xArm6 Max Payload at different positions

Hello!

I am looking for some insight on the xArm6’s maximum payload. I have an object I need to be able to move on the xArm6 but the item’s weight is higher than expected at around 9kg. Being that the rated max payload is 5kg, I was wondering if the xArm6 could support more weight at certain positions?

Perhaps positioning the toolhead closer to the base position and only utilizing joint 1 while locking all other joints? Or would this put too much stress on the motor(s)?

Thanks in advance!

Hi Grego,

Sorry, xArm6 can’t hold 9kg, the max payload is 5kg in the half range and 3kg in the full range.

Best regards,
Minna
