Accelerating Dexterous Hand Ecosystem Development, Griply Partners with Linkerbot at CES 2026
LAS VEGAS, NV – January 6, 2026 – The 2026 Consumer Electronics Show (CES 2026) officially commenced today in Las Vegas. As the world's largest and most influential event for consumer electronics and cutting-edge technology, often hailed as the "global barometer for technology trends," CES not only signals future technological directions but also serves as a core platform for global tech leaders to showcase new technologies, products, and paradigms. Griply, together with Linkerbot—a global leader in dexterous hand platforms—made a significant appearance at CES 2026, presenting the full Linker Hand series of dexterous hands and other products.

In recent years, as the "barometer" of the global technology industry, CES has unveiled numerous conceptual new technologies and ideas, filled with boundless imagination for an ideal future. As the world enters a new historical cycle where artificial intelligence and embodied intelligence are reshaping entire industries and deeply integrating with human life, CES has also adapted, signaling a shift "from showcasing the future to solving the present." It has evolved into a new stage for technology implementation, product testing, and paradigm creation. This year's CES brought together over 4,500 leading companies from around the world to collectively showcase the global innovation landscape and outline the blueprint for future technology.

Additionally, the Linker Workbench was exhibited at CES. Equipped with dual robotic arms and Linker Hand L20 high-DoF dexterous hands, the Linker Workbench can autonomously complete the assembly of robotic arm modules. It not only represents a prime example of the practical application of dexterous hands in future scenarios like flexible manufacturing but also serves as a key foundational capability for the "LinkerWorld" strategy. Currently, Linkerbot has completed innovative explorations in "dexterous hands assembling robotic arms" and "dexterous hands assembling dexterous hands." The new "LinkerWorld" strategy extends "self-manufacturing" to "self-evolution," aiming to build an ecosystem where robots continuously learn, autonomously evolve, and even create new skills.

As a global leader in dexterous hand platforms, Linkerbot focuses on the full industry chain centered on dexterous hands, dedicated to building robust hardware and software platform capabilities, and insists on maintaining global leadership in product innovation and performance. At this CES, Griply and Linkerbot showcased the full range of Linker Hand series products. Leading the global market with exceptional performance, the Linker Hand series offers a wide range of degrees of freedom (DoF) from 11 to 42, adapting to all scenarios in embodied intelligence applications. The entire product line covers all transmission solutions, including direct drive, linkage, and tendon-driven mechanisms, with performance and lifespan leading the industry. Among them, the high-DoF dexterous hand L20 series is currently the world's only high-DoF dexterous hand product series with mass production exceeding a thousand units.

Griply also showcased the Linker Hand L20 Industrial Edition at CES, demonstrating the excellence of Linkerbot's "Industrial Master" dexterous hand series. All products in the "Industrial Master" series are equipped with the LinkerMotor, independently designed and developed by Linkerbot, achieving a highly integrated drive-control system. Utilizing a "brushless motor + ball screw" solution, the LinkerMotor achieves a drive efficiency of up to 90%, more than double that of traditional industry products. The screw end thrust reaches 200N, with a tested lifespan exceeding one million cycles. This super actuator represents Linkerbot's excellent design, R&D, and production capabilities in key hardware. Linkerbot is also advancing the revolutionary process of "substituting steel with plastic," accelerating supply chain upgrades for components such as joint modules, thereby driving bottom-up, industry-wide hardware upgrades for dexterous hands.
