igus Room Gantry RG-0001 Cartesian Robot, 500x500x100mm, 2.5kg

igus®

$9,795.00

igus Room Gantry RG-0001: compact benchtop Cartesian robot with 500x500x100mm work envelope, 2.5kg payload, 0.8mm repeatability, and Windows graphical programming for pick and place, inspection, and light assembly in labs and small manufacturers.

igus Room Gantry RG-0001 Cartesian Robot for Benchtop Automation:

The igus Room Gantry RG-0001 is a three-degree-of-freedom cartesian gantry robot designed for compact, benchtop automation in laboratory, industrial, and research settings.

  • Working area: 500 x 500 x 100 mm
  • Payload: up to 2.5 kg
  • Repeatability: 0.8 mm
  • System weight: 8.4 kg

Frame and Components:

The RG-0001 is constructed with igus drylin linear motion technology, providing maintenance-free operation and smooth movement. The structure uses lightweight, corrosion-resistant materials suited for demanding environments and continuous use.

Control and Connectivity:

Control options include igus Robot Control and Dryve D1 motor controllers, compatible with Modbus TCP/IP, CANopen, ROS, digital I/O, and LabVIEW. The cartesian robot is programmed via a 3D graphical interface on Windows 10, with optional touchscreen handheld or gamepad control for autonomous operation after setup.

Applications and Compatibility:

The RG-0001 is used in pick and place, laboratory automation, inspection, and light assembly. The gantry robot supports integration of camera systems, grippers, and accessories for customized automation, including bin-picking. For related options, see the Cartesian / Linear / Gantry Robots category and compatible robotic accessories.

Installation and Power Requirements:

The system is designed for desktop mounting and connects to standard electronic controllers. Refer to specifications for voltage and connector compatibility.

Decision Criteria:

  • Suitable for users needing repeatable, moderate precision in confined spaces
  • Flexible controller support and integration with automation platforms
  • Lightweight structure for easy installation and relocation

  • Suitable for pick and place, laboratory automation, inspection, and light assembly tasks.
The RG-0001 handles pick and place, laboratory automation, inspection tasks, and light assembly work in research labs, small to medium enterprises, and industrial settings. It accepts grippers and cameras for customized automation including bin-picking applications.
The RG-0001 has a 500 x 500 x 100 mm working area with a maximum payload of 2.5 kg and repeatable accuracy of 0.8 mm. The entire system weighs just 8.4 kg, making it suitable for desktop mounting.
The RG-0001 is controlled via igus Robot Control or Dryve D1 and programmed through a 3D graphical interface on Windows 10. It supports Modbus TCP/IP, CANopen, ROS, digital I/Os, and LabVIEW, with optional touchscreen handheld or gamepad control for autonomous operation.
The RG-0001 uses maintenance-free drylin linear motion technology and features corrosion-resistant construction, requiring no regular maintenance during normal operation.
Yes, the RG-0001 is designed for desktop mounting and weighs only 8.4 kg, making it easy to install and relocate on benchtops in laboratory or industrial environments.

Cartesian gantry robots versus articulated robot arms for benchtop automation:

The igus Room Gantry RG-0001 is a three-axis linear robot optimized for compact, repeatable tasks in tight workspaces, where a traditional robot arm would be too large or require complex programming. Choose this gantry for light automation that prioritizes precision in confined areas over reach and flexibility.

  • For parts under 2.5 kg in spaces under 500 x 500 mm, the fixed cartesian frame delivers 0.8 mm repeatability without the programming overhead of a multi-joint arm.
  • In lab automation and inspection workflows, the desktop-mountable 8.4 kg system integrates directly with cameras and grippers via standard I/O, CANopen, and Modbus without custom mounting brackets.
  • Light pick-and-place and bin-picking tasks benefit from the maintenance-free drylin linear motion and corrosion-resistant build, reducing downtime in research and SME environments.
  • Intuitive 3D graphical Windows 10 programming eliminates the need for robot-specific code, shortening setup time for changing tasks or operators.
