At the 140th Canton Fair, a service robot zone was set up during the first phase, "Advanced Manufacturing." Cleaning and delivery robots carried out live operating demonstrations along the exhibition hall corridors, and humanoid platforms, dexterous hands, wearable exoskeletons, and inspection robots for high-risk environments were exhibited together at the same venue. According to the report, international procurement teams no longer look only at scripted demonstrations; instead, they focus on whether robots can stably handle full-shift commercial and industrial workloads. This edition of the Canton Fair has an exhibition area of 520,000 square meters, features 17 emerging industry exhibition zones, and has more than 11,000 participating enterprises, 64% of which adopt industrial internet or AI solutions.
