Doosan Robotics A0912 (A-series)

How A0912 (A-series) compares within +/- 5 kg payload.

Doosan's value-tier line. 9 kg / 1.2 m at $25-35K. Competes with UR5e on price, UR10e on reach.

Why this cobot costs what it costs.

The A-series is Doosan's response to the cobot category's price-sensitive entry tier — pitched against UR5e on absolute price and UR10e on reach. At $25-35K it's substantially cheaper than UR10e ($45-60K) at slightly less payload (9 vs 12.5 kg) but more reach (1.2 vs 1.3 m comparable). The Standard Bots reseller listing as 'over $40,000' is the only public North American figure, and Unchained Robotics in Europe has historically listed in the high-twenties. This pricing only pencils if the buyer is comfortable with a younger product line and a thinner integrator network. Doosan A-series doesn't have UR's installed base, ABB's industrial heritage, or FANUC's service moat — it's competing on bare-arm price. For a second-cobot purchase by an existing Doosan-savvy operations team, the math works; for a first cell, the savings often disappear into higher integration spend. Treat the price band as illustrative, not anchored — verify directly with Doosan's North American distributor before budgeting.

Vendor-specific Bill of Materials.

These line items are what Doosan Robotics cells specifically need, beyond the bare arm. Multiply the arm price by 2.5-4x to land at typical installed cost — these items account for most of that multiplier.

Target buyer profile.

Cost-sensitive 9-kg-class applications. Second-cobot purchases by operations teams already familiar with Doosan or comfortable with smaller integrator networks.
