Mycobot Pro 600

Overview

The Elephant Robotics myCobot Pro 600 is a 6-axis collaborative arm priced at $8,799, offering 2 kg payload and 600 mm reach. Positioned as a step up from the entry-level myCobot family, the Pro 600 delivers improved payload, repeatability, and build quality suitable for light production, laboratory automation, and research applications. Elephant Robotics has built a broad ecosystem of compatible end effectors, grippers, camera mounts, and accessories around the myCobot platform, which simplifies integration for users without specialist robotics engineering expertise.

Key Specifications

• Axes: 6
• Payload: 2 kg
• Reach: 600 mm
• Repeatability: ±0.05 mm
• Price: $8,799

The Pro 600 is compatible with Elephant Robotics' myStudio development environment, ROS, and Python APIs. An embedded Raspberry Pi or Jetson Nano can be mounted in the base for onboard compute, which supports standalone operation without a tethered PC for simpler applications.

Use Cases

UK research laboratories, university teaching programmes, and small manufacturing businesses use the myCobot Pro 600 for pick-and-place, inspection, sorting, light assembly, and as a testbed for end-effector and vision system development. The extensive accessory ecosystem means users can configure the arm with grippers, suction cups, cameras, and writing tools without custom fabrication, which reduces the time from unboxing to functional prototype significantly.

The Pro 600 is popular in UK university engineering departments as a practical teaching platform for robotics programming courses, where its accessible price allows cohorts to work with multiple units simultaneously rather than sharing a single demonstration robot.

Buying Used

Used myCobot Pro 600 units are available through secondary markets and Elephant Robotics UK. The platform's widespread adoption means reasonably consistent used supply. Check the joint coupling condition and run a simple path repeatability test before purchase. Replacement parts including servo joints are available from Elephant Robotics.

Alternatives to Consider

• Dobot Nova 2 for a competing 6-axis 2 kg arm at a similar price
• Universal Robots UR3e for a 3 kg arm with a significantly larger ecosystem at higher cost
• Elephant Robotics Mercury A1 for a 7-axis upgrade within the same ecosystem
