Dobot CR3A Cobot, 6-axis, 620mm reach, 3kg payload

Dobot Robotics

$26,600.00

Dobot CR3A is a 6-axis collaborative robot with 620 mm reach and 3 kg payload, delivering 0.02 mm repeatability in a lightweight 16.5 kg frame. Rated IP54, it fits compact workspaces and supports pick and place, lab automation, inspection, and light assembly through DobotStudio, Modbus, TCP/IP, and ROS integration.

Dobot CR3A Cobot, 6-Axis Collaborative Robot for Compact Workspaces:

The Dobot CR3A is a six-axis collaborative robot arm engineered for precision automation in constrained industrial, research, and educational environments.

Key Specifications Overview:

  • Reach: 620 mm
  • Payload: 3 kg
  • Repeatability: 0.02 mm
  • Weight: 16.5 kg
  • Ingress Protection: IP54 rated
  • Service Life: 32,000 hours

Applications and Use Cases:

The Dobot CR3A cobot is suited for pick and place operations, quality inspection, lab automation, and light assembly tasks where accuracy and safety are essential. The compact footprint allows seamless integration into crowded or small production cells, benchtop setups, and teaching labs.

Educational facilities and research labs benefit from the CR3A's ease of programming and path teaching by demonstration. The collaborative design ensures it can safely work alongside human operators, expanding use cases in workspace-sharing environments.

Integration, Compatibility and Ecosystem:

The Dobot CR3A utilizes DobotStudio, DobotLink, Modbus, TCP/IP, Ethernet/IP, and ROS for flexible integration with various controllers and industrial automation protocols. The robot can be deployed with Dobot's full controller range, and is compatible with a wide selection of end effectors, including grippers and sensors available in the Robots & Accessories and Grippers categories.

Decision Criteria and Model Positioning:

The CR3A is an optimal choice in the Dobot CR series for applications where the 3 kg payload and 620 mm reach meet requirements in limited spaces. Compared to higher-payload models such as the Dobot CR5, the CR3A offers a lighter, more compact solution for desktop and benchtop automation scenarios where throughput does not exceed a 3 kg load. The IP54 rating makes it suitable for environments with moderate dust or splashing water, but not washdown zones.

Potential buyers considering a 6 DoF cobot robot for precise movement, user-friendly setup, and strong integration with ROS or common industrial interfaces will find the Dobot CR3A to be a competitive candidate among collaborative robots in its payload class.

Common Questions About Dobot CR3A:

  • What is the CR3A rated for? The CR3A supports 3 kg payload and is rated for 32,000 hours of service life, with IP54 protection.
  • Does Dobot CR3A work with ROS? Yes, Dobot CR3A supports Robot Operating System (ROS) integration for open-source automation projects.
  • What applications use the Dobot CR3A? Common uses include pick-and-place, inspection, lab automation, and assembly in space-limited zones.
  • How does CR3A differ from CR5? The CR3A is lighter and designed for tighter spaces where the 3 kg, 620 mm reach specification is sufficient.

The Dobot CR3A has an IP54 rating, which means it handles moderate dust and splash exposure. It is not suitable for washdown zones or continuous wet conditions.
Yes, the Dobot CR3A supports Robot Operating System (ROS) integration along with Ethernet/IP, TCP/IP, and Modbus for flexible automation setup.
The Dobot CR3A is suited for pick and place operations, quality inspection, lab automation, and light assembly tasks where precision and safety are important.
The Dobot CR3A delivers 0.02 mm repeatability, enabling precise and consistent task execution for inspection and assembly work.
Yes, the CR3A is designed for compact workstations and tight spaces with a 620 mm reach and 16.5 kg weight, making it ideal for benchtop and desktop automation.
The Dobot CR3A has a rated service life of 32,000 hours.

Collaborative robot for tight spaces vs. larger industrial arms:

The Dobot CR3A is a compact 6-axis cobot designed for benchtop and constrained workstations where lighter payloads and smaller footprints are priorities. It contrasts with larger industrial robots and heavier cobots that demand more floor space and suit higher-payload production lines.

  • For parts under 3 kg in crowded cells, the 620 mm reach and 16.5 kg weight fit workbenches where larger arms cannot deploy.
  • When precision matters over speed, the 0.02 mm repeatability handles inspection, lab automation, and light assembly tasks that general-purpose arms struggle with.
  • In education and research labs, teach-by-demonstration and DobotStudio programming reduce setup time compared to text-based industrial robot coding.
  • For moderate dust or splash exposure (IP54 rated), the CR3A works in light manufacturing and lab environments; not suitable for washdown zones requiring IP67 or higher.
  • ROS and Ethernet/IP integration enable flexible deployment in research projects and mixed automation stacks without proprietary controller lock-in.
