# DENSO Robotics VP-5243

Hardware · `VP-5243` · verification: source checked

The DENSO VP-5243 is a 5-axis articulated robot with a 430 mm maximum reach and a 3 kg maximum payload. It is an ultracompact unit with a 160 x 160 mm footprint, absolute encoders and brakes on all joints. Its maximum composite speed at the end-effector mounting face is 3,900 mm/s with ±0.02 mm repeatability.
