igus drylin RG-0012 Cartesian gantry robot, 800x800x500mm, 5kg

igus®

$7,195.00

Three-axis Cartesian gantry robot with 800x800x500mm workspace, 5kg payload, and 0.5mm repeatability. Ideal for pick and place, lab automation, packaging, and assembly tasks requiring consistent positioning accuracy.

Overview:

The igus drylin RG-0012 Cartesian gantry robot is a compact 3-axis industrial automation system built for precise pick-and-place and benchtop handling in laboratories, production lines, and small to medium enterprises.

Main Features:

  • Working area: 800 x 800 x 500 mm
  • Supports payloads up to 5 kg
  • Repeatability: ±0.5 mm
  • Maximum speed: 0.5 m/s
  • System weight: 14.6 kg

Design and Compatibility:

Manufactured by igus and part of the drylin product line, the RG-0012 integrates pre-configured drylin linear actuators with NEMA stepper motors for consistent motion and accuracy. It is compatible with igus Robot Control systems, available in cabinet or DIN rail formats, and can be used with third-party controllers for flexible installation.

Applications:

  • Ideal for industrial pick and place robot tasks
  • Suited for lab automation, packaging, and assembly
  • Used in measuring/testing equipment and microelectronics handling

Comparison and Scalability:

The igus drylin RG-0012 gantry robot is a compact alternative to larger drylin gantry models with working envelopes up to 3000 x 3000 mm, making it the right choice for benchtop setups and space-saving automation needs.

Frequently Asked Questions:

  • What is the fastest speed? The RG-0012 reaches up to 0.5 m/s.
  • What industries use this model? Commonly used in research labs, electronics assembly, small parts handling, and production automation.
  • What mounting interface does it use? The system includes igus drylin ZLW and GRR axes with NEMA stepper motors, designed for self-assembly and flexible mounting.

The RG-0012 handles payloads up to 5 kg with repeatability of plus or minus 0.5 mm, making it suitable for pick and place, lab automation, packaging, assembly, and small parts handling in benchtop and production environments.
The RG-0012 has a compact workspace of 800 x 800 x 500 mm and reaches a maximum speed of 0.5 m/s, fitting easily on benchtops and in tight spaces.
The RG-0012 uses self-assembly drylin ZLW and GRR axes with NEMA stepper motors and works with igus Robot Control systems in cabinet or DIN rail formats, or connects to third-party controllers.
The RG-0012 is commonly used in research labs, electronics assembly, small parts handling, production automation, and by small to medium enterprises seeking compact benchtop automation.
The RG-0012 is a 3-axis Cartesian gantry robot with movement in X, Y, and Z directions.
The system weighs 14.6 kg and features a self-assembly design with low-maintenance drylin linear actuators, making it practical for SMEs and labs with limited setup resources.

Gantry robots versus articulated arms for compact automation:

The RG-0012 is a fixed-footprint Cartesian gantry, ideal when you need precise linear motion in tight spaces. Choose it over articulated robotic arms when your task is repeatable pick-and-place or assembly within a defined benchtop envelope, rather than tasks requiring large reach or complex wrist angles.

  • For parts under 5 kg in confined spaces, the compact 800x800x500 mm footprint fits benchtop and shared production cells where floor or wall space is scarce.
  • When repeatability matters, the ±0.5 mm accuracy suits lab automation, electronics assembly, and precision packaging better than manual or semi-automated handling.
  • At 14.6 kg total weight and self-assembly design, deployment by SMEs and smaller labs avoids heavy installation overhead.
  • Low-maintenance drylin linear actuators reduce downtime compared to greased ball-screw alternatives in dusty or food-grade environments.
  • Cabinet or DIN rail control adapts to existing industrial setups; third-party controller support simplifies integration into legacy systems.
