SZGH-T1500-C-6: 6-Axis Industrial Robot | 10 kg Payload · 1,500 mm Reach · Welding & Handling

What Is the SZGH-T1500-C-6?

The SZGH-T1500-C-6 is a 6-axis articulated industrial robot arm combining a 10 kg payload with a 1,500 mm working radius — the longest reach in the SZGH T-series mid-payload range — enabling a single unit to handle welding, material transfer, and multi-machine tending across a wide work envelope with ±0.05 mm repeatability.

Core Advantages

1. Longest Reach in the T-Series Mid-Payload Bracket — by 500 mm

At 1,500 mm, the T1500-C-6 covers a 50% larger horizontal footprint than the T1000-C-6 (1,000 mm reach) at the same 10 kg payload. A single robot can serve a welding fixture and a downstream conveyor positioned more than a meter apart — a task that would otherwise demand two units or a repositioning slide.

2. Three Process Modes, One Robot

The T1500-C-6 is factory-configured to handle arc welding, part transfer, and CNC machine loading/unloading without tooling redesign. The 222°/sec wrist speed and full ±360° Axis 6 rotation allow rapid reorientation between a welding torch and a gripper in the same cycle, cutting idle time between operations.

3. Lower Cost-Per-Station in Multi-Machine Layouts

Mounted on the SZGH-T1500-B-7 linear track, one T1500-C-6 can tend three CNC machines in sequence. Compared to deploying three compact robots, this configuration typically reduces capital cost by 35–45% and simplifies programming to a single controller.

4. ±0.05 mm Repeatability Across the Full 1,500 mm Arc

Precision is maintained at the outermost reach — not just at the base — thanks to the cast-iron arm structure and SZGH's dual-encoder servo drive system. This matters for weld seam consistency on long structural parts where arm deflection at extension is a common failure point in lighter designs.

5. Flexible Mounting for Constrained Factory Layouts

Floor, bracket, and ceiling-mount options let integrators orient the robot over the work cell rather than beside it, recovering floor space in facilities where aisle width is a constraint. Ceiling-inverted mounting is fully supported at rated payload.

Application Scenarios

T-Series Comparison Table

When to choose T1500-C-6 over T1000-C-6: Your work cell exceeds 1,000 mm in any dimension, or you need the robot to serve both a welding fixture and a conveyor/transfer point without repositioning the base.

When to choose T1500-C-6 over H1500-B-6: You need welding and handling in the same program cycle. The H-series is optimized for continuous high-duty-cycle welding only; the C-series handles mixed processes.

Customer Case Study

By Fannie Chen, CEO, Shenzhen Guanhong Automation Co., Ltd. (SZGH) | May 2026

In early 2024 we received an inquiry from a metal door and window manufacturer in Monterrey, Mexico. Their challenge was specific: one production line, two operators, two completely different jobs — one person welding aluminum frame joints, another manually carrying finished frames to a stacking conveyor eight feet away. The owner wanted to eliminate both labor costs with a single robot, but his facility had no room to add a second unit or a transfer slide.

What made this viable was the T1500-C-6's 1,500 mm reach. In their layout, the welding fixture and the conveyor deposit point sat 1,350 mm apart — within the robot's full working radius with margin to spare. We programmed a single continuous cycle: the robot picks up a raw frame section, executes the full weld sequence on four joints, then — without releasing the part — rotates 90° and places it directly onto the conveyor. No intermediate table, no handoff station, no second robot.

The result after six weeks of commissioning: cycle time per door frame dropped from 4 minutes 10 seconds (manual) to 2 minutes 28 seconds. That is a 40% improvement in production throughput on the same floor footprint, with one robot replacing two manual stations. The owner told me it was the first time a single machine had genuinely simplified his line rather than just shifting the bottleneck somewhere else.

The T1500-C-6 is not the largest robot we make, and it is not the fastest. But for medium-size parts in workshops where space is the real constraint, that 1,500 mm reach is often exactly the gap between "needs two robots" and "one robot does the job."

Control System & Integration

The T1500-C-6 is paired with the SZGH proprietary CNC robot controller, a platform developed in-house since 2013 and now running on over 10,000 installed systems worldwide.

Frequently Asked Questions

1. What is the maximum payload of the SZGH-T1500-C-6?

The T1500-C-6 is rated for a 10 kg payload at the wrist flange, including the weight of any end-effector (gripper, torch, or tool). If your combined tooling and part weight approaches or exceeds 10 kg, consider the SZGH-T1850-D-6 with a 20 kg rating.

2. Can the T1500-C-6 be used for arc welding and material handling in the same program?

Yes. The T1500-C-6 (C-series) is specifically designed for mixed-process operation — welding and handling within a single cycle or via quick program switching. The robot's wrist accommodates standard torch mounts and ISO gripper flanges. For continuous, high-duty-cycle welding only, the H1500-B-6 offers additional thermal management.

3. How does the 1,500 mm reach compare to other SZGH T-series models?

The T1500-C-6 has the longest reach among T-series models at the 10 kg payload tier. The T1000-C-6 reaches 1,000 mm; the T1850-D-6 reaches 1,850 mm but at 20 kg payload. If your cell width or part span exceeds 1,000 mm but your parts weigh 10 kg or less, the T1500-C-6 is the correct choice.

4. What control system is included, and does it support standard G-code?

The robot ships with the SZGH proprietary CNC controller, which supports both teach-pendant programming and a G-code-derived command language. It also supports offline programming via SZGH PC software. The controller communicates over EtherCAT and Modbus TCP/RTU for PLC integration.

5. Can the T1500-C-6 be mounted on the ceiling or a wall bracket?

Yes. The T1500-C-6 supports floor, bracket, and ceiling mounting at full rated payload. Ceiling-inverted installation is a common configuration in cells where floor space is reserved for part flow. SZGH provides mounting interface drawings and load specifications for all three orientations.

6. How many CNC machines can one T1500-C-6 tend on a linear rail?

When paired with the SZGH-T1500-B-7 linear rail (7th axis), one T1500-C-6 can typically tend 3 CNC lathes or machining centers arranged in a row, depending on machine spacing and cycle time. SZGH provides layout simulation at the pre-sales stage to confirm coverage and cycle balance.

7. What is the repeatability of the T1500-C-6, and how is it maintained over time?

Rated repeatability is ±0.05 mm. This is achieved through a cast-iron arm structure, SZGH dual-encoder servo drives, and temperature-compensated controller algorithms. Preventive maintenance (annual greasing and servo calibration) is required to sustain this specification; SZGH provides a detailed maintenance schedule with each unit.

8. What are the lead time and shipping arrangements for international buyers?

Standard lead time is 4–6 weeks from order confirmation for T-series standard configurations. SZGH exports to 60+ countries; standard shipping is sea freight in a wooden export crate, with air freight available for urgent requirements. Local service agents in the USA, Turkey, Romania, Russia, Egypt, Thailand, and Mexico can assist with import, installation, and commissioning.
