A three-dimensional inspection matrix addresses industry pain points
The three generations of products on display establish a comprehensive "land-air" inspection system. The third-generation explosion-proof quadruped robot, the X3 Stable, leverages a unique dynamic balancing algorithm to overcome obstacles up to 200mm and wade through 300mm of water, enabling 24-hour all-terrain inspections at CNPC oilfields. Explosion-proof wheeled robots, with a matrix of high, medium, and low protection levels, cover diverse scenarios from plant areas to pipeline corridors. The new explosion-proof rail-mounted robot extends rail inspections to high-risk areas for the first time. Its IP66 protection and multi-explosion-proof design allow for stable operation at an altitude of 10 meters along a pre-set track. Equipped with 468 intelligent algorithms (including meter recognition and leak detection), it triples the inspection efficiency of a single piece of equipment, making it particularly suitable for areas traditionally difficult to reach, such as reactor towers and tank tops.
Scenario-Based Breakthroughs Resulting from 15 Years of Technological Accumulation
As a nationally recognized "little giant" specializing in innovative technologies, Qiteng has been deeply engaged in the explosion-proof robotics field for 15 years, having delivered over 1,000 units to over 40 countries. The core breakthroughs of this new rail-mounted robot lie in three key aspects: lightweight design (18% lighter than competing products) enabling low-load rail operation; modular design enabling rapid assembly and disassembly for maintenance; and collaborative capabilities enabling real-time data exchange with ground-based quadruped and wheeled robots. During a live demonstration, the rail-mounted robot used infrared thermal imaging and gas sensing to locate a pipeline leak within 10 seconds and simultaneously directed ground-based robots to address the situation, demonstrating its integrated "air, ground, and space" emergency response capabilities.
Immersive Experience Enhanced at the Smart Expo
During this year's Smart Expo, Qiteng not only offered live demonstrations of its new products but also set up a "High-Risk Scenario Digital Twin Cabin," where visitors could control the quadruped robot through a simulated oil field through VR, experiencing the bionic charm of its stable traversal on slopes of ≤30°. For customers unable to attend the event, the company simultaneously launched a multi-platform livestream, disassembling the rail-hanging robot in real time, detailing technical details such as its explosion-proof sealing process and the track docking accuracy (±2mm). Notably, Chongqing Metro Line 9's "Smart Expo Special Train" has launched, allowing passengers to preview Qi Teng's new products through dynamic posters within the carriages. During the exhibition, passengers can take Line 6 to Guobo Center Station for direct access to the exhibition hall.
"Our goal isn't just to build robots, but to make robots the guardians of industrial safety," Qi Teng Robot's CTO revealed at the pre-launch event. The rail-hanging robot has already secured orders from companies such as CNOOC and BASF. A single unit can replace eight inspectors, and is expected to reduce an enterprise's average annual operating and maintenance costs by 40%. With the Smart Expo's "Intelligent Robots" section taking center stage, Qi Teng's 3D inspection solution is providing a "safer, smarter" Chinese answer to high-risk industries worldwide.
