Shanghai Qiaotian Intelligent Equipment

Shanghai Qiaotian Intelligent Equipment Co., Ltd., also known as QuickQT, is a manufacturer of robotic end-of-arm tooling (EOAT) equipment for flexible industrial production lines. Founded in 2016 by Liu Xiaoping, the company develops and produces equipment aimed at increasing the flexibility and efficiency of automated manufacturing processes.

The company's core product offerings include robotic tool quick-changers, industrial energy connectors, zero-point clamping and positioning systems, magnetic mold changing systems, and grippers. These components enable industrial robots to automatically switch between different tools, such as welding guns and grippers, and facilitate rapid connections for various media like fluids, electricity, and signals. This capability is crucial in industries that require high levels of automation and customization, such as automotive manufacturing, 3C electronics, semiconductors, and new energy. One of its key products is the magnetic mold changing system, which uses electromagnets and permanent magnets to reduce mold change time by over 90%.

Qiaotian positions itself as a domestic alternative to foreign brands that have historically dominated the high-end EOAT market in China. The company serves a client base of major industrial enterprises, including BYD, Geely, Midea, CATL, Huawei, KUKA, ABB, and FANUC. The business model is based on the sale of this specialized hardware, providing one-stop solutions to its customers. In 2023, the firm received tens of millions of yuan in strategic investments from entities including Geely Houtong Capital, WaNiu Capital, and Midea Capital to accelerate growth and the localization of its technology.

With headquarters in Shanghai and a production base in Zhejiang, Qiaotian has expanded its presence with offices in several key industrial cities across China to provide localized sales and after-sales support. The company's products have obtained several industry certifications, including TÜV, CE, and ISO.
