3Srobotics - 上海昇视唯盛科技有限公司
3Srobotics (3SVIZ) is a Shanghai AI welding-robot maker backed by HD Hyundai Robotics, serving shipbuilders, steelmakers and rail manufacturers.
3Srobotics, registered as Shanghai 3SVIZ Technology Co., Ltd., was founded in 2020 and is headquartered in Shanghai's Songjiang District, with a manufacturing base in the Haining Economic Development Zone of Zhejiang Province. The company is a participating subsidiary of Jiangsu HIT Robot Co., Ltd. (Shenzhen Stock Exchange: 000584), a listed intelligent-manufacturing group, which gives 3Srobotics access to established industrial-robotics manufacturing and distribution infrastructure.
3Srobotics builds AI-guided welding robots that combine 3D machine vision, proprietary welding algorithms, and robotic hardware into what the company calls an "embodied AI" system for welding. Its product line has progressed through three generations: standard industrial welding manipulators, second-generation smart welding robots that use AI-based part recognition to work on non-standard or irregular components without manual teaching, and a third generation of autonomous mobile welding robots offered in wheeled and legged configurations. The core pitch is addressing chronic shortages of skilled welders in Chinese manufacturing by letting a single AI-equipped robot handle the non-standard, small-batch welding jobs that traditional teach-and-playback robots struggle with.
The company has attracted strategic investment from HD Hyundai Robotics (a division of South Korea's HD Hyundai group) alongside Welight Capital, who jointly backed a Series A extension round, followed by a Series B round in mid-2026 raising several hundred million yuan for continued R&D and manufacturing scale-up. Commercially, 3Srobotics counts China Railway, Baosteel, State Grid, CRRC, SAIC Motor, and HD Hyundai Heavy Industries among its customers, with a 2025 order from HD Hyundai Heavy Industries' shipyards worth tens of millions of yuan. Cumulative shipments have approached 10,000 welding robot units, with 2025 revenue near 100 million yuan and 2026 revenue projected to exceed several hundred million yuan as second-generation smart welding robots reach large-scale shipment.
3Srobotics can be reached through its Shanghai marketing office and sales team at [email protected], and its welding robots are primarily sold to heavy manufacturing sectors including shipbuilding, steel, rail transport, and automotive production in China.

3Srobotics Secures Hundreds of Millions in Series B Funding for Smart Welding Solutions
3Srobotics, a company specializing in embodied intelligent robotics for industrial manufacturing, announced the completion of a Series B funding round on July 9, raising hundreds of millions. The round was led by Shanghai Semiconductor Investment and Jinqiao Fund, with participation from several venture capital firms. The funding aims to enhance their smart welding robotics capabilities and expand production capacity. The significance of this investment lies in addressing the critical shortage of skilled welders in China, where the average age of registered welders exceeds 45. With an estimated shortfall of millions of welding engineers by 2025, 3Srobotics' technology aims to improve welding quality, efficiency, and stability. The smart welding robot market is projected to reach hundreds of billions in the next decade, highlighting the urgent need for automation in this sector. Looking ahead, 3Srobotics plans to leverage its smart welding robots to introduce a range of industrial automation products, including grinding, cutting, assembly, and handling robots. The company aims to penetrate the entire manufacturing process, with a revenue target of several hundred million by 2026. No further timeline was disclosed at the time of publication.

"Shengshi Weisheng secures hundreds of millions in Series B funding for its smart welding brain model."
3Srobotics, a company specializing in embodied intelligent robots for industrial manufacturing, has successfully raised several hundred million yuan in its Series B funding round. The investment was led by Shanghai Semiconductor Investment and Jinqiao Fund, with participation from Zero One Venture Capital, New Ding Capital, Zhongguan Dinghua, and existing shareholder Weiguang Venture Capital. The funds will be utilized to upgrade their intelligent welding systems, expand manufacturing capacity, and enhance their research and development and market service teams, aiming to accelerate the nationwide deployment of their products across various industries. Founded in 2020, 3Srobotics received national high-tech enterprise certification in 2023 and was recognized as a specialized and innovative small enterprise in Shanghai in 2024. This funding round marks a significant step in the company’s growth, leveraging its proprietary "intelligent brain and motor control system" to advance the development of scalable industrial-grade intelligent robots, particularly in the welding sector. The company focuses on addressing the growing labor shortage in welding, a critical process in industrial production that faces high risks and technical demands. With an aging workforce and a projected shortfall of millions of welding engineers by 2025, 3Srobotics aims to fill this gap with its AI-driven robots that can autonomously adapt to complex welding tasks, significantly improving efficiency and quality. 3Srobotics plans to expand its product offerings beyond welding to include grinding, cutting, assembly, and logistics, striving to create a comprehensive ecosystem of intelligent industrial robots that can transform manufacturing processes.
