igus®
igus drylin RG-0012 is a 3-axis Cartesian gantry robot for pick and place, material handling, and light assembly. It delivers 5 kg payload capacity, 0.5 m/s speed, and 0.5 mm repeatability across an 800x800x500 mm workspace. Built on drylin linear modules with stepper motors, it integrates via ROS, Modbus TCP/IP, LabVIEW, and digital I/O, with control options in cabinet or DIN rail format.
The igus drylin RG-0012 Cartesian gantry robot is a three-axis gantry robot system designed for precise pick and place, laboratory automation, packaging and light assembly tasks in manufacturing and research environments.
What is a cartesian gantry robot? A cartesian gantry robot uses three linear axes in X, Y, and Z, allowing programmable movement for pick and place and automated handling within a defined workspace.
How to integrate the RG-0012 gantry robot? The igus drylin RG-0012 connects to igus Robot Control hardware via digital I/O, ROS, Modbus TCP/IP, or LabVIEW. Control hardware options support cabinet mounting or DIN rail installation and are compatible with the drylin series for seamless integration.
Best for: The RG-0012 gantry robot system is recommended for cost-sensitive automation projects, small and medium production lines, laboratory workflows, and environments where low-maintenance robotics are required.
Comparison and maintenance information: Compared to conventional gantry robots, the drylin RG-0012 prioritises easy maintenance and cost-efficiency. Maintenance requirements are reduced through dry-running linear modules and modularity for simple replacement or servicing.

Product model: igus drylin RG-0012.
The igus drylin RG-0012 is a fixed-footprint gantry system suited to high-speed repetitive pick and place in confined spaces, whereas articulated arms offer greater reach and flexibility for complex trajectories. Choose the RG-0012 when workspace is defined and precision matters more than mobility.
