*Jämförelsen mellan robotarna mäts på ISO-kubens rörelse enligt ISO 9283. Detta mäter energiförbrukningen för en cykel av teströrelsen i ISO Cube och jämför samarbetsroboten med ABB:s industrirobot IRB 1200-5/0,9, med samma hastighet och nyttolast för båda. Energiförbrukningen för en cykel av ISO Cube Motion för coboten var minst 40 % lägre under hela cykeln.
