PLEXA One
PLEXA One is an industrial humanoid from Konstanz-based fruitcore robotics, introduced on May 5, 2026 as the top configuration of its Industrial Humanoid Platform. Built on the company's proven HORST600 G2 and HORST800 G2 industrial arms, it offers dual-arm setups with 14 to 16 axes, up to 7 kg per arm, ±0.05 mm repeatability and IP54 or IP65 protection, either stationary (PLEXA ONE S) or on an autonomous mobile robot (AMR) platform. The PLEXA Core 2.0 intelligence layer, in which AI agents built on vision-language-action models run on the horstOS operating system, plans and controls its work. First configurations are due for industrial customers later in 2026.
Quick Overview & Key Facts
PLEXA One is a humanoid system developed by Fruitcore Robotics in Germany and launched in 2026. Starting price is estimated at USD90,000 – USD200,000. It is currently ranked #323 in most-viewed humanoid robots on Origin of Bots. It features a payload capacity of Machine-tending workpieces, electronic subassemblies and warehouse components up to 7 kg per arm. Operating battery runtime is rated at Stationary: continuous on mains power; AMR version approx. 8 hours per charge. Primary applications include Machine tending in mechanical engineering with many different components, assembly of subassemblies in electronics manufacturing, picking of components from different warehouses in logistics, and multi-step processes that need dexterity or mobility.

Frequently Asked Questions
Get answers to common questions about this robot
Q1. What is PLEXA One, and what problem is it designed to solve?
PLEXA One is an industrial humanoid from German robot maker fruitcore robotics. It brings human-like two-arm dexterity and optional mobility to factory tasks using proven industrial robot technology rather than a research prototype.
Q2. What are the main capabilities and key features of PLEXA One?
It combines two industrial arms with up to sixteen axes, high precision, industrial-grade protection and the option of a stationary or a mobile base. An AI layer called PLEXA Core 2.0 plans and controls its work through the horstOS operating system, without an external PLC.
Q3. Who is PLEXA One built for, and which industries can benefit from it?
It is built for manufacturers with varied components or multi-step processes, such as machine tending in mechanical engineering, electronics assembly and picking parts in logistics, where fixed automation is too rigid or too costly.
Q4. Is PLEXA One a commercial product or still a research prototype?
It is presented as a commercial industrial product built on robots already in production, not a prototype, although its first configurations are only now being made available to customers.
Q5. Is PLEXA One currently available for purchase, and when is it expected to ship?
It is available for planning in initial customer projects, with first configurations due later this year. fruitcore has not published a price, and buyers start with a feasibility request.
Q6. How does PLEXA One actually work in real-world environments?
The robot is configured from standardized modules, commissioned quickly and programmed through horstOS. PLEXA Core 2.0 agents use vision and sensor input and natural-language instructions to plan processes, make decisions and turn them into robot movements in real time.
Q7. When was PLEXA One announced or officially launched?
fruitcore robotics introduced PLEXA One on May 5, 2026 from Konstanz, Germany, and presented it in webinars in June 2026.
Q8. How is PLEXA One different from other robots in the same category?
Many humanoids target general-purpose work and remain prototypes. PLEXA One is designed around industrial performance, precision, durability and cost, drawing on industrial arms proven in production over many years.
Q9. Does PLEXA One require additional development or customization after purchase?
It needs application-specific setup: choosing the configuration, grippers, sensors and vision, and mapping the process, although fruitcore says standardized modules and no-code programming shorten commissioning.
Q10. What is the future roadmap or planned upgrades for PLEXA One?
fruitcore robotics says it will bring first configurations to industrial customers later in 2026 and continue to develop the PLEXA Core intelligence layer, building on its platform of arms, software and AI.
