Guozi Helps Hithium Build an Industry 4.0 Intelligent Model Factory

The facility spans 480,000 square feet with an investment of nearly $200 million and is planned to have an annual production capacity of 10GWh of battery modules and systems.

Recently, Hithium's manufacturing plant in Texas, USA, has achieved "mass production and delivery." Guozi Robotics provided the factory with a full-scenario integrated flexible production and logistics handling solution, comprehensively supporting the construction of Hithium's plant-wide intelligent logistics system. The facility spans 480,000 square feet with an investment of nearly $200 million and is planned to have an annual production capacity of 10GWh of battery modules and systems.


Guozi Robotics has supplied Hithium with over a hundred intelligent logistics robots, including reach truck AGVs, mini stacker robots, underride lifting robots, and heavy-duty transport robots. Additionally, it has provided equipment such as high-bay racking, electrically controlled buffer racks, overhead cranes, and automatic doors, while implementing multiple equipment linkage upgrades.

Leveraging a multi-navigation fusion technology that integrates vision and LiDAR, Guozi Robotics' reach truck AGV achieves a load capacity of 1.2 tons and a lifting height of 7 meters, while maintaining a high docking accuracy of ±10 mm for storage positions. It can automatically interface with material carts, product fixture carts, and production line machinery, performing tasks such as material distribution along the production line and product assembly within the line. Additionally, the heavy-duty transport robot boasts a load capacity of 60 tons and a positioning accuracy of ±10 mm. All robots in this project series have obtained UL certification.

In an innovative approach, Guozi Robotics adopted an "integrated delivery" model to overcome numerous challenges previously faced in large-scale overseas intelligent logistics projects, such as cargo transfer and engineering commissioning. The company conducted integrated debugging and testing of logistics robots, equipment, production lines, and docking systems in China, following the on-site planning process. Upon completion, the entire logistics system—along with partners' modules, PACK production lines, and containerized prefabricated cabin production lines—was packaged and shipped as a whole to the overseas project site, ready for immediate deployment. This approach shortened the overall implementation cycle by 30% compared to similar projects, enabling rapid commissioning.

Since launching its global operations in 2016, Guozi Robotics has expanded its business to multiple countries and regions across North America, South America, Europe, East Asia, Southeast Asia, and Central Asia. The company has delivered large-scale application cases in over ten industries, including e-commerce, automotive manufacturing, construction machinery, and retail, accumulating extensive overseas application experience.

Model TR1 Tru-Trac

Model TR1 Tru-Trac

The Model TR1 Tru-Trac® linear measurement solution is a versatile option for tracking velocity, position, or distance over a wide variety of surfaces. An integrated encoder, measuring wheel, and spring-loaded torsion arm in one, compact unit, the Model TR1 is easy to install. The spring-loaded torsion arm offers adjustable torsion load, allowing the Model TR1 to be mounted in almost any orientation - even upside-down. The threaded shaft on the pivot axis is field reversible, providing mounting access from either side. With operating speeds up to 3000 feet per minute, a wide variety of configuration options - including multiple wheel material options - and a housing made from a durable, conductive composite material that minimizes static buildup, the Model TR1 Tru-Trac® is the ideal solution for countless applications.
