Editorial Notes
ABB YuMi — landmark dual-arm collaborative industrial robot.
ABB’s dual-arm collaborative robot that brought human–robot co-working to electronics and small-parts assembly.
YuMi (you and me) launched as ABB’s flagship collaborative dual-arm system for electronics assembly.
Small-parts assembly beside human workers without traditional safety cages.
YuMi helped popularize “cobots” in high-mix electronics manufacturing.
Soft padded arms, precise force control, and dual manipulators enable safe shared workspaces.
Vision-guided and AI-assisted variants continue ABB’s collaborative line.
