YMBot D4
AI ChatLast updated:
YMBot D4 is a heavy-load industrial wheeled humanoid from YMBot (Jiangsu Yunmu Intelligent Manufacturing) in Taicang, first shown at the 2026 World Artificial Intelligence Conference in Shanghai. It is built around two arms that can carry 60 kg together, 30 kg each, with high-precision motion control that YMBot says places loads to within a millimeter. A vertical lifting platform with an 800 mm stroke lets it work from the floor up to 2 m. It stands 1820 mm tall on a base measuring 800 by 680 mm, has 27 degrees of freedom without end tools, and drives at up to 1.5 m/s on a four-steer, four-drive omnidirectional chassis. Two 48 V, 30 Ah batteries run it for about 8 hours and can be swapped quickly. It sees with stereo and RGB-D cameras, a fisheye camera and LiDAR, and feels loads through a six-axis force sensor. YMBot reports a redundant power system in the chassis that lets it stop safely if one drive fails, plus an emergency stop and several layers of safety protection. It runs YMBot's Primitive X industrial model, connects by Wi-Fi, 4G/5G and Bluetooth, and offers low-level joint and sensor interfaces with ROS2 compatibility. YMBot aims it at heavy manufacturing, logistics handling and other jobs that replace high-risk, high-intensity manual work, completing the light, medium and heavy tiers of its industrial line.

Frequently Asked Questions
Get answers to common questions about this robot
Q1. What is YMBot D4, and what problem is it designed to solve?
YMBot D4 is a heavy-load industrial wheeled humanoid from YMBot in Taicang. Two strong arms on a lifting platform let it move heavy parts and boxes in factories and warehouses.
Q2. What are the main capabilities and key features of YMBot D4?
It combines two high-capacity arms, a lifting platform that covers the floor to head height, a fully omnidirectional base, force sensing, vision and laser sensors, and a battery that can be swapped quickly.
Q3. Who is YMBot D4 built for, and which industries can benefit from it?
It is built for heavy manufacturing, logistics handling and other sites that want to replace dangerous or exhausting manual lifting.
Q4. Is YMBot D4 a commercial product or still a research prototype?
It is a commercial industrial product; YMBot first showed it in 2026 and says several large manufacturers are in purchase talks.
Q5. Is YMBot D4 currently available for purchase, and when is it expected to ship?
YMBot sells it to business customers and quotes prices on request, so availability and delivery are agreed with the company.
Q6. How does YMBot D4 actually work in real-world environments?
It plans each pick with its industrial AI model, steers itself on four independently driven wheels, adjusts its height on the lift, and feels the load through a force sensor, with a backup power system in case a drive fails.
Q7. When was YMBot D4 announced or officially launched?
YMBot showed it for the first time at the World Artificial Intelligence Conference in Shanghai in July 2026.
Q8. How is YMBot D4 different from other robots in the same category?
It is the heaviest-duty member of YMBot's industrial line, above the lighter D1 and the mid-range D2.
Q9. Does YMBot D4 require additional development or customization after purchase?
End tools such as grippers or hands are optional, and developers can use the supplied joint, sensor and motion interfaces, which work with ROS2.
Q10. What is the future roadmap or planned upgrades for YMBot D4?
YMBot plans to refine its industrial model with real production data and move towards batch delivery to factories after pilot projects.
