Cobot Articles

The FAIRINO FR20 and OMRON TM20 are direct competitors in the 20 kg collaborative robot category. Both are six-axis cobots designed for palletizing, packaging, heavy machine tending, material transfer, assembly, inspection and other industrial automation applications. The FAIRINO FR20 emphasizes exceptionally long reach, higher published speed, additional payload headroom and low acquisition cost. Its 1,854 mm reach is unusually long for a cobot with a 20 kg nominal payload,

The FAIRINO FR16 and OMRON TM12 are medium-to-high-payload collaborative robots designed for machine tending, material handling, assembly, packaging, inspection and other demanding automation applications. However, their engineering priorities are significantly different. The FAIRINO FR16 emphasizes payload capacity, speed, repeatability and low acquisition cost. It provides a 16 kg nominal payload, a published 20 kg maximum payload and a 2 m/s typical TCP speed for a public

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
