FAQ – DOBOT CRA-IP68 series
What is the CRA-IP68 series for?
It is designed to automate industrial tasks in harsh environments (heavy dust, humidity, splashes, oil/cutting fluid), where a standard cobot may be more limited.
What is the difference vs the “standard” CRA series?
CRA-IP68 keeps the CRA approach (6-axis cobot, workshop integration) but adds reinforced IP68 protection on the arm and a design suited to aggressive environments (dust-proof, improved resistance to oils and splashes).
Is it suitable for CNC machine tending?
Yes—this is one of the typical use cases: loading/unloading machine tools in the presence of oil mist, chips and splashes, with higher sealing requirements.
Can it be used for grinding, cutting, or very dusty applications?
Yes. The series is oriented toward these environments (dust, particles, residues), provided the end-effector and cell protection are properly sized.
Does IP68 mean full immersion?
No. IP68 indicates very high protection against water/dust, but it should not be understood as prolonged immersion. In practice, specify whether the application involves splashes, washdown, or continuous humidity.
