Overview

The new generation of robolink®: the integrated control system means that the RL-DP is ready for immediate use. With cables on the inside and individual, igus® not only relies on design. The robot's four-axis or five-axis versions are even more precise, faster and more durable than their predecessors. Due to the injection molding housing, the RL-DP is currently the most cost-effective among the robolink® robots.

Key specs
