Head to head
ABB IRB 910SC vs Epson SCARA T6
A specification duel across payload, reach, precision, and footprint, with a plain read on which arm suits which job.
Compact SCARA for assembly and small-parts handling
Value SCARA for assembly and packaging cells
Specification duel
Green marks the stronger figure. Unconfirmed specs are shown but not scored.
The verdict
On paper these two are close, both carry 6 kg and 650 mm against 600 mm of reach, near enough that the spec sheet alone will not decide it. They run different controllers, the ABB IRB 910SC on the IRC5 and the Epson SCARA T6 on the Built-in, so whichever platform your team already programs and stocks parts for is a real tiebreaker. For a tight or overhead cell, the ABB IRB 910SC lists Floor mounting while the Epson SCARA T6 lists Tabletop mounting, which the other does not.

- Multiple reach and payload variants
- Compact footprint for bench integration
- Simple programming for pick-and-place tasks
- Competitive cost for a full-size SCARA
