DOBOT CR20A Collaborative Robot

Big Reach. 20 kg Payload. Serious Automation Capability.

When your application requires both payload and reach, the DOBOT CR20A steps up.

With a 20 kg maximum payload and substantial 1,700 mm working radius, the CR20A opens the DOBOT range to larger industrial automation applications including palletising, heavy product handling, machine loading and end-of-line processes.

The extended reach allows the robot to cover larger work areas, reach across pallets and conveyors, or service equipment that would simply be beyond the working envelope of smaller cobots.

A Compelling Option for Palletising

Palletising is one of the clearest opportunities for robotic automation.

It is repetitive, physically demanding and often adds little value when performed manually.

With its 20 kg payload and 1,700 mm reach, the CR20A provides an excellent foundation for palletising and depalletising systems.

Combined with the appropriate vacuum or mechanical gripper, robot base, conveyor and safety system, the CR20A can become the centre of a powerful end-of-line automation solution.

High-Payload Automation with ROI in Mind

A high-payload robot doesn’t automatically need to mean a premium-priced automation project.

The CR20A gives manufacturers another option when comparing the cost of robotic palletising, machine tending or heavy material handling.

Its competitive positioning can help bring the capital cost and potential payback period of a project into a range that makes automation commercially achievable for more businesses.

For growing manufacturers, that matters.

The objective isn’t simply to own a robot — it’s to invest in equipment that can increase capacity, improve consistency, reduce repetitive manual handling and deliver a measurable return.

Key Features

• 20 kg Maximum Payload – Suitable for heavier cartons, products, components and substantial end-of-arm tooling.
• 1,700 mm Working Radius – The largest reach among these CRA models, providing excellent coverage for pallets, conveyors and larger production cells.
• ±0.05 mm Repeatability – Consistent positioning for repetitive industrial processes.
• Up to 5.5 m/s Maximum Linear Speed – The current global CRA specification lists maximum linear speed of 5.5 m/s.
• 6-Axis Flexibility – Greater freedom of movement than traditional fixed palletising mechanisms.
• Ideal for Palletising – The combination of payload and reach makes the CR20A particularly well suited to robotic palletising solutions.
• Flexible End-of-Arm Tooling – Can be integrated with vacuum grippers, mechanical grippers and application-specific tooling.
• Industrial Integration –Designed to work as part of complete production systems incorporating conveyors, PLCs, sensors, vision and other equipment.

Ideal Applications

• Palletising
• Depalletising
• Heavy material handling
• Machine tending
• Machine loading and unloading
• Carton handling
• End-of-line automation
• Packaging
• Component transfer
• Production line loading
• Pick and place
• General manufacturing automation

Why Choose the DOBOT CR20A?

The CR20A is for businesses that want to take DOBOT’s value proposition into larger industrial applications.  Its combination of 20 kg payload and 1.7 metre reach makes it particularly attractive for palletising and heavy material handling — applications where automating repetitive physical work can deliver significant operational benefits.

For manufacturers who may previously have assumed that a high-payload robotic system was outside their automation budget, the CR20A is well worth considering.

Build a Complete DOBOT Palletising Solution

Industrial Robotics can integrate the CR20A into a complete palletising or material-handling system incorporating:

• Vacuum or mechanical palletising gripper
• Robot pedestal or base
• Lifting column where required
• Conveyors
• Pallet detection
• Product sensors
• PLC controls
• Safety scanners
• Guarding where required
• Robot programming
• Pallet patterns
• Installation
• Commissioning
• Operator training

The result is not simply a robot — it’s a complete automation solution designed around your products and production requirements.
