Industrial Applications
KUAVO 4Pro is a 166 cm/55 kg predecessor with several sensor, compute and end-effector packages. The legacy kuavo-my URL names this same family. Edition manuals separate 22-DOF Standard from 28-body-DOF Advanced/Showroom/Max variants, rather than making 40 DOF universal.
This editorial assessment concerns industrial buyer readiness. It is not an independent performance test.

Manipulation and Perception
Filing: maximum 5 kg per arm and 15 kg whole-body load, distinct scopes. Family manual prose 28 body DOF conflicts with its table 30; edition chapters clarify 22 or 28 excluding end-effectors. Hands add their own joints; short 626 mm/long 790 mm arms differ.
Family manual D435, Mid-360, six-mic array and i 9 controller; updated edition chapters Gemini 335 L and different upper computers. No universal Orin, wrist-camera or tactile-hand entitlement.
SDK and Integration
Kuavo public ROS 1/Python controller path; branch and hardware version must match.
| API type | ROS controller topics/services and Kuavo Python SDK |
|---|---|
| Languages | C++ controller source, Python SDK |
| ROS support | ROS1 package explicitly documented; this Python package excludes ROS2. Confirm delivered controller branch. |
| Simulation | MuJoCo launch examples and Docker controller simulation; robot description and ROBOT_VERSION must match. |
| Offline operation | Local controller/simulation examples exist; optional cloud speech, VLA and model services need separate dependency review. |
| Teleoperation | VR/remote-controller and data-collection workflows documented in ecosystem; edition/hardware compatibility must be confirmed. |
| Software updates | Repository/package releases; version-match controller, SDK and calibration. Firmware support period unknown. |
| Documentation | Open documentation |
| Code examples | Open repository |
| Integration constraints | Match exact robot version, mass calibration, end-effectors and controller package. Prebuilt hardware dependencies may remain. |
Safety Notes
No exact-model conformity dossier or certified collaborative operating envelope verified. Emergency-stop hardware and manufacturer demonstrations do not establish safe unrestricted shared work.
Compliance and Certificates
| Standard | Status | Jurisdiction | Evidence |
|---|---|---|---|
| CE marking | Unknown | European Union | No exact-model signed declaration or test evidence inspected. Generic standard references and distributor promises are not model certification. |
| ISO 10218 / ISO/TS 15066 review required | Unknown | International | No exact-model signed declaration or test evidence inspected. Generic standard references and distributor promises are not model certification. |
Commercial Readiness
| Pricing | No current exact-edition price verified; request a configuration-specific quote. Historical family average selling prices are not a unit list price. |
|---|---|
| Price range | Quote-based or unverified |
| Lead time | Needs verification |
| Availability regions | China; present quotation required, Europe: distributor-stated Leju range, exact edition subject to quote |
| Spare parts | Distributor claims European batteries/common spares; exact Leju model inventory and replenishment lead time not independently verified. |
| Warranty | No uniform manufacturer warranty duration, exclusions or cross-border repair cost established for these models. Obtain edition-specific written terms. |
| Configuration and pricing basis | Exact configuration quotation required |
| Distributors and service | Robot Distribution advertises Leju supply, European service and training; no per-edition authorisation or stock verification. |
No price, stock or lead time inferred from generic family offers.
Specifications
| Height | 1660 mm |
|---|---|
| Weight | 55.00 kg |
| Payload | 5.00 kg |
| Runtime | Unknown |
| Battery and runtime conditions | 60 V / 6 Ah; manufacturer edition manual gives 1 h walking endurance, ≥500 cycles and ≤1.5 h charging. Family/prospectus ≥2 h claim has different or unstated workload. Hot swapping does not turn either figure into uninterrupted battery runtime. |
