Rizon 4

Overview

An adaptive robotics company founded in 2016, headquartered in Shanghai with operations in the US and Singapore, led by founder and CEO Shiquan Wang. Its 7-axis force-controlled Rizon arms (2019) and force-controlled Moonlight parallel robot (2023) automate contact-rich work such as polishing, precision insertion and cable assembly. Flexiv became a unicorn in 2022 and in March 2026 took a strategic investment led by Invus to scale globally. In Japan, Kurabo has sold Rizon since January 2025. Its founder also co-founded Noematrix.

Strengths

  • Joint torque sensing with high-precision force control
  • Rizon and Moonlight are CE and ETL certified
  • Track record in polishing, insertion and assembly
  • Kurabo's sales network and 3D-vision integration in Japan
