What is the Aubo i20?
The i20 is Aubo's flagship cobot, closing the gap between mid-range collaborative robots and traditional industrial arms. Its 20 kg payload and 1300 mm reach target large-scale production operations.
Who is it for?
Automotive OEMs, appliance manufacturers, heavy equipment makers, and logistics centers handling large components. Ideal for facilities transitioning from fixed automation to flexible collaborative systems.
Key Specifications
- Payload: 20 kg
- Reach: 1300 mm
- Repeatability: ±0.05 mm
- Operating Speed: 1.5 m/s
- Weight: 35 kg
- Footprint: Requires ~2 m² dedicated space
- Force Feedback: All-joint integration
How it Compares
Payload matches UR10e and Doosan H2017. Reach exceeds most 20 kg competitors. Cost competitive with traditional industrial robots while maintaining cobot safety.
Limitations
Large footprint and weight require substantial mounting infrastructure. Payload still maxes at 20 kg; extreme heavy-duty tasks require traditional industrial robots. Extended reach demands careful workspace planning.
FAQ
What is total reach and manipulation space?
1300 mm nominal reach with full 20 kg load. Spherical workspace ~2.6 m³. Requires 2 m² floor footprint minimum.
Can it handle automotive body assembly?
Yes, with proper integration. Sub-frame positioning, panel manipulation, and assembly typical. Full-vehicle loading not recommended.
What is typical cycle time for large-component assembly?
Depends on task. 45–90 sec/component typical for automotive sub-frame positioning and fastening.
Is it suitable for continuous 24/7 operation?
Yes, with standard maintenance intervals. 3-shift operation common; annual service overhaul recommended.
How does it integrate with existing MES systems?
Aubo cloud API supports standard MES integration. MQTT, OPC-UA, and REST endpoints available for production data streaming.
