Epson Robots
G20
Epson's largest G-Series SCARA with 20 kg payload and 850 or 1000 mm reach, delivering ±0.025 mm repeatability at up to 11,000 mm/s combined speed. Optional IP54/IP65 and cleanroom configurations available.
Full specifications
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.
- 20 kg 79th 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.
- 850 mm 81th pct in class
- Repeatability
How close the robot returns to the same taught point on repeated tries (ISO 9283, ±). Lower is better — tighter precision.
- 0.025 mm 7th 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.
- 4
- Max TCP speed
Top linear speed of the tool centre point. Higher means faster cycle times.
- 11,000 mm/s 96th pct in class

Motion range and maximum speed per joint.
| Axis | Range | Max speed |
|---|---|---|

| J2 | -152.5° to 152.5° | — |
| J4 | -360° to 360° | — |
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.
- 48 kg
- Mounting
Orientations the robot can be installed in (floor, ceiling/inverted, wall, tilted, mobile base).
- floor, ceiling, wall
Power & controller
Electrical supply and the control cabinet that drives it.
- Controller
The control cabinet / unit that runs the robot.
- RC700A
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.
- IP20 0th pct in class
- Operating temp
Ambient temperature range for normal operation.
- 5 to 40 °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).
- No
- Safety standards
Certified safety standards (ISO 10218-1, ISO/TS 15066) and functional-safety level (PLd/PLe, SIL2/3).
- ISO 10218-1
Control & software
Programming, languages and ecosystem.
- Programming
How the robot is taught: pendant, hand-guiding (lead-through), block/flow-chart, scripting, offline simulation.
- teach-pendant, offline-sim
- Languages
Native robot programming language(s) — e.g. KRL (KUKA), RAPID (ABB), URScript (UR), INFORM (Yaskawa).
- SPEL+
- 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.).
- PROFINET, EtherNet/IP, EtherCAT
