporting creator engagement and expansion in the global 3D market.
