FAIRINO FR20 Overview

The FAIRINO FR20 has the longest reach in the FR series of 6-axis collaborative robots. It carries 20 kg across 1854 mm with ±0.02 mm repeatability and a typical TCP speed of 1 m/s, in an arm of about 75 kg. That envelope is built for end-of-line palletizing, case and bag stacking, and handling large or heavy parts. Programming runs through a browser-based web interface or teach pendant, with SDKs for Python, C#, C++ and ROS/ROS2 and communication over digital and analog I/O, TCP/IP, Modbus TCP/RTU, PROFINET, EtherNet/IP and CC-Link. Protection is rated IP66, and operating noise stays below 65 dB.

FAIRINO FR20 Review Summary

The FR20 has the longest reach of the standard FR series arms. It carries 20 kg across 1854 mm with ±0.02 mm repeatability, an envelope built for end-of-line palletizing, case and bag stacking and handling of large or heavy parts. It is listed at USD 15,499.

Pros

• 1854 mm reach with a 20 kg payload

• ±0.02 mm repeatability, tighter than the ±0.1 mm of the UR20

• IP66 protection as standard

• Turnkey palletizing cell with a published price

• Open platform: Python, C#, C++ SDKs and ROS / ROS2

Cons

• At about 75 kg the arm needs a substantial pedestal, column or gantry

• Typical TCP speed of 1 m/s limits cycle rate on fast lines

• End effectors and safety scanners are purchased separately unless bought as a cell

Who It Is For

The FR20 fits plants automating end-of-line palletizing, fabricators welding large frames and operations that move heavy parts over a wide area. For loads above 20 kg, the FR30 is the next step; for lighter parts with long reach, the FR10 costs less.
