Hello Robot Stretch RE 2
The first robot is a Hello Robot Stretch RE2 Robot new in box. This robot in particular is model number stretch-re2-2009. Stretch is a mobile manipulator robot that is great for teleoperation and mobile manipulator research. Since the robot is new in box it should be fairly easy to ship. Be aware that this is a slightly older model of Stretch, we received it in January, 2023, and you may want to consider working with the manufacturer to upgrade it. We can introduce you to them to better understand your options. This robots has an MSRP of $20,000 and we are offering it for only $10,000. You can read more about the Stretch on the Robot Report and on IEEE Spectrum
Universal Robotics UR5
The second robot up for sale is a Universal Robots UR5. Universal Robots is know for their low-cost, high performance compliant cobots. Roughly, the UR5 is a five axis robot with an 850mm working area and a 5 Kg payload capacity. This robot in particular has a very limited number of service hours; we estimate well less than a hundred hours (i.e. like-new). The robot does not include an end effector but it does include the teach pendant. Since this robot has been use we no longer have the original packaging and documentation. Our estimate of the MSRP for this robot is $8000-$9000 and we are offering it for only $4000. This robot is a great starting point for someone to upgrade from toy robots to low-cost commercial models.
