Lingdu’s .6M X-Human Robot Deal Suspended Due to US Tariffs – News and Statistics

Lingdu’s $1.6M X-Human Robot Deal Suspended Due to US Tariffs – News and Statistics

May 3, 2025

The suspension of a $1.6 million deal for X-Human robots by Lingdu Intelligent Technology’s first US client underscores the challenges faced by Chinese manufacturers amid the ongoing US-China trade tensions. The deal, according to South China Morning Post, was halted as the parties await potential changes in US tariff policies.

Lingdu, a leader in the production of specialized cleaning robots for skyscrapers and solar panels, has been affected by the US’s imposition of tariffs totaling 145% on Chinese imports this year. Despite the trade hurdles, Lingdu’s products have found markets in over 20 countries, including Europe and the Middle East. Their flagship product, the Lingkong robot, has been deployed on iconic structures such as the Guangzhou International Finance Centre and the Jumeirah Emirates Towers Hotel in Dubai.

With its advanced features, including the ability to clean up to 2,000 square meters of wall space per day, the Lingkong robot offers triple the efficiency of human cleaners. Its design incorporates suction cups and wheels to navigate surfaces, and a sewage filtration system that allows it to operate efficiently with minimal water usage. The company continues to push forward with its global expansion plans, leveraging the robot’s capabilities even as it navigates the complexities of international trade policies.
