RS Automation Begins Paid-in Capital Increase Subscription... Investing in Establishing a Standard for Korean Robot Platforms View original image

RS Automation, a leading company in the industrial motion control sector, led by CEO Kang Deokhyun, will begin accepting subscriptions for a paid-in capital increase through a rights offering followed by a public offering of forfeited shares, starting December 4.


RS Automation previously set the final issue price at 9,940 won per share. This capital increase involves the issuance of a total of 3,536,700 new shares, raising 35,154,790,000 won.


The subscription for existing shareholders will be held from December 4 to 5, while the public offering for forfeited shares will take place on December 9 and 10. The new shares are scheduled to be listed on December 24.


The company plans to allocate 15.8 billion won of the funds raised to research and development expenses. This includes the development of an AI control software platform, the creation of an edge computing-based drive platform, and the development of on-machine, humanoid, and defense drive modules.


Notably, RS Automation is the only company in Korea to have internalized the full stack of physical AI-based motion control, developing everything from high-level controllers to servo drives, motors, and sensors with its own technology. The company aims to establish a standard for Korean robot platforms by enabling integrated management from design to operation within its AI control software platform.


Furthermore, by incorporating edge computing technology, RS Automation is enhancing core technologies such as robot motion foundry, integrated drive modules (smart actuators), capacitive encoders, and smart motor controllers (SMC). Alongside on-machine products, the company plans to actively respond to next-generation equipment markets, including humanoid robots and defense, which require high speed and precision.
