KENROBOTECH CORPORATION

KEN ROBOTECH CORPORATION is a Japanese robotics company specializing in labor-saving automation solutions for construction sites. Founded in 2013 by CEO Tatsuya Manabe, the company develops the TOMOROBO series of collaborative autonomous robots designed to reduce physical burden on workers and increase on-site productivity.
