South Korea's Cowin Robotics said on 10 November that it has won a new order for an integrated robot system for a production line of medium and large energy storage systems (ESS) at a global ESS company. The buyer and the value were not disclosed for business reasons.

The company said the order follows a 20.4 billion won order in March from Seojin System for ESS robots bound for the United States and an 8.5 billion won order in August through DFS for a domestic line. It is also in talks to supply robot systems for the same customer's expansion at another gigafactory in North America.

This time Cowin Robotics will supply robots for the earlier stages of the line, battery pack production and inspection, as well as assembly and logistics. It combines six-axis industrial robots with low and high-pick mobile robots, and has supplied heavy mobile robots that carry finished ESS units weighing tens of tonnes.
