Overview

Overview

Even though its footprint may not be much larger than a DIN A4 sheet, the RC180 is a true space wonder, and extremely powerful to boot. The small clever one with the outstanding cost-performance ratio was mainly designed for slave operation within a network.

The Epson RC180 can be used equally for SCARA robots and 6-axis robots. Moreover, the option units designed as a modular system provide further interfaces and technology modules.

Lightweight

Basic unit for SCARA robots: 7.5 kg

Basic unit for 6-axis robots: 9 kg

Option unit: 1 kg

Advantages of Epson RC180
