FAIRINO FR20 vs. KUKA LBR iisy 15 R930 Overview The FAIRINO FR20 and KUKA LBR iisy 15 R930 are six-axis collaborative robots designed for industrial automation, but they occupy different positions within the medium-to-heavy cobot market. The FAIRINO FR20 is a long-reach, high-payload collaborative robot intended for palletizing, large-machine tending, material handling, packaging and other applications where the robot must move relatively heavy products across a large work en

The FAIRINO FR3 and Rainbow Robotics RB3-730 are compact six-axis collaborative robots designed for lightweight automation. Both have a nominal payload of 3 kg and a 128 mm mounting footprint, but they prioritize different advantages. The FAIRINO FR3 is the stronger value-oriented choice. It offers better published repeatability, a lower direct purchase price, a published maximum payload of 5 kg, an optional IP65 configuration, and an 18-month manufacturer warranty. The Rainb

FAIRINO expands its portfolio with the ART7-R7 - a new generation of dual-arm humanoid robot featuring full-joint force control, high precision and an open architecture. Pre-orders are now open at a price of EUR 12,705 excl. VAT. The ART7-R7 is designed for applications that require the flexibility of human-like arm movement combined with precise force control and the ability to safely interact with its surroundings. 7-Axis Dual-Arm Humanoid Robot Each ART7-R7 arm features 7

We are pleased to announce the launch of our new AMR FR-AMR-300, a new addition to the FAIRINO product portfolio that combines autonomous mobile navigation with precise robotic manipulation. The FR-AMR-300 is designed to overcome the workspace limitations of traditional collaborative robots and enables flexible automation across different production and logistics environments. Key Highlights 1. Mobile Manipulation – “Move + Operate” The FR-AMR-300 can be equipped with FAIRINO

The FAIRINO FR5 and Mitsubishi MELFA ASSISTA RV-5AS-D are compact six-axis collaborative robots designed for many of the same automation projects: machine tending, pick and place, light assembly, testing, inspection, packaging, dispensing, laboratory automation, and repetitive material handling. Their nominal payload and reach specifications are remarkably close. Both are 5 kg-class cobots, both reach approximately 0.9 meters, both publish a maximum composite speed of 1 m/s,

The FAIRINO FR5 and OMRON TM5-900 are compact six-axis collaborative robots aimed at many of the same automation projects: machine tending, pick and place, inspection, light assembly, packaging, dispensing, testing, and repetitive material handling. They occupy a similar physical class, have nearly identical reach, and can be installed on a table, wall, or other suitable structure. However, they approach the automation problem from very different commercial and technical dire

Automation is often described as a technology purchase. In practice, it is a redesign of how work moves through a business. The machine matters, but it is rarely the first decision and never the whole solution. A successful project begins with a business constraint that can be measured: a machine that waits for an operator, a welding backlog that limits sales, an injury-prone lift, a packaging line that cannot keep pace, a quality check that varies by shift, or a repetitive t

The FAIRINO FR16 and OMRON TM16 are direct competitors in the 16 kg collaborative robot category. Both are six-axis cobots designed for heavy component handling, machine tending, assembly, packaging, palletizing, inspection and material transfer. Because both robots have the same standard payload, this comparison exposes their other differences particularly clearly. The FAIRINO FR16 provides more reach, tighter published repeatability, a substantially higher published speed a

The FAIRINO FR10 and OMRON TM12 are medium-payload collaborative robots designed for machine tending, assembly, packaging, inspection, material handling and other industrial automation applications. Although they occupy a similar market segment, they approach automation from different directions. The FAIRINO FR10 focuses on longer reach, tighter published repeatability, higher speed and substantially lower acquisition cost. FAIRINO USA publicly lists the robot for $10,199, ma

The FAIRINO FR16 and Hanwha HCR-12A are both medium-to-heavy payload collaborative robots, but they are not an exact payload match. The FAIRINO FR16 is a 16 kg cobot, while the Hanwha HCR-12A is a 12 kg cobot. The comparison is still useful because both robots target heavier automation tasks such as machine tending, automotive, metal processing, logistics, packaging, material handling, loading and unloading, and repetitive industrial workflows. The FAIRINO FR16 is a value-foc

The FAIRINO FR5 and Kawasaki CL105N are both compact 5 kg six-axis collaborative robots. This is a clean comparison because both robots sit in the same payload class and target applications such as pick and place, light assembly, inspection, compact machine tending, sealing, packaging, testing, electronics handling, and small-part automation. The FAIRINO FR5 is a value-focused 5 kg cobot with 5 kg nominal payload, 7 kg published maximum payload, 922 mm reach, ±0.02 mm movemen

The FAIRINO FR3 and Kawasaki CL103N are both compact 3 kg six-axis collaborative robots. This is a clean comparison because both robots target small-payload automation such as pick and place, light assembly, inspection, machine tending, sealing, electronics handling, and compact workcell automation. The FAIRINO FR3 is a value-focused compact cobot with 3 kg payload, 5 kg published maximum payload, 622 mm reach, ±0.02 mm repeatability, 1 m/s typical TCP speed, IP54 / IP65 opti

The FAIRINO FR20 and Kassow KR1824 are both heavy-payload collaborative robots for palletizing, packaging, logistics, machine tending, and end-of-line automation. This comparison is strong because both robots are in the heavy cobot category, but they compete on very different value propositions. The FAIRINO FR20 is a 6-axis collaborative robot with 20 kg nominal payload, 25 kg published maximum payload, 1,854 mm reach, 2 m/s typical TCP speed, IP54 / IP65 optional protection,

The FAIRINO FR16 and Kassow KR1410 are both industrial collaborative robots, but this is not a perfect payload-match comparison. The FAIRINO FR16 is a 6-axis cobot with 16 kg payload, a published 20 kg maximum payload, 1,034 mm reach, ±0.03 mm repeatability, 2 m/s typical TCP speed, IP54 / IP65 optional protection, and a public U.S. listed price of $11,699. FAIRINO USA also positions the FR16 for palletizing, CNC / machine tending, heavy pick and place, screwdriving, dispensi

The FAIRINO FR20 and Yaskawa Motoman HC20DTP are both 20 kg six-axis collaborative robots designed for heavy-payload industrial automation. This is a strong comparison because both robots sit in the same 20 kg payload class, but they are positioned for very different buyers. The FAIRINO FR20 is a value-focused 20 kg cobot with public U.S. pricing, a published 25 kg maximum payload figure, 1,854 mm reach, optional IP65 protection, flexible mounting, and strong ROI positioning.
