Epson Robots
GX4
Epson’s GX SCARA generation in the 4 kg class - 2 kg rated / 4 kg maximum payload across 250, 300 and 350 mm arms, a 150 mm Z stroke and cycle times from 0.33 s, on the RC700D controller. Epson publishes joint 1/2 repeatability as +/-0.008 to +/-0.010 mm across the arm lengths rather than one figure, so no single value is recorded here.

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.
- 4 kg 17th pct in class
- Payload at full reach
Manufacturer-stated payload at the wrist when the arm is at (or near) maximum horizontal reach. Often 20-40% below the headline rated payload because leverage and inertia rise with extension. Higher means it keeps more usable capacity at the edge of its envelope.
- 2 kg 60th 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.
- 350 mm 3th 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
- Std cycle time
Time for a standard 25/305/25 mm pick-place move where published. Lower is faster.
- 0.35 s 50th pct in class
Motion range & speed
Per-axis travel limits and rotational speeds.
Motion range and maximum speed per joint.
| Axis | Range | Max speed |

Physical
Size, mass and how it mounts.
- Mounting
Orientations the robot can be installed in (floor, ceiling/inverted, wall, tilted, mobile base).
- tabletop
Environment
Conditions it can operate in — dust, water, temperature, cleanliness.
- Cleanroom class
ISO 14644-1 cleanroom rating the robot is certified for. Lower number = cleaner environment.
- 3 ISO 10th pct in class
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).
- UL 1740, CE
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+
- Simulation
Offline programming / simulation software for the robot.
- Epson RC+
- Offline programming
Whether programs can be built and validated offline in a digital twin before deployment.
- Yes
Safety certifications
- UL 1740 — UL certification — North American safety listing confirming compliance with product-safety standards
- CE — CE marking — confirms conformity with EU product-safety directives for the European market
