Close call. myCobot 280 and Nextage Fillie trade wins across the matrix.
Readiness, uptime, navigation & connectivity
Price accessibility and ROI clarity
Payload, speed, runtime & labor replacement
Environment fit, footprint & long-term upside
Robotics curricula: Tabletop demonstrations of 6-axis kinematics and ROS path planning without PC requirement (Pi version).
Electronics assembly in mixed human-robot cells with frequent changeovers
Both are credible picks. Decide on cost and supplier proximity, not capability — the gap is small.
