"Your trusted partner in automation!"
China-based automation integrator (est. 2005); assembly automation, leak testing, and traceability systems; ISO 9001 certified.
Upton Automation Systems Co., Ltd. is a high-tech intelligent equipment group enterprise headquartered in Guangzhou, China, founded in 2005. The company initially focused on introducing CTS leak testers to the Chinese market while simultaneously developing independent core leak testing technologies and devices. Over more than 20 years of development, Upton has evolved into a comprehensive automation solutions provider with annual revenues exceeding RMB 300 million as of 2021.
The company's primary business lines span three major domains: assembly automation, test technology, and leak detection. In leak testing, Upton holds proprietary technologies covering air pressure leak testing, helium tracer leak testing, and electrolyte leak testing — the latter being particularly critical for new energy vehicle battery manufacturing. Its flagship MSQ2000 Electrolyte Leak Test System addresses stringent requirements for EV battery cells, where any electrolyte leakage is unacceptable.
Upton serves five key industries: automotive (body components, powertrain assemblies, EV battery packs), consumer goods, electronic devices, battery manufacturing, and other sectors including data centres. The company's assembly automation division integrates robotic cells, conveyance systems, and vision-guided pick-and-place for high-mix, high-volume production lines. Its test technology portfolio includes functional test rigs and automated end-of-line quality verification stations.
Operationally, Upton employs lean project management through a self-developed project management platform that covers the full lifecycle from requirements through on-site commissioning. The company holds ISO 9001 certification and has its quality policy aligned with aerospace and automotive electronics standards. Engineering capabilities span mechanical, electrical, control, software, and AI disciplines.
The current registered address is Bldg-1, No.19, Yunpu 1st Road, Huangpu District, Guangzhou, Guangdong, China 510530. The company was originally associated with a Kunshan entity but now operates from Guangzhou as its primary base. Sales contact is [email protected].
