Industrial Robot FAQs

What is an industrial robot, and what are its applications?

Industrial robots are programmable machines designed to automate various tasks in industrial settings that can perform repetitive, complex, or even dangerous tasks with precision and consistency. They are used in many applications, including assembly, welding, material handling, packaging, painting, inspection, and more.

What is the used robot’s payload capacity and reach?

Understanding the payload capacity and reach of a machine is a vital consideration, depending on the specific application and the size and weight of the objects the robot will handle. Payload capacity is the maximum weight the robot can handle, while reach refers to the maximum distance the robot can extend its arm. Verify both through the machine specification details or with the used equipment dealer.
