When you're comparing industrial robotics cobots, the biggest split is often between a used conventional robot arm and a new collaborative one. The Mitsubishi RV-6S-S41 and the AUBO i10 make that trade-off concrete: the Mitsubishi is priced at USD 3,200.00, while the AUBO comes in at USD 22,000.00. That's an $18,800 difference, and it buys you two very different approaches to automation. Before you compare specs, decide which trade-off matters more: upfront cost or collaborative capability.
Quick verdict
Choose the Mitsubishi RV-6S-S41 if your priority is a low entry cost and you already work with Mitsubishi RV-series arms. Choose the AUBO i10 if you need a new, collaborative robot with a 10 kg payload and are comfortable with a much higher investment.
At a glance
| Product | Price | Condition | Type |
|---|---|---|---|
| Mitsubishi RV-6S-S41 | USD 3,200.00 | Used | RV-6S-S41 |
| AUBO i10 | USD 22,000.00 | New - Open box | Robotic Arm Assembly |
Where each product wins
Mitsubishi RV-6S-S41 wins on price. At USD 3,200.00, it is the lower-cost way to put an industrial arm on your floor. It is a Mitsubishi RV-6S-S41 and is marked as available to ship.
AUBO i10 wins on collaborative design and payload. It is a new open-box robotic arm assembly with a 10 kg payload. It is designed for human-robot interaction, with collaborative operation features suited to jobs like welding and packing. That makes it a more self-contained pick for a modern automation cell.
Product notes
Mitsubishi RV-6S-S41
The Mitsubishi RV-6S-S41 is the lower-priced option here at USD 3,200.00. For a shop that already uses Mitsubishi RV-series arms, this used unit can be a practical way to expand capacity without committing to a new robot. It is marked as available to ship, which is helpful if you need the arm moved promptly. The clear limitation is the used condition: you are getting a pre-owned industrial arm rather than a new collaborative robot. That trade-off makes sense if your priority is keeping the initial investment low and you have the experience to bring an existing robot arm into your line.
AUBO i10
The AUBO i10, priced at USD 22,000.00, is a new open-box collaborative robot arm with a 10 kg payload. It is designed for human-robot interaction, with collaborative operation features that make it suited to jobs like welding and packing. Because it is a complete robotic arm assembly, you can approach it as a ready-to-integrate cobot rather than a used unit. The limitation is the price: at USD 22,000.00, it costs USD 18,800 more than the Mitsubishi, so you need to justify that gap with the payload, condition, and collaborative design. Choose it when your work requires a new 10 kg cobot and you want a collaborative arm.
Final choice by use case
If you are retrofitting an existing line and want to keep cash outlay down, the Mitsubishi RV-6S-S41 is the rational pick. If you are building a new automation cell that needs a 10 kg collaborative robot, the AUBO i10 justifies its higher price. For a new deployment, the AUBO's payload and collaborative features are worth the investment for many operations.
