SHENZHEN, China —— Recently, Shenzhen Leadus Technology Industry Co., Ltd. (LEADUS), a national high-tech enterprise focusing on the R&D and smart manufacturing of fully tempered vacuum insulated glass (VIG), announced that it has officially entered into a strategic partnership with Rockwell Automation (NYSE: ROK), one of the global leaders in industrial automation, informatics, and digital transformation.

Focusing on vacuum insulated glass (VIG)—a high-impact, low-carbon application scenario—the two companies will drive deep cooperation in three core areas: digital production line upgrades, artificial intelligence (AI)-driven quality optimization, and globalized manufacturing capability enhancement. By introducing world-class digital and automation technologies, LEADUS will further deepen the application of its "AI Agent + MES" smart manufacturing management system, driving the manufacturing of fully tempered VIG toward higher efficiency and intelligence, and contributing to the green and low-carbon transformation of global buildings.

Introducing Global Resources to Accelerate the "AI + Smart Manufacturing" Breakthrough

Against the backdrop of growing demand for building energy conservation, vacuum insulated glass, as a next-generation low-carbon and energy-saving material, offers superior thermal and acoustic insulation compared to traditional double-glazed glass, demonstrating broad application prospects. As one of the few innovative enterprises globally that possesses both VIG product capabilities and complete automated equipment supply lines, LEADUS has successfully broken through core technologies such as low-temperature sealing. With the rapid expansion of its production scale and the swift growth of its overseas business, the enterprise has set higher standards for production efficiency, fine product quality control, and cross-regional collaborative operations.

Through this collaboration, LEADUS will leverage Rockwell Automation’s profound technical accumulation and global practical experience in industrial automation, digitalization, and cross-industry smart manufacturing to fully advance the digital iteration of its own VIG production system:

• Digital Production Line Upgrades: Optimizing production processes and enhancing operational efficiency across LEADUS's existing continuous production lines to build industry-leading smart demonstration lines.

• AI-Driven Quality Optimization: Deeply integrating AI data analytics with intelligent model applications to strengthen real-time quality control in critical process stages, thereby boosting product consistency and overall yield rates.

• A Leap in Globalized Capabilities: Utilizing Rockwell Automation's global resource network—including digital simulation design, global supply chain collaboration, global manufacturing delivery, and global remote operations—to empower LEADUS's transnational operations and accelerate the promotion and localization of its fully tempered VIG manufacturing capabilities in overseas markets.

Joining Forces to Build a Greener Future for Architecture

Looking ahead, LEADUS will continue to uphold its innovation-driven development philosophy, deepen horizontal integration and collaboration with top global partners, and apply digital and smart manufacturing capabilities to more low-carbon scenarios, achieving more efficient and sustainable development in the global market.
