DISCONTINUED - Deep Robotics X20 Industrial Quadruped Robot Dog

A wheel needs a road, but a leg only needs a place to put a foot. That simple difference explains why the DISCONTINUED - Deep Robotics X20 Industrial Quadruped Robot Dog exists: it is built for the stairs, the standing water, the gravel and the sand that stop wheeled carts and make every manual inspection round slow and tiring.

The product is available through this page, by quotation.

Background

Deep Robotics and the X Series

Deep Robotics builds legged robots for work rather than for show. Its quadrupeds are sold to teams that have a facility to watch, a route to walk and a job that is too repetitive or too risky to hand to a person every day. The X20 belongs to the industrial end of that range and sits in the X Series, the family aimed at inspection work in demanding sites.

This listing is marked as discontinued. For a buyer, that matters in two ways. Some operators already run X20 machines and want to keep a fleet consistent. Others are comparing generations and want to know what the earlier platform offered before looking at newer models such as the Deep Robotics X30 Industrial Quadruped Robot Dog or the Deep Robotics X30 Pro Industrial Quadruped Robot Dog.

What the X20 is designed to do

The X20 quadruped robot solution is made for industrial patrol inspection under extreme working conditions. Its mobility, its protection rating and its modular body all serve that single purpose: walking a route reliably, carrying the right instruments, and coming back with useful data.

The platform supports precise navigation, dynamic obstacle avoidance, terrain recognition and human-robot interaction. It also offers a modular design with a plentiful supply of interfaces, so that peripherals can be integrated without reworking the robot. The same body can therefore be set up differently for different sites.

Technical Specifications

Specifications as published by the manufacturer, all of them laboratory data; they are confirmed against the datasheet at quotation.

The manufacturer has not published the battery capacity, the charging time, the operating temperature range, the onboard processor, the sensor models, the communication interfaces, the contents of the box, the degrees of freedom or the software and SDK; they are confirmed at quotation.

What makes the X20 suited to harsh sites?

Three things stand out in the figures: protection, terrain ability and carrying capacity. The IP66 rating means the robot is dust and water resistant for adverse conditions. That is the first question for any site where rain, spray, dust or standing water is part of the daily routine, and it decides whether a robot can stay on duty or must be sent indoors.

Terrain is the second. The X20 adapts to 20 cm obstacles and stairs, 30° slopes, grass, sand, snow, gravel, standing water and similar surfaces. The figures behind this are an obstacle clearance of ≥ 200 mm and a maximum slope of ≥ 30°. A route that mixes a concrete yard, a stair flight and a gravel path is exactly where a legged machine earns its place over a wheeled one.

The third is the payload. A rating of 20 kg gives room for the instruments a patrol actually needs, rather than a single small camera. Combined with the interface supply, it means the robot is a carrier for your inspection tools as well as an inspector in itself.

Which payloads and sensors can the X20 carry?

The modular architecture and the extensive interface array allow you to equip cameras, robotic arms, LiDAR units, gas sensors and more. In practice, this means a site can build a custom payload solution around the task: a visual round, a gas check in a closed space, or a mapping pass with LiDAR.

Anyone planning a specific integration should ask for the interface details when requesting a quotation. That conversation is the right moment to match your instruments to the connections on the robot.

Who is the X20 for?

The X20 suits operators of large or hazardous facilities who want patrol rounds done consistently and without sending a person into every corner. Typical groups include utility and power operators, tunnel and mining teams, construction managers, and safety or rescue organizations that need eyes in places where footing is uncertain.

It also suits integrators who build inspection solutions and want a rugged carrier with a modular interface supply. Existing X20 owners looking for a matching unit will find it useful to keep a fleet uniform.

If you want the most recent generation of the line rather than this discontinued model, look at the X30 or the X30 Pro named above. Those who only need a lighter machine for training, teaching or research may prefer one of the Standard Quadrupeds, such as the Lite3 LIDAR model.

What is the X20 used for?

1. Industrial patrol inspection. Walking a fixed route through a plant or yard and checking equipment under harsh conditions.
2. Navigation with obstacle avoidance. Moving through a site with precise navigation and avoiding people and objects that move into its path.
3. Gas and hazard checks. Carrying gas sensors into areas where a person should not go first.
4. Visual inspection. Mounting cameras to record equipment condition along the route.
5. Mapping and sensing. Fitting LiDAR units to build up a picture of the surroundings.
6. Manipulation tasks. Adding a robotic arm through the interface supply for tasks beyond observation.

Pricing and Availability

We do not print prices on this page. Quotation is the way to proceed: tell us your site, your payload and your quantity, and we will respond with a proposal. Because this model is marked as discontinued, ask about current availability when you request it. Delivery, customs and support are arranged together with the quotation, so that nothing is left to chance after the order. The X20 Industrial Quadruped Robot Dog is available on this page.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is the X20 waterproof?

How much can the X20 carry?

The payload capacity is 20 kg. The robot itself weighs 53 kg.

How long does the battery last?

The endurance is 2 – 4 h, with a mileage of 15 km.

What terrain can it handle?

It adapts to 20 cm obstacles and stairs, 30° slopes, grass, sand, snow, gravel and standing water. Its top speed is ≥ 4 m/s.

Which payloads can be fitted?

The modular design and interface supply let you equip cameras, robotic arms, LiDAR units, gas sensors and more. Ask for the interface details when you request a quotation.

Is the X20 still in production?

This listing is marked as discontinued. Please request a quotation to learn what can be offered for your project.

Where can I buy the X20 and what does it cost?

You can request it through this page, by quotation. We do not print prices; the quotation covers the configuration, delivery, customs and support.

Summary

Where a wheel needs a road, the X20 needs only a footing, and its 53 kg frame, IP66 rating, 20 kg payload and modular interfaces are all arranged around that idea. It is a carrier for inspection tools in places where people and wheeled machines struggle. Anyone who wants to keep an X20 fleet consistent, or to understand this generation of the X Series, will find that this page is the starting point.
