Collaborative arms ranked by payload, highest to lowest

Seventeen collaborative arms from three makers, ordered by their published payload figures, with reach shown alongside.

The table ranks 17 collaborative arms from Doosan Robotics, Techman Robot, and Universal Robots by their manufacturers' published payload figures. The second column shows each arm's published reach.

The median published payload across the 17 ranked arms is 12.5 kg. The remaining 20 arms in the collaborative-arm category carry no published payload figure and do not appear in this ranking.

What the table shows

  • The published payload figures in this ranking run from 3 kg at the bottom to 30 kg at the top.
  • The UR30 from Universal Robots holds the top position alone with a published payload of 30 kg.
  • Three arms share rank 2 with a published payload of 20 kg, yet their published reach figures differ: 1300 mm for the TM20, 1700 mm for the H2017, and 1750 mm for the UR20.
  • Twenty of the 37 collaborative arms in the database publish no payload figure and do not appear in this ranking.

How this was made

Every figure is the maker's own published specification, as held in our database on 2026-09-21, converted to one unit; the source column links the document it comes from. 20 other robots in our collaborative arm category publish no payload figure and are not ranked. The words around the table were written by our writer agent from these figures alone, and checked by a person before publication.
