Yintaili Technology, a high-tech company based in Tianjin's Xiqing district, has launched a domestically produced lidar sensor to improve the safety and efficiency of semiconductor automated material handling systems (AMHS).
The F80 sensor, manufactured at the company's 5,000-square-meter facility in Xiqing, offers a high-performance solution for critical perception components that previously relied on long-distance supply chains.
The F80 is a compact sensor featuring a 50Hz scanning frequency, 30 mm detection accuracy, and a range beyond 10 meters. It achieves over 99.5 percent recognition accuracy for black light-absorbing materials and highly reflective metals — technical challenges that have limited existing solutions.
The sensor's mean time between failures is designed to exceed 40,000 hours, with a target miss rate below 0.01 percent in high-speed simulations.
Yintaili conducted rigorous validation tests in real-world cleanrooms in partnership with leading AMHS integrators, completing full-cycle testing from sample installation to 24/7 reliability assessments. The company credits its Xiqing base for enabling rapid local responses and zero-delay technical support.
Founded in Beijing in 2012, Yintaili relocated to Xiqing in 2018 and expanded into a dedicated R&D and production hub in 2024. The facility now produces 100,000 sensors and 10,000 intelligent traffic products each year.
Future plans include developing multi-beam lidar and expanding into smart transportation and low-speed autonomous driving, with the goal of establishing "YINTAILI" as a globally recognized brand for industrial-grade sensors and bringing more Xiqing-made products to the world.
