Inovance Technology: Driving Down Costs through Technological Innovation and a Robust Safety Ecosystem

Inovance Technology is navigating the challenges of rising costs in the industrial automation sector through a dual approach of technological innovation and safety ecosystem development. As we enter 2026, the industry is experiencing significant price hikes driven by the continuous increase in the costs of key raw materials such as chips, copper, and aluminum. Rather than solely relying on price adjustments, Inovance is focusing on product quality upgrades and technological iterations to effectively mitigate cost pressures while maintaining high product performance and service quality. This strategy is particularly evident in their advancements in high-performance motor technologies and applications, underscoring the company’s commitment to customer value.

Product Iteration to Mitigate Cost Fluctuations

Inovance prioritizes technological innovation as a crucial pathway to overcoming challenges. They aim to enhance efficiency and reduce costs through rapid product iterations and comprehensive optimization across their supply chain. The effectiveness of these upgrades is especially pronounced in the high-performance motor sector. Inovance emphasizes “improving quality and efficiency, conserving resources, and ensuring dual safety” in its approach, leveraging core competencies such as cost-effectiveness, durability, precision, and energy efficiency.

In response to industrial demand, Inovance has optimized motor design by utilizing concentrated winding technology, advanced insulation materials, and new winding processes. This has resulted in a 12% increase in motor slot fill rates, outperforming leading global competitors and achieving industry-leading standards. Additionally, these enhancements have allowed for a 16.3% reduction in motor size while maintaining performance, which benefits various sectors including robotics, automotive production lines, semiconductor industries, medical devices, and photovoltaic equipment.

Challenges in sectors like paper manufacturing, chemicals, and ports arise when using AC690V motors, which are often bulky and heavy. The high voltage peaks associated with AC690V can damage motor insulation, shortening their lifespan. To address this, Inovance has developed low-voltage flat wire technology with high PDIV insulation, resulting in a 15% improvement in PDIV compared to top competitors, and a 30% increase in lifespan, ensuring reliable operation in extreme conditions.

In the field of low-altitude flight, there are stringent weight requirements for motor systems to maximize the range of aircraft. The industry aims for a peak power density of ≥7.8 kW/kg, with thermal management being a key focus area. Inovance has introduced an embedded wind-liquid hybrid cooling technology that significantly enhances motor cooling efficiency, achieving a peak power density of ≥8 kW/kg, aligning with international standards.

Building a Safety Ecosystem

Inovance has introduced a comprehensive solution philosophy known as “improving quality and efficiency, conserving resources, and ensuring dual safety.” This framework enhances production efficiency and product quality while saving energy, space, labor, and materials, all while ensuring the safety of equipment and personnel. Specifically, this approach focuses on increasing production efficiency and product quality while reducing material use, labor, space, and energy consumption, safeguarding customer assets and employee safety throughout the product lifecycle.

To combat challenges in the mining sector, such as outdated equipment, low automation levels, and frequent safety incidents, Inovance has provided a full-stack intelligent solution to facilitate a “safe, efficient, and green” transformation in the Central Asian mining industry. The InoMine smart mining solution platform, developed for the global mining market, is built on an industrial internet architecture, creating a comprehensive ecosystem for perception, interconnection, analysis, decision-making, and control. This deep integration of automation and digital technology aims to redefine mining production and operational models, offering extensive technical support to the industry.

In high-risk operational scenarios, Inovance motors have achieved significant safety advancements. The innovative InoTS series magnetic drive intelligent control flexible system has garnered the “Most Competitive Innovative Product in Direct Drive” award for 2025, thanks to its revolutionary technology and application value. This system integrates Inovance’s popular products, including magnetic drive rail, collaborative robots, servo modules, vision systems, and more. One of the core technologies of the InoTS system is its unique dual-action clamping technology, which allows for rapid task switching without altering hardware configurations, thus enhancing production flexibility and increasing capacity by over 20%.

Last year, Inovance received two functional safety certification certificates from TÜV SÜD, a globally recognized certification body. This marked the first time an industrial control system in China achieved production line-level functional safety certification, signifying a milestone breakthrough in high-end industrial safety in the country. The safety system of Inovance’s iFA platform complies with multiple international standards, making it the first industrial control system in China to receive IEC 61131-6 international standard functional safety certification, reaching the highest safety level of PL e/Cat.4/SIL 3, aligning with global advanced benchmarks. This system encompasses core products such as the EVO1000EF safety controller and the Hi50 series distributed safety I/O systems, meeting the stringent demands for millisecond-level safety response and complex networking in high-end industries like automotive manufacturing, semiconductors, and lithium batteries.

By adhering to the values of improving quality and efficiency while ensuring dual safety, Inovance deeply integrates product quality and safety assurance throughout the entire product development and production process, continuously enhancing the value of their services.
