The FANUC CR-35iA is a six-axis heavy-payload collaborative robot designed for lift assistance, assembly, machine tending, palletizing, handling, packing, and ergonomic production support.
It combines a 35 kg payload, 1,813 mm reach, ±0.03 mm repeatability, floor mounting, contact-stop safety, a soft green protective cover, integrated FANUC intelligence, and IP67 protection at the wrist and J3 arm.
The approximately 990 kg robot uses FANUC industrial controller technology and can operate in risk-assessed shared workspaces without conventional fencing.
With the CR-35iB succeeding it in FANUC’s heavy collaborative range, CR-35iA is now most relevant to existing installations and cells already designed around its 35 kg payload and contact-stop architecture.
Handles substantial tools and parts in risk-assessed shared-workspace applications.
Large work envelope supports lift assist, machine access, assembly, and handling.
Industrial FANUC mechanics support consistent positioning and production quality.
Sensitive force-limiting system stops the robot when unexpected contact is detected.
Green foam covering reduces impact severity and identifies the collaborative platform.
Current availability should be compared with the lighter, stronger CR-35iB successor.

The FANUC CR-35iA price is normally available by project quote, used-system offer, or remaining regional availability rather than one fixed global list price. The complete cost depends on controller, hand-guidance equipment, tool, pedestal, safety validation, vision, integration, freight, training and support. The robot arm is only one part of the investment. A usable industrial robot cell may also require the controller, FlexPendant or operator interface, pedestal, end effector, dress pack, vision, fixtures, safety equipment, PLC and fieldbus integration, guarding, programming, installation, training and production acceptance. Freight, taxes, customs, spare parts and local support can also change the delivered cost.
Before comparing offers, confirm the exact variant, controller generation, condition, included equipment, software licences and service responsibilities. The better buying question is: what is included, what performance is guaranteed, and who supports the complete cell?
You can request FANUC CR-35iA pricing or a complete automation quote through Anton Robots before committing.
You can request new-old-stock, used, refurbished or installed-base sourcing for the FANUC CR-35iA through Anton Robots. Anton Robots helps industrial buyers verify the genuine commercial route, compare new, used, refurbished or integrator-built packages and determine whether the FANUC CR-35iA matches the payload, reach and process. FANUC still publishes CR-35iA technical material, while the current CR-35iB offers a lighter design and up to 50 kg payload; regional CR-35iA availability must be confirmed.
Before buying, confirm the exact robot variant, serial number where applicable, controller, RobotWare version, mounting orientation, environmental protection, end effector, process equipment, safety architecture, shipping, warranty and commissioning. A bare manipulator listing is not the same as a production-ready cell. Professional buyers should compare the total installed system, production target and support route rather than only the lowest displayed robot price.
To start, request FANUC CR-35iA buying or sourcing guidance through Anton Robots.
You may find a FANUC CR-35iA for sale through FANUC partners, integrators, used-robot specialists and existing manufacturers. Finding a FANUC CR-35iA for sale is only the first step. Buyers should verify whether the offer is a new supported robot, an integrator package, remaining stock, a used manipulator, a refurbished system or an incomplete arm without the correct controller and software. Confirm the matched controller, serial number, safety package, foam-cover condition, operating hours, calibration, batteries, cables, software and service eligibility.
A useful comparison should cover the exact payload and reach variant, controller generation, operating hours, maintenance, calibration, batteries, cables, tooling, safety hardware, delivery, commissioning and warranty. Avoid treating a marketplace listing as proof that ABB will support the exact serial number or configuration.
If you are evaluating a FANUC CR-35iA, contact Anton Robots. We can also compare it with other robotic arms for the same application.
Yes. You can request a FANUC CR-35iA sourcing or replacement quote through Anton Robots. A useful quote should identify the exact robot variant, controller, operator interface, RobotWare options, cabling, mounting, protection class, freight, warranty and available support. The proposal should compare a supported CR-35iA system with CR-35iB or CRX alternatives using payload, reach, footprint, safety, tooling and migration requirements.
The supplier also needs the part weight and dimensions, tool mass and centre of gravity, required reach, cycle time, accuracy, process equipment, floor layout, utilities, communications and safety constraints. This allows the proposal to be based on the real application rather than a generic arm price. Ask for a clear statement of integration scope, production acceptance test, exclusions, delivery milestones and responsibility after commissioning.
Anton Robots can help compare the FANUC CR-35iA against other industrial robot arms and prepare a package around the actual task.
A typical FANUC CR-35iA package may include the green collaborative manipulator, FANUC controller, teach pendant, robot cables, safety functions, hand-guidance equipment and selected tooling. The exact contents vary by country, controller generation, integrator and application, so buyers should request a written bill of supply:
A bare robot without the matched controller, safety configuration, tool and validation is not a collaborative production system. End effectors and integration are especially important. The same robot can be configured for welding, machine tending, palletizing, handling, dispensing or assembly, but each task needs different tooling, fixtures, process equipment and safety validation. A low robot-only price may exclude most of what makes the system productive.

The CR-35iA has a 35 kg payload, 1,813 mm reach and ±0.03 mm repeatability. It is a floor-mounted six-axis robot weighing approximately 990 kg, with a published maximum Cartesian speed of about 750 mm/s. The practical result depends on the exact variant, controller, payload centre of gravity, tool, mounting position, process and cell design rather than the headline specification alone. The 35 kg includes the end effector, brackets, cables and workpiece, while collaborative speed can be lower after risk assessment.
Before buying or integrating the robot, verify complete payload, centre of gravity, wrist moments, reach, speed limits, floor foundation and required stopping performance. A proper evaluation should use RobotStudio simulation, load diagrams, the real parts and tools, representative cycle testing and a documented safety assessment. Size the application around the validated collaborative load and speed.

