TORA ONE

Overview

The PaXini TORA ONE is a foldable-frame humanoid with a height range of 146 to 186 cm, a 5 kg per-arm payload, and an 8-hour runtime, currently in pre-order. The foldable frame is a distinctive mechanical feature enabling compact storage and transport, which is potentially valuable for deployments where the robot must be moved between sites or stored in limited space between shifts. Pricing has not been disclosed.

Key Specifications

The TORA ONE adjusts between 146 and 186 cm through its foldable frame mechanism. It supports 5 kg per arm and offers approximately 8 hours of runtime. The foldable design introduces mechanical complexity but enables a transport and storage footprint significantly smaller than a fixed-frame humanoid of equivalent operating height. Full joint count and locomotion speed specifications are not publicly available.

Use Cases

Multi-site service deployments where a single robot is transported between locations, and environments with limited storage space between operational shifts, are the primary beneficiaries of the foldable design. Service environments including healthcare, hospitality, and retail are the intended markets. The 8-hour runtime, if validated, supports extended service shifts without recharging.

Buying Used

No used TORA ONE units exist at this stage. The foldable frame mechanism is the primary mechanical risk point: any used unit should have all folding and locking mechanisms thoroughly tested through their full range before purchase, as wear in these components could compromise both operational height adjustment and structural integrity during operation.

Alternatives to Consider

The Muks Robotics Spaceo M1 and Spaceo PRO offer height flexibility as the closest conceptual comparisons. For buyers where the foldable design is not a priority, standard-frame humanoids with similar payload and runtime include the Agility Robotics Digit and UBTECH Walker S2. UK buyers should note the absence of confirmed UK distribution for PaXini products.
