Robots for material handling
Material handling is the broadest robot application: moving parts, bins, castings, or loads from one point to another across a cell or line. Payload spans the full range, from a few kilograms to over a tonne, so the decision starts with matching rated payload to your heaviest load plus tooling, then checking the payload at full reach, which is always lower than the headline figure.
133 matching models in our database, payload up to 1700 kg.
What matters when you spec a material handling robot
- ●Payload: spans the full range; match it to your heaviest load plus tooling.
- ●Payload at full reach: the effective capacity at the edge of the envelope is lower than the headline number.
- ●Reach: must cover the pick and place points and any intermediate positions.
- ●Footprint: floor space and mounting options (floor, ceiling, wall) for the cell layout.

Buyer guides for material handling
Frequently asked questions
- How much payload do I need for material handling?
- It spans the full range. Match the rated payload to your heaviest load plus tooling, and then check the payload at full reach, which is lower than the headline figure.
- Cobot or industrial arm for material handling?
- Cobots handle lighter loads with human collaboration and fast redeployment. For heavy loads, long reach, or high throughput, a fenced industrial arm is the right tool.
