Hanwha Robotics HCR-3A Overview
The HCR-3A is the smallest arm in the Hanwha Robotics HCR Advanced collaborative range, built for confined workspaces. It carries 3 kg over a 630 mm reach with ±0.05 mm repeatability, and its sixth joint rotates without limit. Weighing 13 kg on a Ø128 mm base, the arm can be mounted on the floor, wall or ceiling and is rated IP66. A separate controller with a 12.1-inch teach pendant provides TCP/IP and Modbus TCP communication.
