Core Viewpoint - Liken Technology (00558) has seen a significant stock increase of over 54% this week, driven by a strategic partnership to develop magnesium alloy humanoid robots [1] Company Summary - Liken Technology's stock rose by 14.19% to HKD 5.31, with a trading volume of HKD 348 million [1] - The company has signed a strategic cooperation agreement with four firms specializing in magnesium alloys and humanoid robot development, initiating a joint R&D project [1] - The project focuses on integrated innovation in "materials-structure-process," aiming to overcome traditional robots' weight and strength limitations [1] Industry Summary - According to Dongwu Securities, the adoption rate of magnesium alloys in humanoid robots is expected to surpass that in the automotive sector [1] - The reasons include: 1. ToB scenarios often occur in closed environments with lower corrosion resistance requirements, reducing the disadvantages of magnesium alloys [1] 2. In ToC scenarios, humanoid robot components are more refined and lighter than automotive parts, allowing for the use of smaller semi-solid forming machines [1] 3. Magnesium alloys offer advantages in shock absorption, electromagnetic shielding, and heat dissipation, making them more suitable for humanoid robots compared to aluminum alloys [1]
