AXIS-6ROBOT
Six-axis collaborative robot / reach 1,420 mm
A six-axis collaborative robot built for cells that run three shifts and cannot afford a dramatic afternoon. Twelve kilos of payload, twenty microns of repeatability, and a controller that speaks to everything on your floor.
Payload12kg
Reach1,420mm
Repeatability±0.02mm
Safety first: force-limited operation, dual-channel monitoring and a 24 V safety I/O. ISO/TS 15066 validated.

No drama.
Just cycles.
A robot is only as good as its ten-thousandth cycle. Every AXIS-6 is run-in for 72 hours before it leaves the factory.
02 / accuracyrepeatable
±0.02 mm, verified
Every joint is laser-tracked at the factory. Repeatability is measured, not asserted on a slide.

The honest curves.
Payload falls as reach increases; cycle time rises as the cell gets more careful. These are the numbers our integration partners use.

Not the other way.
AXIS-6 arrives with a controller, a five-metre cable set and a documented API. Most cells are running a first program within a day.

Safety
Safety
A machine is a promise
Safe is a verb.
Compliance is the floor, not the achievement. We design every collaborative cell around the person who has to stand next to it for eight hours.
AXIS-6 is force-limited and speed-monitored in collaborative mode, with a safety architecture that fails to a safe state. A dedicated safety input isolates drive power; the tool flange supports a second, independent enable circuit.
We work with your risk assessment from day one. The integration package includes force/pressure measurements for the end effector, speed and separation monitoring templates, and a validation checklist for ISO/TS 15066.
