Company patents

SHANGHAI FLEXIV ROBOTICS TECHNOLOGY CO., LTD.

SHANGHAI FLEXIV ROBOTICS TECHNOLOGY CO., LTD. surprisingly shows a highly concentrated patent strategy, with 79.2% of its portfolio in Manipulators & Robotics, which saw an explosive 850.0% YoY growth in 2024. Despite this core focus, the company's patenting in related manufacturing categories like Gearing & Transmissions, Force / Pressure Measurement, and Couplings & Brakes (Mechanical) experienced a complete 100.0% YoY decline in 2025, indicating a significant shift away from these areas, while its computing-related categories like Image Processing and Computer Vision also saw substantial declines in 2024 and so far in 2026.
