Techman Robot
TM5S
Compact member of Techman's AI Cobot S Series — a 5 kg payload at 900 mm reach sits between the base TM5 (4 kg) and TM7 (7 kg) classes, aimed at 3D bin picking, assembly, PCB handling and quality inspection where desk-scale footprint matters.
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.
- 5 kg 18th 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.
- 900 mm 28th pct in class
- Repeatability
How close the robot returns to the same taught point on repeated tries (ISO 9283, ±). Lower is better — tighter precision.
- 0.03 mm 50th 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
- Max TCP speed
Top linear speed of the tool centre point. Higher means faster cycle times.
- 1,400 mm/s 32th pct in class
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.
- 450 °/s 87th pct in class
Motion range and maximum speed per joint.
| Axis | Range | Max speed |
|---|---|---|
| J1 | -360° to 360° | 210 °/s |
| J2 | -360° to 360° | 210 °/s |
| J3 | -158° to 158° | 210 °/s |
| J4 | -360° to 360° | 225 °/s |
| J5 | -360° to 360° | 225 °/s |
| J6 | -360° to 360° | 450 °/s |
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.
- 24 kg
- Mounting
Orientations the robot can be installed in (floor, ceiling/inverted, wall, tilted, mobile base).
- floor, ceiling, wall, tilted
Power & controller
Electrical supply and the control cabinet that drives it.
- Power supply
Required input voltage / phase for the controller.
- 100-240 V AC
- Power draw
Typical operating power consumption. Lower is more efficient.
- 240 W 75th pct in class
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 5th pct in class
- Operating temp
Ambient temperature range for normal operation.
- 0 to 50 °C
- Cleanroom class
ISO 14644-1 cleanroom rating the robot is certified for. Lower number = cleaner environment.
- 3 ISO 60th 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).
- 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, PLd Cat.3
- Collab features
Collaborative safety functions: power-force-limiting, speed-and-separation monitoring, hand-guiding, safety-rated stops.
- power-force-limiting, speed-and-separation-monitoring, safety-rated-stop, hand-guiding
- Cert. cobot payload
Payload at which collaborative (force-limited) operation is still certified.
- 5 kg 16th 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.
- teach-pendant, lead-through, flow-chart, script
- Languages
Native robot programming language(s) — e.g. KRL (KUKA), RAPID (ABB), URScript (UR), INFORM (Yaskawa).
- TMflow Script
- Simulation
Offline programming / simulation software for the robot.
- TMflow Studio
- 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.).
- EtherNet/IP, PROFINET, Modbus TCP, EtherCAT
- Digital I/O
Built-in digital inputs/outputs for grippers, sensors and signalling.
- 16 in / 16 out
- Analog I/O
Built-in analog inputs/outputs.
- 2 in / 2 out
- Integrated vision
Whether a camera / vision system is built into the robot or controller.
- 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)
- PLd Cat.3 — high safety-integrity (PLd) with a dual-channel architecture that tolerates one fault without losing the safety function
