Larger clean-room capable arm for handling tasks
Specification duel
Green marks the stronger figure. Unconfirmed specs are shown but not scored.
The verdict
On paper these two are close, both carry 12 kg and 1441 mm against 1200 mm of reach, near enough that the spec sheet alone will not decide it. They run different controllers, the FANUC M-10iD/12 on the R-30iB Plus and the Staubli TX2-90L on the CS9, so whichever platform your team already programs and stocks parts for is a real tiebreaker. For a tight or overhead cell, the FANUC M-10iD/12 lists Inverted mounting while the Staubli TX2-90L lists Wall and Ceiling mounting, which the other does not. Both are aimed at material handling and machine tending, with the Staubli TX2-90L to dispensing.
- Internal cable routing reduces snagging
- Strong reach-to-footprint ratio
- Larger payload than the TX2-60 with the same clean design
- Cleanroom-rated options for pharma and electronics
- Consistent accuracy across long duty cycles
- Sealed structure resists contamination
