Acknowledgement | Tribute to the Guardians: Shanghai Medical Device Testing Institute, Powering the Rise of Domestic High-End Medical Equipment.
Under the strategic guidance of the national "14th Five-Year Plan" to promote independent innovation in high-end medical equipment, domestic surgical robots are experiencing a historic breakthrough. Recently, the Puncture Robotic HAIRO hair transplant robot successfully obtained the Class III medical device certification from the National Medical Products Administration (NMPA), becoming the first domestically produced AI hair transplant robot to be approved. This milestone is inseparable from Shanghai Medical Device Testing Institute 's full support and responsibility.

Mr. Chen Bo, co-founder and COO of Puncture Robotic, presented a banner to the Shanghai Medical Device Testing Institute
As the "gatekeeper" of national medical device technology evaluation, the Shanghai Medical Device Testing Institute has always taken serving "Healthy China" as its mission. In the certification process of HAIRO, the institute's expert team, with "professional rigor" and "efficient collaboration", provided full-process technical guidance on core indicators such as the clinical safety and algorithm reliability of the hair transplant robot. From initial standard interpretation and testing scheme optimization to risk control at key stages, the institute, with its "proactive" service awareness, repeatedly organized special seminars to "accelerate" the project.
The birth of this "first domestic certificate" is not only the glory of Puncture Robotic, but also a microcosm of the collaborative innovation of China's high-end medical equipment industry chain. The Shanghai Medical Device Testing Institute has implemented the national strategy with actions, injecting strong impetus into the independent development of "major national equipment" such as surgical robots.
In the future, Puncture Robotic will continue to work with industry-academia-research partners, starting with HAIRO, to develop more high-end medical equipment that serves the health needs of the people, and contribute to a healthy China.
