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.

Reach

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

Axes (DOF)

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

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.
