Against the field

Each strip holds every robot of this type in the guide that states the figure, one bar per group of values. Further right means a larger figure, not a better robot. A taller bar means more robots in that group.

Fingertip force

10N

38 robot hands state a fingertip force

Dex5-1

19 state a higher figure, 4 a lower one. 1 more states exactly the same figure. 1 states a range that includes this figure. 12 state only a bound (≥ or ≤) and are not ranked. DG-5F-M lies beyond the end of the axis and is drawn at its edge as an open bar.

Lifting capacity

4.5kg9.92lbOur conversion from 4.5 kg. The manufacturer does not state an imperial figure itself, so the conversion has no source of its own.

48 robot hands state a lifting capacity

36 state a higher figure, 4 a lower one. 7 state only a bound (≥ or ≤) and are not ranked.

Weight

1,100g2.43lbOur conversion from 1,100 g. The manufacturer does not state an imperial figure itself, so the conversion has no source of its own.

59 robot hands state a weight
