February 12 News – Linkerbot (灵心巧手), a leader in the dexterous hand sector, has completed a Series B financing round of nearly CNY 1.5 billion.
The round was led by Daode Investment (道得投资) and Prestige Investment (盛世投资), with participation from Yingyuan Puyuan Fund (盈渊朴远基金), NovaStar (诺瓦星云), Xinding Capital (新鼎资本), Zhonghe Capital (中和资本), Wise Road Capital (智路资本), Chengzhu Investment (诚筑投资), Linyun Capital (临云资本), Jiaming Haochun (嘉铭浩春), Caixin Capital (财鑫资本), and Singapore Eastern Epic Capitals. The funds will be allocated toward core R&D, capacity expansion, and the development of full-stack base capabilities to reinforce its position as a "dexterous hand unicorn."
The company's Linker Hand series currently commands over 80% of the global market for high-degree-of-freedom (DoF) dexterous hands, making Linkerbot the only company worldwide capable of producing over 1,000 units per month. Its product matrix includes diverse technology routes such as tendon-driven, direct-drive, and linkage systems, spanning models like the L20, O6, L6, and the industrial-grade L20 and L30.
Beyond hardware, Linkerbot has established a self-developed full-stack technology base covering underlying drivers, core sensors, and high-level algorithms. Its ecosystem features the Linkerbot Robot Band, the Linker Artisan industrial workstation, and the Open TeleDex remote operating system. The latter utilizes a "TripleAny" architecture—supporting any peripheral, any robotic arm, and any dexterous hand—to significantly lower the costs of data collection.
Looking ahead, the company has also introduced the Dex-Serl real-machine reinforcement learning framework to automate model training. Linkerbot aims to reach a delivery scale of 50,000 to 100,000 units in 2026, driving the global application of embodied intelligence and addressing the "last centimeter" of physical interaction in intelligent manufacturing, research, and humanoid robotics.
