SIASUN Collaborative Robot (GCR20-1400)

Put a person beside an industrial arm and the arm usually has to give something up: either its strength or its closeness. The SIASUN Collaborative Robot (GCR20-1400) is a high-end, general-purpose cobot of the GCR series, listed with a 20kg maximum payload and 16 TÜV-certified safety features for human-robot collaboration. For a plant in the Caribbean that wants automation without rebuilding the floor around it, that pairing is the reason to read on.

The product is available through this page, by quotation.

Background

The GCR series and the SIASUN brand

SIASUN builds the GCR family of collaborative robots, and the GCR20-1400 is described as its high-end, general-purpose model within that series. The family is wide: the same range also includes the SIASUN Collaborative Robot (GCR16-960), the SIASUN Collaborative Robot (GCR16-2000), the SIASUN Collaborative Robot (GCR25-1800) and the SIASUN Collaborative Robot (GCR30-1100). Buyers who want to compare the whole line can start from the Cobots category.

The model name carries two numbers, 20 and 1400. They match the published maximum payload of 20kg and the published reach of 1400mm, so the name tells you the working envelope at a glance. A second version, the GCR20-1400-EX, is also named in the sources; its figures are confirmed at quotation.

Key technology: vision, force and simple teaching

Three ideas define this robot. The first is perception: it integrates 2D/3D vision depth fusion with highly sensitive force detection and control, so the arm can see a part and feel contact with it. The second is safety built for people: 16 TÜV-certified safety features are provided for human-machine collaboration, with the emphasis on safety. The third is ease of use: the robot is programmed by drag-and-drop teach programming, which is meant to lower the threshold for use and make operation easier.

Around the arm sits a software layer. The robot offers a range of scenario-specific software packages and supports multiple external interfaces. It also provides cloud-based robot data monitoring and OTA remote updates, so the machine can be watched and kept current without a technician standing next to it.

What makes the GCR20-1400 suited to shared workspaces?

The answer starts with the safety package. Sixteen TÜV-certified safety features are the core of the robot's collaborative design, and they are what allow a worker and an arm to share space without the usual fence. Add the vision and force functions and the robot does more than stop: it senses what is around the tool and what the tool is touching.

The motion figures show that the arm is not slow for the sake of safety. The maximum TCP speed is 2.2m/s and the maximum straight-line speed is 1.5 m/s, with a repeatability of ±0.05 mm. A 20kg payload and a 1400mm reach give the arm room to carry a gripper and a part to a machine or a fixture some distance away.

Installation is also forgiving. The robot can be mounted in any direction, so a bench, a frame, a wall or an overhead position can all be considered during layout. The IP rating is listed as IP54/IP65, and the operating range runs from -10°C to 50°C, which is worth checking against your own site conditions, such as a warm, humid hall near the coast.

How does the GCR20-1400 connect to a production line?

A robot is only useful if it talks to the equipment around it. The listed communication interfaces are TCP/IP, Modbus/TCP, Profinet and Ethernet/IP, which are common in industrial automation, so many existing controllers and networks can be considered. At the tool end, two digital I/O channels at 24V and 0.6A serve a gripper or a simple sensor, and the tool flange is GB/T 14468.1-50-4-M6, which corresponds to ISO 9409-1.

On the electrical side, the robot takes a typical 600W in operation and can be fed from 220-240VAC 47-63Hz at 10A or from 100-200VAC 47-63Hz at 16A. That matters in the Caribbean, where supply standards differ from island to island, so confirm your voltage and frequency when you request the quotation.

Once the robot is running, the cloud-based data monitoring and OTA remote updates keep it visible and current. The scenario-specific software packages are there to shorten the step from a delivered arm to a working application.

Who is the SIASUN Collaborative Robot (GCR20-1400) for?

Manufacturers with mixed workspaces are the clearest fit: lines where people load, inspect or adjust while an arm repeats a task beside them. Companies that have tried a small bench cobot and found the payload too limited will find the 20kg class a more practical step. Integrators and system builders will value the open communication protocols and the any-direction mounting.

Smaller operations with limited technical staff will appreciate the drag-and-drop teaching, since the manufacturer designed it to lower the threshold for use. Facilities that run several sites will find the cloud monitoring and OTA updates useful for managing machines from one place.

If your task needs a different payload or reach class, look at the other members of the family. The SIASUN Collaborative Robot (GCR25-1800), the SIASUN Collaborative Robot (GCR30-1100), the SIASUN Collaborative Robot (GCR16-2000) and the SIASUN Collaborative Robot (GCR16-960) are each worth a look, and our team can help you compare them.

What is the SIASUN Collaborative Robot (GCR20-1400) used for?

1. Machine tending. The arm loads and unloads parts at a machine while an operator works close by.
2. Material handling. It moves parts, containers and tooling between stations over its working reach.
3. Assembly assistance. Force sensing and vision help with fitting, placing and aligning components.
4. Inspection. The arm presents a part or a sensor in a repeatable position for checking.
5. Process tasks. Applications such as dispensing or polishing can be built with the scenario-specific software packages.
6. Flexible cells. Any-direction mounting and drag-and-drop teaching let a cell be rearranged for a new job.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the maximum payload of the GCR20-1400?

The maximum payload is 20kg. Remember that the gripper counts toward it, so size the tooling with that in mind.

How far can the arm reach?

The reach is 1400mm. The robot has 6 degrees of freedom, so it can present a tool at several orientations within that reach.

How accurate is the robot?

The repeatability is ±0.05 mm. The maximum TCP speed is 2.2m/s and the maximum straight-line speed is 1.5 m/s.

Is it safe to work beside it?

The robot offers 16 TÜV-certified safety features for human-machine collaboration. Your own risk assessment of the finished application is still required.

How is the robot programmed?

It uses drag-and-drop teach programming, designed to lower the threshold for use. Scenario-specific software packages are also available.

Which communication protocols does it support?

The listed interfaces are TCP/IP, Modbus/TCP, Profinet and Ethernet/IP. Two digital I/O channels at the tool end run at 24V and 0.6A.

Where can I buy the SIASUN Collaborative Robot (GCR20-1400) and what does it cost?

You can request it through this page, by quotation. We do not list prices here; the cost is set in the quotation together with delivery, customs and support.

Summary

The GCR20-1400 is aimed at the gap between a small cobot and a guarded industrial arm. It combines a 20kg maximum payload and a 1400mm reach with 16 TÜV-certified safety features, vision and force sensing, simple teach programming and four common industrial communication protocols. Remote monitoring and OTA updates keep it manageable after installation. If a shared workspace and a real load describe your job, this page is the starting point.
