This article systematically classifies and compares robot types for painting.
- Six-axis Articulated: Most mainstream, high flexibility, large workspace, for complex 3D surfaces. Models: ABB IRB 580, FANUC P-250iB
- SCARA: For high-speed flat/simple curved-surface painting. Simple, lower cost
- Cartesian/Gantry: High rigidity, for extra-large/heavy workpieces. Less flexible
- Delta (Parallel): Very fast, for small parts, flat surfaces. Limited workspace
- Specialized: Wall/ceiling-mounted, designed for paint shops
A detailed selection comparison table is provided, covering structure, applications, pros/cons, and cost ranges.
