Title

We used YuMi in our laboratory to run experiments with two-armed robots. We implemented a block-based programming language for YuMi to make it easier for end-users.

Pro

It is a great, safe, and easy-to-use robot. For professionals, I see YuMi as the best option in the market for two-armed collaborative robots. Our laboratory version comes with the older controller (IRC5), but ABB is trying to bring the new controller to it (OmniCore). If it happens, this will probably be the best robot I have used so far.

Con

As mentioned, our version comes with the old controller and operating system (IRC5). Although it is a solid system for professionals, it does not come with easy-to-use features like ABB Wizard Programming, which I think it is a con. If the target audience is end-users or people without a degree in Engineering, I don't know how easy it would be for them to implement code using YuMi (as the only programming option would be RAPID). Newer versions like GoFa would probably be a better option.

IRB 14000 YuMi FAQ

What is so special about YuMi®?

YuMi® is the world’s first truly collaborative robot, able to work side-by-side on the same tasks as humans while still ensuring the safety of those around it. Capable of handling anything from a watch to a tablet PC and with the level of accuracy that could thread a needle, YuMi® will radically change the way we think about assembly automation.

Why YuMi®?

YuMi® is about “you” and “me” creating an automated future together.
YuMi® is “you” and “me”, working together to create endless possibilities. That’s YuMi®.
YuMi® meets the demands of a consumer market that is driving a need for greater flexibility in automated manufacturing head-on. For manufacturers, the market has changed the rules in ways that can be addressed effectively only by automation. The “new norm” of Small Parts Assembly is higher product volumes, shorter product lifecycles, shorter lead times and a growing trend to customize goods – particularly electronics – close to final markets.

Which tasks has this robot been designed to carry out?

YuMi® is a collaborative, dual-arm Small Parts Assembly robot that includes flexible hands, parts feeding systems, camera-based part location and state-of-the-art robot control. It can collaborate, side-by-side, with humans in a normal manufacturing environment enabling companies to get the best out of both humans and robots, together. One of YuMi®’s unique features is its “inherently safe” design, allowing it to work alongside humans while reducing risks to acceptable safety levels.

How does YuMi® differ from the competition?

YuMi® is inherently safe by design. It has no barriers, no cages, no zones, YuMi® is the first truly collaborative robot solution.

Which benefits do dual-arms bring compared to a traditional robot arm?

It is able to perform the motions required in Small Parts Assembly within a very small space while maintaining a human-like reach. This is critical to minimizing the footprint on the factory floor and also makes it possible to install YuMi® into the work stations currently used only by humans.
