JAKA Kargo

JAKA Kargo is a mobile dual-arm robot from JAKA Robotics in Shanghai, built from steel and aluminium and correspondingly heavy: 250 kg at 1750 mm height on an 841 by 641 mm footprint.

A differential wheeled base carries a lifting column with 0 to 780 mm of travel, above it a waist that pitches from 0 to 90 degrees and a neck that turns ±90 degrees and tilts from -20 to 45 degrees; together with two seven-axis arms this yields 20 degrees of freedom. Each arm handles 5 kg. Perception relies on two vision cameras described by the maker as multimodal sensing.

The controller pairs a 12th-generation Intel Core i5 with a 128 GB SSD, WiFi 6 and four Gigabit Ethernet ports serving as EtherCAT master with a 1 ms communication cycle. Power draw is 1600 W and the protection class is IP20. JAKA does not state battery runtime. The robot is meant for sorting, material transport and loading or unloading in warehouses and factories.

Different numbers circulate in other listings (21 degrees of freedom, 156.5 cm, 180 kg, 15 kg payload), but the maker's sheet says 20 axes, 1750 mm, 250 kg and 5 kg per arm, and those are the figures to trust. Because the product page provides full parameters and an enquiry form, the status is on sale; price on request.

The standalone arm is the jaka-k1, and a similarly heavy wheeled rival is HSR-ER-HR705.
