Fairino FR5 | 6DOF | 922m | 5kg

The FAIRINO FR5 is a versatile 6-axis collaborative robot designed for precise automation tasks in compact production cells. With a rated payload of 5 kg, a reach of 922 mm, a repeatability of ±0.02 mm, and a TCP speed of up to 1 m/s, it supports fast and reproducible processes. The arm, weighing approximately 22 kg, can be mounted in any orientation. Available options include the cost-effective IP54 standard version, the visually distinctive IP54 Black Edition with identical performance specifications, and the IP65 version for environments with increased exposure to dust or water. This allows users to select the FR5 version that best suits their operating environment without compromising on reach, payload, or precision. As a result, integration into existing production systems is simplified.

The FAIRINO FR5 is suitable for pick-and-place operations, machine tending, assembly, screwdriving, quality inspection, as well as adhesive dispensing and dosing applications. Its 922 mm reach enables it to service larger work areas or multiple positions within a cell, while its ±0.02 mm repeatability supports consistently high process quality. The IP54 Standard and Black Edition models are designed for controlled industrial environments, whereas the IP65 version extends usability to dusty or humid environments. For applications requiring a combined payload of more than 5 kg, including tooling and workpiece, a larger working envelope, or high process forces, a more powerful robot model should be selected. The distance of the center of gravity from the flange is also a critical factor in the selection process.

The FAIRINO FR5 can be configured via a browser-based web interface or a 10.1-inch teach pendant. Motions can be taught directly on the robot and combined into automated workflows using the graphical user interface. For customized applications, SDKs are available for C#, C++, Python, ROS, and ROS 2. TCP/IP, Modbus TCP, and Modbus RTU, as well as digital and analog inputs and outputs, support the integration of external devices. PROFINET, EtherNet/IP, EtherCAT, and CC-Link are available as optional communication interfaces. For the IP65 version, the end effector, connectors, and cabling must also be adequately protected to ensure that the intended level of protection is maintained throughout the complete application. This keeps the platform flexible for future expansions.

The FAIRINO FR5 is a suitable choice for companies looking to automate the handling of light to medium-weight components with precision, efficiency, and a compact footprint. The IP54 Standard version provides a well-balanced solution for typical production environments, while the Black Edition combines the same technology with a black exterior design. The IP65 version is recommended for applications with increased exposure to dust or water. Key factors for system design include the total payload, center of gravity, working envelope, cycle time, and environmental conditions. IP65 does not imply resistance to every cleaning agent or process medium. In addition, collaborative operation must be assessed for the complete application and requires a risk assessment covering the robot, end effector, workpiece, and process.

Through the RBTX Marketplace, the FAIRINO FR5 can be combined with grippers, vacuum systems, cameras, force sensors, safety technology, feeding systems, and other accessories. This enables the creation of a coordinated solution for handling, assembly, inspection, screwdriving, dispensing, or machine tending applications. Alternatively, the FR5 can be configured as part of a complete robotic cell including a base frame, control system, and safety concept. Depending on the operating environment, the IP54 Standard, IP54 Black Edition, or IP65 version can be selected. For the IP65 version, the end effector, connectors, and cables should also be suitable for the environmental conditions. RBTX supports the selection of compatible components and the application-specific system configuration.
