“The number of retarders and servo systems required by humanoid robots is higher than that of industrial robots, and the cost ratio should also be higher than that of industrial robots.” With the growth of the market, the demand for core components such as decelerators and servo systems for humanoid robots will also increase greatly.” Hua ‘an Securities chief analyst Yin Yanji believes.
