PUDU Pudubot 2 Universal Delivery Robot (PD9)
Most delivery robots are built around a fixed shelf, and the venue adapts its workflow to whatever that shelf can hold. The PUDU Pudubot 2 Universal Delivery Robot (PD9) reverses that logic. It ships with three trays and accepts up to seven, so the same machine can run a few large platters at lunch, many small plates at dinner, or a stack of amenity kits in a hotel corridor. Add dual lidar with 360° sensing, maps of up to 40,000 ㎡ and auto-recharging, and you have a robot designed to fit the operation rather than the other way around. The sections below set out what the manufacturer has published and what it has not.
Robots USA sells the PuduBot 2 and supplies it to commercial operators as a managed project. Robots USA prepares the quotation, arranges delivery to your site, and stays your point of contact for configuration, mapping questions and after-sales support, so your venue works with one supplier from the first conversation to everyday service.
Background
PUDU ROBOTICS and its service robot range
PUDU ROBOTICS develops commercial service robots for hospitality, retail and similar settings, and press coverage reports that the company is based in Shenzhen, China. Its range covers tray delivery robots, reception and advertising models, building delivery units and cleaning robots, all aimed at the repetitive carrying and floor tasks that consume staff time. The PuduBot name sits in the tray delivery segment: autonomous shelf units that move food, dishes and supplies between a pickup point and the place where they are needed. Buyers comparing the wider lineup can browse our Commercial Robots category.
Positioning: a configurable workhorse with open software
The PuduBot 2 is positioned as a general-purpose carrier rather than a single-venue specialist. Three design choices support that. First, the configurable tray stack, from a default of three up to a maximum of seven. Second, the navigation package: dual lidar with 360° sensing, mapping of extra-large scenes up to 40,000 ㎡, and, per PUDU, better mobility in semi-outdoor environments plus a 30% improvement in moving stability across various road surfaces. Third, the software: PUDU OS supports third-party development, customization and expansion, which matters to operators who want the robot to work alongside their own ordering or building systems rather than as an isolated gadget.

How much ground can the PuduBot 2 cover in a working day?
Coverage comes down to three figures: map size, speed and runtime. On mapping, PUDU states support for extra-large scenes up to 40,000 ㎡, which puts large food courts, multi-zone hotels, exhibition halls and corporate canteens within reach of a single deployment rather than only a compact dining room. On speed, cruise speed runs from 0.5 m/s to 1.2 m/s, so the robot can slow down in crowded areas and move briskly down open corridors.
On runtime, the published battery life is 12h (None load) and 15h (Full load), with a charging time of 4h on a high performance Li-ion battery. Auto-recharging without manual intervention means the robot can return to its dock on its own instead of waiting for a staff member to notice a low battery. We recommend confirming the runtime figures against the datasheet at quotation, because the published load labels are unusual and real duty cycles depend on your route profile.
One constraint to plan for is the path width of 80 cm. Aisles between tables, service corridors and doorways along the route need to meet that clearance, and Robots USA reviews your floor plan with you before installation. The climbing angle has not been published, so ramps and thresholds are checked at quotation as well.
What does the adjustable tray stack change in daily service?
A fixed shelf forces a trade-off between tray height and tray count. With the PuduBot 2, each tray measures 52*43.2 cm, and the operator can run the default three or expand up to seven. Fewer trays leave tall clearance for bowls, pitchers or bus tubs; more trays turn the robot into a dense rack for small plates, parcels or room amenities. The maximum load of 40 kg applies to the whole configuration, so heavy dish returns and light multi-stop runs both fit within one published limit.
Stability matters as much as capacity when the load is soup or glassware. PUDU reports a 30% improvement in moving stability and adaptation to various road surfaces, and dual lidar gives the robot a full 360° view of its surroundings. Details of any additional obstacle avoidance sensors, as well as the display and speaker, have not been published; Robots USA confirms them at quotation so you know exactly how the robot will interact with guests and staff.
Who is the PuduBot 2 for?
The PuduBot 2 suits operators whose bottleneck is the constant back-and-forth between a pickup point and the point of service. Full-service restaurants and hot pot or dim sum venues can use it for food runs and dish returns. Hotels and serviced apartments can send it with linens, amenities or room service. Large canteens, food courts, banquet halls and event venues benefit from the extra-large mapping area, while venues with covered terraces or connected patios may value the stated better mobility in semi-outdoor environments, keeping in mind that no ingress protection rating has been published.
Integrators and multi-site groups form another segment. Because PUDU OS supports third-party development, customization and expansion, the robot can become part of a broader automation plan instead of a standalone unit. If your requirement leans toward guest reception, on-screen advertising, multi-floor building delivery or cleaning, other PUDU models may be a closer match, and our Delivery Robots category is the place to compare them. Robots USA can help you decide which machine fits each part of your operation.
What is the PuduBot 2 used for?
- Table delivery: carrying plated dishes from the kitchen pass to the dining floor so servers stay with guests.
- Dish return: collecting used plates and glassware back to the dish station within the published load limit.
- Hotel item runs: moving linens, amenities and guest orders along long corridors on a stored map.
- Canteen and food court logistics: covering large mapped floor areas between serving lines and seating zones.
- Banquets and events: running repeated trips with an expanded tray stack during peak service windows.
- Semi-outdoor service: connecting indoor kitchens with covered terraces where conditions allow.

Summary
The PuduBot 2 earns its place by letting the venue set the shape of the job: three trays or seven, short dining room loops or a map up to 40,000 ㎡, standalone service or integration through PUDU OS. Dual lidar with 360° sensing, a 40 kg maximum load and auto-recharging back that flexibility with published hardware, while items the manufacturer has not specified, from IP rating to package contents, are confirmed openly at quotation. If you want a delivery robot that adapts to your operation instead of dictating it, this page is the starting point.
