Lightweight Tendon-Driven Five-Finger Robot Hand
The Unitree Dex2/5 is a 365 g five-finger robot hand driven by gear and tendon-rope transmission. 2 of its 10 degrees of freedom are actuated: the thumb is driven independently and the four fingers share one motor.
It offers a 1.5 kg load, 15 N at the thumb, 1000 Hz communication over RS-485 and a 100,000-cycle fatigue test. It is compatible with the Unitree G1 and R1.
Unitree Turkey Distributor · on-site commissioning and support protocol (SLA)
The Unitree Dex2/5 is Unitree's light, robust five-finger robot hand. Gear and tendon-rope transmission moves 10 joints, 2 of which are actuated: the thumb by its own motor and the four fingers by a shared motor. It offers a weight of 365 g, a 1.5 kg load and 15 N at the thumb.
The manufacturer states that the hand passed 100,000 fatigue cycles and more than 100 drop tests and that it is compatible with the G1 and R1 models. The hand communicates at 1000 Hz over RS-485 and carries no tactile sensors. As the official distributor of Unitree Robotics in Turkey, Robotlar.org handles Dex2/5 supply through a corporate quotation.

100,000 fatigue cycles, more than 100 drops.
The Unitree Dex2/5 is a candidate for all of these jobs; in each scenario our catalogue also holds other bodies that can do the same work. The right robot follows from the job itself and the delivery timeline.
A G1 or R1 used for teaching or demonstrations is fitted with a light, robust five-finger hand. The two-motor layout simplifies the software side, and the 100,000-cycle and drop tests reduce the maintenance load under heavy use.
Tasks that wrap all fingers around objects such as boxes, bottles or handles do not need independent finger motion. A 1.5 kg load and an 8 mm minimum grasp diameter cover these tasks.

The most common questions about the Unitree Dex2/5.
The Unitree Dex2/5 is a 365 g five-finger robot hand with gear and tendon-rope transmission. 2 of its 10 degrees of freedom are actuated: the thumb is driven independently and the four fingers share one motor.
Unitree states that the Dex2/5 is compatible with the G1 and R1 models. In the unitree_ros repository the hand is available as a URDF together with the G1 5010 wrist file.
The load is 1.5 kg palm down and up. Fingertip force is given as 15 N at the thumb and 15 N in total for the four fingers.
No. The thumb is driven by its own motor and the four fingers by a shared motor; the four fingers close together. For tasks that need independent motion per finger, the Dex5-1, Dex5-S or other five-finger hands are assessed.
The manufacturer states that the hand passed 100,000 fatigue cycles and more than 100 drop tests. Ingress protection is not published.
No. Feedback consists of joint position, speed, torque and temperature plus voltage and current. For projects that need tactile data, the tactile Dex3-1 or the Dex5-1P is assessed.
RS-485 with 1000 Hz communication. Supply is 24 to 60 V; static current is 0.1 A and the maximum current 1.5 A at 58 V.
