Performance

How much it lifts, how far it reaches, how precisely it repeats.

Payload

Maximum mass the robot can carry at the wrist flange, including the gripper/tool. Higher means it can handle heavier parts.

2 kg
3th pct in class
Reach

Maximum horizontal distance from the base axis to the wrist — defines the size of the work area. Higher means a larger envelope.

625 mm
7th pct in class
Repeatability

How close the robot returns to the same taught point on repeated tries (ISO 9283, ±). Lower is better — tighter precision.

0.05 mm
9th pct in class
Axes (DOF)

Number of independently driven joints / degrees of freedom. 6 is standard for articulated arms; 4 for SCARA/palletizers; 7 adds elbow redundancy.

Max TCP speed

Top linear speed of the tool centre point. Higher means faster cycle times.

Physical

Size, mass and how it mounts.

Robot weight

Mass of the manipulator (arm) without controller. Lighter eases mounting and mobile use; heavier often means stiffer/higher payload.

11 kg
Mounting

Orientations the robot can be installed in (floor, ceiling/inverted, wall, tilted, mobile base).

floor, ceiling, wall, any

Power & controller

Electrical supply and the control cabinet that drives it.

Power draw

Typical operating power consumption. Lower is more efficient.

Environment

Conditions it can operate in — dust, water, temperature, cleanliness.

IP rating (arm)

Ingress protection of the body against dust/water (IEC 60529). First digit = dust, second = water. Higher resists harsher environments.

IP54

Operating temp

Ambient temperature range for normal operation.

0 to 50 °C

Safety

Standards met and collaborative-operation capability.

Collaborative

Whether the robot is designed to work safely next to people without fencing (power-and-force-limited).

Yes
Cert. cobot payload

Payload at which collaborative (force-limited) operation is still certified.

Control & software

Programming, languages and ecosystem.

Programming

How the robot is taught: pendant, hand-guiding (lead-through), block/flow-chart, scripting, offline simulation.

Languages

Native robot programming language(s) — e.g. KRL (KUKA), RAPID (ABB), URScript (UR), INFORM (Yaskawa).

C++, C#, Python
ROS support

Robot Operating System driver availability (none / ROS 1 / ROS 2 / both).

Offline programming

Whether programs can be built and validated offline in a digital twin before deployment.

Yes

Connectivity & I/O

Signals, fieldbuses and tooling interfaces.

Fieldbus

Industrial networks supported for PLC/cell integration (PROFINET, EtherNet/IP, EtherCAT, Modbus TCP, CC-Link, etc.).

Modbus TCP, Modbus RTU
Integrated vision

Whether a camera / vision system is built into the robot or controller.

No
