The verdict
On paper these two are close, both carry 7 kg and 717 mm against 713 mm of reach, near enough that the spec sheet alone will not decide it. They run different controllers, the FANUC LR Mate 200iD on the R-30iB Plus and the Mitsubishi RV-7FR on the CR800-D, so whichever platform your team already programs and stocks parts for is a real tiebreaker. For a tight or overhead cell, the FANUC LR Mate 200iD lists Angle and Inverted mounting while the Mitsubishi RV-7FR lists Ceiling and Wall mounting, which the other does not. Both are aimed at machine tending and assembly, with the Mitsubishi RV-7FR to dispensing.
