JLT, an AI-based robotics company, has attracted 23 billion won in Series B investment from domestic and foreign investors including Stonebridge Ventures, Partners Investment, SJ Investment Partners, and Millennium New Horizons.
Based on this investment, JLT plans to enhance its existing welding automation solution and develop a next-generation robot automation solution that integrates welding inspection and vision inspection to secure global customers in various industries such as electric vehicles, shipbuilding, offshore wind power generation, and plant construction.
Through this investment, JLT has also begun developing an automated robot solution for recycling waste batteries (battery disassembly) along with the advancement of existing welding automation solutions. This solution is a technology that can completely eliminate the risk of electric shock and maximize work efficiency, and a prototype is scheduled to be introduced to the market within this year.
JLT is developing an automated robot solution to improve the safety of waste battery dismantling work and maximize work efficiency, and plans to lead innovation in the recycling industry through this. A JLT official said, “We will continue to conduct research and development to secure both safety and efficiency through automation technology in the waste battery recycling market.”
Jeong Hyeon-woo, CEO of JLT, said, “This Series B investment will be an important stepping stone for building an AI-based robotics system and advancing into various global markets, including electric vehicle manufacturing,” and added, “We will continue to achieve sustainable growth by expanding new businesses, such as advancing welding automation technology and waste battery recycling solutions.”
