Re:A $33K robot barista serves 120 cups of coffee an hour by hwillis on Thursday March 14, 2019 @10:06AM (#19389295)
Low-end arms are ~5k. This is just quite small, a Mitsubishi RV-FR series, payload ~5 kg. 300k+ robots are things like the KUKA KR1000 ("Titan"), which can literally toss around cars. It's got 200x higher payload for <20x the cost; if anything small arms are overpriced (they are- the only current use cases are pharmacies, low-end semiconductors and medicine).

Anyway, Mitsubishi is well respected and this is a very good arm.
