AUBO-i5 - Palletizing Package

AUBO Robotics
Unverified

The AUBO-i5 Palletizing Package is a 6-axis collaborative robot arm (5 kg payload, ~887 mm reach, ±0.02 mm repeatability) manufactured by AUBO Robotics (Beijing), paired with palletizing software and end-effectors to form an end-of-line automation solution. Once configured via a simple 3-step parameterization interface (entering box/pallet dimensions and orientation), the system executes palletizing tasks fully autonomously without human involvement in the stacking task itself. Independent community sources confirm reliable pick-and-place performance with compatible grippers, though ROS integration has exhibited jitter issues and documentation quality is noted as rudimentary. Pricing varies significantly by channel, from ~$6,000–$10,000 (industry estimate for the arm alone) to $65,000 (one US reseller), with the full palletizing station priced separately.

Evidence-graded claims from the AUBO Robotics deep report

Good
  • AUBO i-series cobots execute industrial tasks (palletizing, assembly, pick-and-place, welding) fully autonomously once programmed, with no human teleoperation performing the tasks.

    Multiple independent commerce listings (Unchained Robotics [1], EFPIA [3], TSI Solutions [9]) and a JETRO government report [8] describe standard programmed cobot operation; no source indicates human teleoperation of tasks, though long-term reliability data from independent end-users is absent.

    from AUBO Robotics deep report →
  • AUBO i-series cobots cover a payload range of 3–20 kg (i3 through i20) with reach from 625 mm to 1650 mm.

    Independent commerce listing from Unchained Robotics [1] explicitly details the i20 at 20 kg payload and 1650 mm reach, corroborating the full range; however, AUBO's own vendor website reportedly lists only up to 16 kg, suggesting possible product-line documentation lag.

    from AUBO Robotics deep report →
  • AUBO has established a genuine US commercial presence with warehouse, service, and training infrastructure in Detroit, supported by multiple distribution partners.

    An independent business news report confirms the Kundinger Inc. distribution partnership [6], JETRO confirms the 2024 Japan subsidiary [8], and EFPIA's commerce listing independently references Detroit warehouse/service/training operations [3]; however, the scale of US sales volume remains unverified.

Bad
  • AUBO cobots achieve a repeatability of ±0.05 mm (i3, i5) and ±0.1 mm (i10, i16, i20).

    Repeatability figures come from commerce spec sheets [1][2], which are distributor/reseller listings rather than independent laboratory or third-party benchmark tests, so the specs remain unverified by a neutral party.

    from AUBO Robotics deep report →
  • AUBO cobots are deployed across diverse industries including automotive, 3C electronics, medical/health, logistics, and catering.

    Industry deployment claims are consistent across vendor and distributor sources [3][4][9], but no independent customer case study, third-party audit, or journalist report confirms actual at-scale deployment in any specific sector.

    from AUBO Robotics deep report →
  • AUBO is a national standards setter for collaborative robots in China.

    This claim appears only on AUBO's own vendor materials [4] and is not corroborated by any independent regulatory body, standards organization publication, or third-party news report.

    from AUBO Robotics deep report →
  • AUBO i-series cobots are competitively priced versus Western cobots, listed at ~$15,000 USD per set (i5) and €18,100–€31,000 in Europe, with Chinese cobots broadly available in the $5,000–$10,000 range.

    The $15,000 i5 price is from a commerce listing [2] and the €18,100–€31,000 range from Unchained Robotics [1] (both resellers, not AUBO directly); the $5,000–$10,000 figure is a Reddit community generalization about Chinese cobots broadly [14], not specific to AUBO, leaving the true street price unverified.
