On July 9, 2026, Unbounded Power announced that its second-generation K15 robot has achieved full industrial-grade CE certification, making it the world's first embodied intelligent robot to do so. The K15 has passed multiple EU standards, including CE-MD for machinery safety and EN ISO 13849 for functional safety, confirming its compliance with the highest global safety standards.
This certification is significant as it allows the K15 to enter the European industrial manufacturing chain, enhancing its marketability in regions like the UK. The K15's compliance with stringent safety and electromagnetic compatibility standards ensures reliable operation in complex industrial environments, addressing potential risks associated with physical interactions and electromagnetic interference.
With nearly $100 million in global orders now in the delivery phase, the first batch of K15 robots is being shipped to Europe. This marks a critical step in Unbounded Power's strategy to expand its global footprint and enhance the value chain of Chinese manufacturing, transitioning from hardware exports to integrated intelligent infrastructure solutions. No further timeline was disclosed at the time of publication.
Editor's Note
The successful CE certification of the K15 robot signals a shift in the robotics industry towards higher compliance standards, particularly for safety and interoperability in complex environments.
