2026 WRC EXHIBITOR INDUSTRY REPORT
What 313 exhibitors reveal about China's robotics value chain.
Using the official 2026 World Robot Conference exhibitor records, this report groups participants into robot OEMs and systems, or supply-chain and core-component companies, then examines halls, products and technology segments. The figures describe the exhibition sample, not the full national company population.

Robot OEMs and supply-chain companies appear in nearly equal numbers. The show therefore presents not only humanoid bodies, but a broader chain spanning sensing, actuation and manufacturing processes.
Within the supply-chain sample, motion components and sensing/control/computing form dense clusters. Joints, force control, machine vision and edge computing remain active areas of industrial competition.
Robot companies span industrial, service, medical and special-purpose applications. Humanoid and embodied AI are prominent themes, while commercialization is still driven by concrete tasks and sector-specific workflows.
Classification uses company profiles and listed products, assigning companies by their primary exhibits rather than by name alone. All 313 records are classified. English names prioritize exhibitor-submitted metadata on the WRC pages. An official website is shown only when a clear company source is available. All non-empty profile and product fields are checked across Chinese, English and Japanese.
Note: many companies span several technology layers. For readable statistics, this report assigns one primary category and one primary segment to each exhibitor. The results describe structure, not company-registration totals or market share.
