Evidence notes
- The six-axis arm combines a 35 kg payload with a 2,030 mm maximum reach.
- New joint torque sensors improve collision response, while hand guiding supports direct teaching.
- A 270 mm base footprint and internally routed Cat6A and wrist cabling simplify installation in space-constrained cells; sales began on 11 May 2026.
Company context
