AUBO I5 5kg Payload 924.5mm Reach 6 Axis Collaborative Robot Arm for Assembly,Welding and Material Handing

AUBO-i5 Collaborative Robot Overview

• • The AUBO-i5 is a second generation six axis collaborative robot rated for 5 kg payload, with a 924.5 mm reach and a 24 kg aluminium body.
• • Each joint of this collaborative robot is a sealed modular unit with dual absolute encoders and a hollow shaft, so cables stay inside the arm.
• • Repeatability of ±0.02 mm keeps the collaborative robot arm inside tolerance through repeated assembly, screw driving and inspection cycles.
• • The collaborative robot runs on single phase 100-240 VAC and draws about 200 W, so it commissions on a standard workshop outlet.
• • Commissioning happens on the 12 inch AUBOPE pendant: hand guide the collaborative robot arm, record waypoints, then replay the path.
• • An SDK for C, C++, Lua and Python, a ROS driver and Modbus-RTU/TCP let integrators embed the collaborative robot into existing PLC and MES platforms.

Advantages of the AUBO-i5 Collaborative Robot

• • Force limited motion plus emergency stop circuits on the control box and pendant let the collaborative robot share a workspace with operators.
• • A modular joint can be replaced in the field, so a collaborative robot arm running three shifts rarely waits long for repair.
• • The 24 kg body mounts on a bench, wall bracket or ceiling frame, so this collaborative robot needs no heavy plinth.
• • IP54 sealing and a 0-45 degree range suit the collaborative robot to crowded production floors, not only clean rooms.
• • Hand guiding replaces text based point teaching, so an operator retasks the collaborative robot arm in minutes.
• • The tool flange carries 4 configurable digital channels and 2 analog inputs, so grippers and dispensers need no extra wiring box.
• • A 200 W draw and a 30,000 hour design life keep the ownership cost of this collaborative robot low.
• • Compliance with ISO 10218-1:2011 supports the risk assessment when a collaborative robot joins an existing cell.

Applications

• • Assembly and screw fastening cells, where the collaborative robot arm drives screws, inserts pins or seats connectors at set torque.
• • Machine tending: loading CNC lathes, moulding machines and test benches, a core task for any collaborative robot.
• • Pick and place transfer between conveyors, trays and magazines at up to 2.8 m/s on this collaborative robot arm.
• • Dispensing, gluing and soldering that need a repeatable 0.02 mm path around small parts held by the collaborative robot.
• • Inspection and measurement routines where the collaborative robot presents each part to a fixed camera.
• • Light palletising, case packing and end of line cartoning for 5 kg cartons handled by the collaborative robot arm.
• • Laboratory, research and education automation, where the SDK and ROS driver of this collaborative robot support custom algorithms.
• • Welding, grinding and polishing support cells, run next to our welding workstations and grinding cells.

FAQ

• • Q: What payload can the AUBO-i5 collaborative robot handle?
  A: The collaborative robot is rated for 5 kg at the tool flange, with a centre of gravity offset of 100 mm from the flange axis.
• • Q: How accurate is the arm over a long production run?
  A: Repeatability is ±0.02 mm, and every axis uses an absolute encoder, so the collaborative robot arm needs no re-homing after a restart.
• • Q: Can it be mounted on a wall or a ceiling?
  A: Yes. Forward, hoisting and vertical mounting are all supported; the base needs four M8 bolts plus locating pins on a rigid surface.
• • Q: Which programming routes are available?
  A: Online programming on the pendant through AUBOPE, offline simulation, and script level control of the collaborative robot through the SDK in C, C++, Lua or Python.
• • Q: How is it powered and wired?
  A: One single phase 100-240 VAC, 50-60 Hz supply feeds the control box; 2.9 m cables link the pendant and the collaborative robot to that box.
• • Q: What is the delivery scope?
  A: Standard sets of the collaborative robot ship in 7 to 15 working days in an export plywood crate with manipulator, control box, pendant and cables; spare joints are quoted on request.
