Doosan Robotics H2515
25 kg payload, 1.5 m reach. Korean-made, strong in palletising.
How H2515 compares within +/- 5 kg payload.
Korean heavy-payload (25 kg / 1.5 m). Direct competitor to UR20 and FANUC CRX-25iA. Pricing band $60-75K — slightly cheaper than both Western alternatives at the same payload.
Why this cobot costs what it costs.
The Doosan H2515 is the cohort's stealth value play in the heavy-payload bracket. 25 kg payload at 1.5 m reach — competitive with UR20 and CRX-25iA — at $60-75K distributor pricing that undercuts both by $5-15K. The H-series controller is solid, and Doosan's reputation in industrial Korea is genuinely strong (Doosan Robotics IPO'd on KOSPI 2023, has a real product roadmap). What it loses on is North American distribution: integrator depth, parts availability, and partner-network maturity all favour UR and FANUC in the US. The structural argument is that for buyers willing to take North-American-distribution risk for a 10-20% price advantage at this payload, Doosan H-series is rational. For risk-averse first-cell buyers, the calculus changes — partly because integration spend tends to be 20-30% higher (fewer Doosan-certified integrators) and partly because spares cycle time is longer. Reseller MachineToolProducts quotes $63,500 for the H2515 single-unit, which is the most defensible distributor figure in this dataset's heavy-payload tier.
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.
