Epson C4 Compact 6-Axis Robots

C4-product
High Speed - Exceptional Flexibility
  • Fast Cycle Times with crisp motion
  • Best in Class Motion Range
  • Compact design for maximum flexibility
  • ISO Clean & ESD Compliant Models

The Epson C4 compact 6-Axis robots continues the tradition of setting new standards for small sized 6-axis robot performance. As the leader in compact 6-Axis robots, our new Epson C4 design includes a unique compact wrist pitch as well as a slim body elbow design. With outstanding flexibility, Epson C4 robots were made for big jobs in tiny spaces. Our goal was to build a robust robot in a compact shell capable of meeting Epson's high performance standards. The new Epson C4 does that and more by allowing payloads up to 4Kg while maintaining fast speeds and cycle times.

The Epson C4 cycle times are 0.37 seconds which is faster than many competitors SCARA models. All 6 joints on the C4 are on average 32.4% faster than equivalent competitor models in its' class. The C4's footprint to motion range ratio is in a class by itself and the outstanding flexibility allows Epson robots to do jobs that other small 6 axis arms simply cannot do (or that take much more cycle time to complete).
