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.
- 3 kg 4th 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.
- 590 mm 6th pct in class
- Repeatability
How close the robot returns to the same taught point on repeated tries (ISO 9283, ±). Lower is better — tighter precision.
- 0.02 mm 74th 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.
- 6
Motion range & speed
Per-axis travel limits and rotational speeds.
- Max axis speed
Highest rotational speed of the fastest joint. Higher helps short, fast moves.
- 200 °/s 35th pct in class
Motion range and maximum speed per joint.
| Axis | Range | Max speed |
|---|---|---|
| J1 | -180° to 180° | 170 °/s |
| J2 | -135° to 135° | 170 °/s |
| J3 | -150° to 150° | 180 °/s |
| J4 | -180° to 180° | 180 °/s |
| J5 | -180° to 180° | 200 °/s |
| J6 | -360° to 360° | 200 °/s |
Physical
Size, mass and how it mounts.
- Mounting
Orientations the robot can be installed in (floor, ceiling/inverted, wall, tilted, mobile base).
- floor, ceiling, wall, any
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.
- IP66 73th pct in class
- 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
- Safety standards
Certified safety standards (ISO 10218-1, ISO/TS 15066) and functional-safety level (PLd/PLe, SIL2/3).
- ISO 10218-1, ISO/TS 15066
- Cert. cobot payload
Payload at which collaborative (force-limited) operation is still certified.
- 3 kg 3th pct in class
Control & software
Programming, languages and ecosystem.
- Programming
How the robot is taught: pendant, hand-guiding (lead-through), block/flow-chart, scripting, offline simulation.
- hand-guiding, graphical, teach-pendant
- Offline programming
Whether programs can be built and validated offline in a digital twin before deployment.
- Yes
Safety certifications
- ISO 10218-1 — the primary industrial-robot safety standard covering design and construction requirements
- ISO/TS 15066 — the safety standard for collaborative robots working near people (force and speed limits)
