The verdict

On paper these two are close, both carry 10 kg and 1200 mm against 1379 mm of reach, near enough that the spec sheet alone will not decide it. They run different controllers, the Yaskawa Motoman HC10 on the YRC1000 and the Yaskawa Motoman HC10DTP on the YRC1000 / YRC1000micro, so whichever platform your team already programs and stocks parts for is a real tiebreaker. Both are aimed at machine tending, with the Yaskawa Motoman HC10 stretching to assembly and material handling and the Yaskawa Motoman HC10DTP to collaborative assembly and pick and place.

Yaskawa Motoman HC10
  • Switchable collaborative/industrial speed
  • 10 kg collaborative payload
Yaskawa Motoman HC10DTP
  • Dual tool flange cuts tool change time
  • Full industrial payload in a collaborative package
  • Washdown rated arm
  • Power and force limiting
