It seems to be on the very cheap end if it would qualify as an "industrial robotic arm" (I don't know if it does). I found this paper from 2012 [1] with a list of "Low price industrial robotic arms" (Table 2) and the cheapest one there is $17k.

- monkmartinez 8y agoNot Industrial... "During a 7 unit fabrication run in-house, Bill of Materials (BoM) cost for each arm was tracked at $3328 as shown in Table II. Plastics were printed on Markforged Onyx One and Monoprice MP Select Mini 3D printers. About 75% of our prototype costs were motors and driver boards."
- detaro 8y agoWhat's not industrial about that quote? That they used 3D printing to prototype? That said, they seem to aim primarily at labs, not factory floors.
