During the first phase of the 140th Canton Fair, AI has emerged as a new highlight in Chinese manufacturing's push into global markets. At the booth of Timekettle, AI interpreter earbuds support real-time two-way translation across 52 languages and 106 accents, helping Chinese and foreign buyers communicate with ease. MeBotX IntelligentTechnology is showcasing AI exoskeletons and smart patellar straps that read gait, knee trajectory and impact force data to deliver real-time support for sports, hiking and stair climbing, with products already sold in Southeast Asia, Europe, the United States, Japan and other markets.

AI is also being woven into the entire foreign-trade workflow. yMaoBao, drawing on customs data covering more than 100 countries and regions, has upgraded its AI agent to help companies search for clients, analyze markets, manage contracts and follow up on reminders. ComiComi's documentation assistant can automatically generate international trade documents and review letter of credit clauses, lowering the barrier to starting an export business and enabling small and medium-sized enterprises to explore overseas markets at lower cost. Many exhibitors said overseas buyers are paying closer attention to AI products.

Traditional equipment is likewise expanding its reach through AI. MAXHUB Conference Flat Panels serve multinational collaboration and classrooms with AI noise reduction, long-range voice pickup and smart teaching functions. Jiuan Intelligent Technology uses image-to-text technology to boost the efficiency of security video retrieval and has extended it to scenarios such as hunting and flame detection. GSK CNC applies AI and digital twins to machine-tool trajectory processing to improve machining accuracy.

From AI interpreter earbuds to CNC systems, AI is moving from standalone product features toward integrated capabilities spanning R&D, production, marketing and services, becoming a new bridge linking Chinese manufacturing to the global market.

广交会上的“AI生意经”
第140届广交会第一期现场,AI成为中国制造出海的新亮点。在时空壶展位,AI同传耳机支持52种语言、106种口音实时互译,帮助中外客商自然沟通;迈宝智能的AI外骨骼和智能髌骨带,则通过识别步态、膝盖运动轨迹和冲击力等数据,为运动、登山和上下楼提供实时支撑,产品已销往东南亚、欧美、日本等市场。
AI也正嵌入外贸全流程。外贸宝依托覆盖100多个国家和地区的海关数据,升级AI智能体,帮助企业搜索客户、分析市场、管理合同和跟进提醒;尘海互动的单证助手可自动生成外贸单证、梳理信用证条款,降低外贸创业门槛,也让中小企业以更低成本开拓海外市场。不少参展商表示,海外采购商更关注AI产品。
传统设备同样借AI拓展边界。MAXHUB会议平板以AI降噪、远距拾音和智能教学能力服务跨国办公与课堂;九安智能通过“图生文”技术提升安防视频检索效率,并延伸至打猎、火焰识别等场景;广州数控则将AI和数字孪生用于机床轨迹处理,提升加工精度。
从翻译耳机到数控系统,AI正从单一产品功能走向覆盖研发、生产、营销和服务的综合能力,成为中国制造连接全球市场的新桥梁。
