<aside> 💡 Founded in Tokyo in 2018, Lebo Robotics Inc. provides an innovative solution for the maintenance of wind turbine blades. The company is developing a unique business using advanced robotic technology to solve industry challenges such as labor shortages and high costs.
The core technology is the "Blade Maintenance Robot," described as a world-first solution that enables safe and efficient high-altitude work. This robot has the ability to automatically perform multiple processes from inspection to repair. It is stated that the repair robot, in particular, is equipped with advanced technology that recognizes surface shapes with a 3D scanner and performs sanding, cleaning, putty application, and painting. Furthermore, the company demonstrates foresight by engaging in "smart maintenance" through its "AI Blade Analysis Service," which analyzes inspection data to propose optimal maintenance timing.
Based on these technical strengths, the company provides maintenance services to wind turbine owners using their robots and explains that they are also considering full automation and the sale of the robots themselves in the future. It is said that there are no domestic competitors and only a handful of companies worldwide that offer commercial services, which suggests high market potential. The company's vision is to achieve a "Comfortable Life, Sustainable Future," and with an existing German base, they are planning to expand their operations to other parts of Europe and the United States while fully launching their services in Japan. Further development is anticipated.（AS）
