MOTOMAN YASKAWA GP12

Robot details

The YASKAWA MOTOMAN GP12 is a high-performance 6-axis industrial robot designed for material handling, assembly, machine tending, packaging, quality inspection, and pick-and-place applications. Featuring a payload capacity of 12 kg and an extended reach of 1,440 mm, the GP12 offers an ideal balance between speed, precision, and flexibility for modern automated production environments. 

Controlled by the powerful YRC1000 controller, the GP12 delivers smooth trajectory control, fast cycle times, advanced safety functions, and Industry 4.0 connectivity. The robot is engineered with YASKAWA Sigma-7 servo technology, providing exceptional motion performance and optimized acceleration/deceleration control. 

With a repeatability of ±0.02 mm, the GP12 is suitable for precision assembly operations, CNC machine loading, logistics automation, vision-guided picking systems, and industrial inspection tasks. Its hollow-arm design allows integrated routing of cables and pneumatic lines, reducing interference and simplifying system integration. 

The robot's compact footprint and slim-profile arm maximize workspace utilization while enabling installation in high-density robotic cells. Available with IP65/IP67 protection options, the GP12 can operate reliably in demanding industrial environments exposed to dust, moisture, and contaminants.
