Overview
6-axis collaborative robot arm from Beijing-based AUBO (遨博) in its i-series: 5 kg payload, 886.5 mm working radius, ±0.02 mm repeatability and a 24 kg arm. AUBO says it needs no safety fence and can work close to people; it is aimed at loading and unloading, assembly, screwdriving, spraying and welding in 3C electronics, auto parts, metal processing, food, pharma and logistics. It can be mounted at any angle and runs on a 100-240 V control cabinet.
Will the AUBO i5 do your task? Simulate it before you buy.
Four cobots on the same palletizing task, simulated before purchase.
We build your station in a simulator with the AUBO i5 and one or two alternatives, and send you video plus cycle time, parts per shift, reach and payload check, and a payback estimate. Scoping is free, and every project is quoted individually.

Key facts
- Official AUBO page (Chinese, fetched 2026-10-17): 6 axes, working radius 886.5 mm, payload 5 kg, weight 24 kg, base Ø172 mm, repeatability ±0.02 mm, tool speed up to 2.8 m/s, average power 200 W, peak 1000 W, ambient 0-50 °C, humidity 25-90%, IP54, any mounting angle.
- The same page also says 'arm span 1008 mm' and a 886.5 mm working range; 886.5 mm is used as the reach.
- Repeatability conflict: AUBO's page says ±0.02 mm; the ASBIS listing says ±0.05 mm and Unchained's spec table also says 0.05 mm while its overview says ±0.02 mm. The manufacturer's ±0.02 mm is used. ASBIS also lists 4.0 m/s linear speed in its table versus 2.8 m/s in its text, and 400 W average / 2000 W peak power versus AUBO's 200 / 1000 W.
- Control cabinet AUBO-CB-M: 5 m arm cable; I/O power 24 V, 3 A max at the cabinet. ASBIS lists SDK (C/C++/C#/Lua/Python), ROS support and 24-month warranty.
- The fetched AUBO page carries a 2020-2021 copyright notice; no launch date was found, so year_announced is empty.
- The Chinese page's joint-range table is rendered as placeholders; joint ranges and speeds are not recorded.
- software.ros_support is false because AUBO's page does not mention ROS and the ASBIS listing contradicts itself ('NO ROS' in the table, ROS in the programming list); the SDK flag comes from the ASBIS listing only.
