Tiangong International’s Cemented Carbide Tools Business Seeks Sharp Growth in Q1 | Landmark Robotics Orders Achieve Deep Deployment

Since the first quarter of last year, upstream raw material prices — including tungsten concentrate and tungsten carbide — have continued their strong upward trend, placing widespread pressure on industry costs. Against this backdrop of rising raw material prices, Tiangong International’s cemented carbide tools division leveraged its high-end product mix, large-scale cost controls, and efficient sales network to achieve rapid growth in both sales and collections during the first quarter of 2026. The increase exceeded 300% compared to the same period in 2025, demonstrating strong operational resilience and market expansion momentum. This counter-trend breakthrough signals that the company’s high-end tools are accelerating their share gain on the import substitution track.

Deepening Presence in Robotics: Stable Application and Scaled Penetration in Core Processes

Tiangong International’s cemented carbide tools division continues to deepen collaboration with market leaders in high-end application fields, achieving significant progress in the robotics manufacturing sector. The company’s products have completed relevant system qualifications and have been fully integrated into the supply system of SIASUN Robot & Automation Co., Ltd. (Shenyang New Song Robot). A subsidiary of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, SIASUN is a leading player in China’s robotics industry, covering industrial robots, mobile robots, collaborative robots, and intelligent equipment across multiple high-precision fields.

Through its channel partners, Tiangong International’s cemented carbide tools division has completed multiple rounds of process matching optimization and on-site application validation with end customers. At present, a wide range of milling and drilling tools have replaced imports in the stable processing of critical components such as robotic structural parts, precision reducers, and servo motor housings. Some core process tool packages have entered volume delivery. In terms of precision control and machining efficiency, Tiangong’s products have reached internationally advanced levels, with certain metrics on par with leading imported brands. The related products have entered a sustained volume ramp-up phase, establishing a benchmark application with significant industry influence. Tiangong tools are accelerating their evolution from isolated project trials to full-line process integration in robotics, further strengthening their position in the high-end robotics manufacturing supply chain.

Building a High-End Market Benchmark Matrix to Drive Strategic Upgrade of the Tools Business

This systemic breakthrough in the robotics field reflects the comprehensive competitiveness enhancement of Tiangong International’s cemented carbide tools division: the proven performance stability of high-end products under demanding conditions, a markedly improved ability to deliver complex process solutions, and seamless integration from customer qualification to volume delivery. In the next phase, Tiangong International’s cemented carbide tools division will continue to strengthen the synergy between materials R&D, tool geometry design, and application support, deepen end-service capabilities in robotics and intelligent manufacturing, accelerate the iterative upgrade of high-end products, and expand the localization share of critical processes. As China’s manufacturing sector moves toward high-end, intelligent, and green development, Tiangong tools are providing reliable support for advanced manufacturing — backed by stronger technical capabilities and more mature channel coverage.
