Linkerbot Beijing Technology reported that it has shipped a cumulative total of 10,000 dexterous robotic hands and raised $150 million in funding since April 2025. The company stated that its current production exceeds 1,000 high-degree-of-freedom dexterous hands per month and that it holds more than 80 percent of the global market for high-DoF dexterous hands, based on its own estimates.
The company’s product portfolio includes the Linker Hand series, which covers models ranging from six to 42 degrees of freedom and incorporates different actuation technologies. Linkerbot said that its O6 model is designed to improve durability while reducing manufacturing costs, and that the L30 model is intended for applications requiring high positional repeatability, which the company measures at ±0.2 millimeters. According to the company, these products are supported by in-house developments such as modular joint components, proprietary polymer materials, and an integrated sensing system.
Linkerbot also reported that its hardware is complemented by software platforms, including the Open TeleDex teleoperation system and the LinkerSkillNet software framework, which are designed to support the deployment of robotic manipulation functions. The company stated that its highest monthly shipment volume has exceeded 4,000 units.
According to the release, Linkerbot supplies dexterous hand technology to industrial and robotics companies, including Samsung and Siemens, and its products are used in research settings at institutions such as Stanford University, the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, the University of Cambridge, and Tsinghua University. The company has also been included in the Forbes Asia “100 To Watch” list and The Information’s “50 Most Promising Startups of 2025,” as cited in the announcement.
Linkerbot said it operates a Scholar Program aimed at collaboration with academic researchers and is developing an open ecosystem referred to as “LinkerWorld,” which the company describes as part of its efforts related to embodied intelligence research and development.
