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 FR16 and KUKA LBR iisy 15 R930 are medium-to-high-payload collaborative robots designed for demanding automation applications. Both can be deployed for CNC machine tending, material handling, packaging, assembly, inspection, screwdriving, dispensing, light palletizing and other repetitive industrial processes. The two cobots are closely matched in nominal payload but differ significantly in reach, repeatability, software ecosystem and acquisition cost. The FAIRINO

The FAIRINO FR10 and KUKA LBR iisy 11 R1300 occupy a highly competitive segment of the collaborative-robot market. Both are six-axis cobots designed for medium-payload automation, including machine tending, material handling, packaging, assembly, inspection, welding and light palletizing. On paper, their core performance specifications are remarkably close. The FAIRINO has a 10 kg rated payload, while the KUKA is rated for 11 kg. The FR10 reaches 1,400 mm, giving it 100 mm mo

Choosing between the FAIRINO FR5 and the KUKA LBR iisy 6 R1300 is not simply a question of selecting the robot with the longest reach or the lowest purchase price. These two collaborative robots approach automation from different directions. The FAIRINO FR5 is a compact and cost-effective 5 kg cobot designed to make precision automation accessible to manufacturers, integrators, educational institutions and small production facilities. It combines a public U.S. price of $7,999

The FAIRINO FR3 and KUKA LBR iisy 3 R760 are compact six-axis collaborative robots designed for lightweight industrial automation. Both robots have a nominal payload of 3 kg, support flexible mounting and can automate applications such as electronics assembly, inspection, laboratory handling, machine tending, dispensing, testing and pick-and-place operations. Despite sharing the same nominal payload class, these cobots represent very different purchasing strategies. The FAIRI

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 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 FR30 and Hanwha HCR-32 are both heavy-payload collaborative robots designed for demanding automation tasks such as palletizing, heavy pick and place, machine tending, material handling, logistics, packaging, and high-load manufacturing workflows. This is a strong comparison because the models are close in payload class: FAIRINO FR30 = 30 kg nominal payload / 35 kg max published payload, lower public price, ROI-focused heavy cobot value. Hanwha HCR-32 = 32 kg nomin

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 Hanwha HCR-5A are both 5 kg six-axis collaborative robots designed for light-payload industrial automation. This is a clean comparison because both robots target similar applications: pick and place, light assembly, inspection, packaging, compact machine tending, dispensing, testing, and repetitive manufacturing tasks. The FAIRINO FR5 is a value-focused collaborative robot with 5 kg payload, 7 kg max published payload, 922 mm reach, ±0.02 mm repeatability,

The FAIRINO FR10 and Kawasaki CL108N are both real six-axis collaborative robots, but this is not an exact payload match. The comparison is still useful because both robots target industrial cobot applications such as machine tending, packaging, pick and place, assembly, inspection, material handling, and production-line automation. The FAIRINO FR10 is a 10 kg cobot with 10 kg nominal payload, 14 kg max published payload, 1,400 mm reach, ±0.05 mm repeatability, 1.5 m/s typica

The FAIRINO FR30 and Kassow KR1240 are both heavy-payload collaborative robots, but they are not identical competitors. The FAIRINO FR30 is a 6-axis, 30 kg-class cobot focused on value, public pricing, longer reach, and ROI. The Kassow KR1240 is a 7-axis, 40 kg-class cobot focused on higher nominal payload, compact heavy handling, and flexible motion in constrained industrial workcells. FAIRINO’s official FR30 page lists 30 kg payload, 35 kg max payload, 1,403 mm reach, 6 rot

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