The CR-35iA should be treated as an older-generation heavy collaborative robot with region-specific availability. FANUC continues to publish technical documentation, while the newer CR-35iB is the current heavy collaborative model with up to 50 kg payload. The practical result depends on the exact variant, controller, payload centre of gravity, tool, mounting position, process and cell design rather than the headline specification alone. A datasheet or product-overview entry does not guarantee ordinary new-unit stock in every region.
Before buying or integrating the robot, verify written FANUC confirmation, serial-number lifecycle, controller, parts, production status, delivery and recommended successor. A proper evaluation should use RobotStudio simulation, load diagrams, the real parts and tools, representative cycle testing and a documented safety assessment. Do not list it as normally stocked without supplier confirmation.

The CR-35iA was designed for risk-assessed collaborative operation without conventional fencing. Its contact-stop system and soft cover support shared tasks such as lift assistance and assembly. The practical result depends on the exact variant, controller, payload centre of gravity, tool, mounting position, process and cell design rather than the headline specification alone. Sharp tools, pinch points, heavy parts, surrounding machinery and application speed can still require scanners, guarding or separation.
Before buying or integrating the robot, verify ISO risk assessment, contact forces, payload, tool hazards, stopping distance, safe zones, emergency stops and operator procedures. A proper evaluation should use RobotStudio simulation, load diagrams, the real parts and tools, representative cycle testing and a documented safety assessment. Collaborative safety is a property of the completed application, not the green robot alone.

CR-35iA is best suited to heavy lift assistance, assembly, part transfer, machine tending, packing and palletizing. Its payload and reach address jobs that would otherwise need ergonomic lift devices or repetitive manual handling. The practical result depends on the exact variant, controller, payload centre of gravity, tool, mounting position, process and cell design rather than the headline specification alone. It is too large for many compact cells and does not match conventional high-speed robots where close human cooperation is unnecessary.
Before buying or integrating the robot, verify load, reach, operator interaction, cycle time, tool, ergonomics, floor space, safety and production acceptance. A proper evaluation should use RobotStudio simulation, load diagrams, the real parts and tools, representative cycle testing and a documented safety assessment. Use it where human and robot genuinely share the task.

The newer CR-35iB carries up to 50 kg and weighs about 375 kg, while CR-35iA carries 35 kg and weighs about 990 kg. CR-35iA provides longer 1,813 mm reach, while CR-35iB uses a more compact 1,643 mm envelope and updated safety technology. The practical result depends on the exact variant, controller, payload centre of gravity, tool, mounting position, process and cell design rather than the headline specification alone. The better choice depends on reach, floor space, existing programs, controller, tool and migration cost rather than payload alone.
Before buying or integrating the robot, verify required reach, load, footprint, foundation, speed, safety, controller, tooling, support and lifecycle. A proper evaluation should use RobotStudio simulation, load diagrams, the real parts and tools, representative cycle testing and a documented safety assessment. Choose CR-35iA mainly for compatibility or its longer reach.

Inspect the manipulator, collaborative safety system, foam cover, controller, reducers, motors, brakes, cables and calibration. The review should include alarm history, operating hours, safety signatures, pendant, software, batteries and a loaded motion test. The practical result depends on the exact variant, controller, payload centre of gravity, tool, mounting position, process and cell design rather than the headline specification alone. A robot that jogs without alarms can still have expensive wear or invalid collaborative settings.
Before buying or integrating the robot, verify serial number, service history, backlash, grease, brakes, covers, force sensing, backups, mastering and parts support. A proper evaluation should use RobotStudio simulation, load diagrams, the real parts and tools, representative cycle testing and a documented safety assessment. Buy with recommissioning and a new application risk assessment.

Yes, the CR-35iA can support collaborative palletizing of suitable cases, totes and products. Its 35 kg payload and 1.813 m reach can combine a gripper and product in ergonomic end-of-line cells. The practical result depends on the exact variant, controller, payload centre of gravity, tool, mounting position, process and cell design rather than the headline specification alone. Pallet height, gripper mass, box reach, speed and human access may make a CRX-30iA, CR-35iB or conventional palletizer more productive.
Before buying or integrating the robot, verify gripper and case mass, pallet pattern, stack height, cycle, reach, guarding, scanner zones and throughput target. A proper evaluation should use RobotStudio simulation, load diagrams, the real parts and tools, representative cycle testing and a documented safety assessment. Simulate the complete pallet pattern before selection.

A verified FANUC CR-35iA can be shipped internationally through specialist industrial channels. Industrial robot delivery depends on the destination country, robot condition, controller, freight method, export rules, customs and local service coverage. Its approximately 990 kg mass requires industrial rigging, transport restraints, protected foam surfaces, controller packing and local recommissioning.
Before ordering, confirm who disconnects, preserves, packs, lifts, insures, imports, installs, anchors, reconnects, calibrates and recommissions the system. Used robots should be shipped with transport restraints, controller cabinets, FlexPendant, cables, backups and maintenance records. A robot that can physically be transported is not necessarily supported or ready for production in another country.
You can request international availability for the FANUC CR-35iA through Anton Robots so the complete delivery and commissioning route can be checked. Buyers should obtain written confirmation of these points before approving a budget, purchase order, integration project, or production deployment.
FANUC CR-35iA availability and lead time can change according to model status, variant, controller, options, integrator capacity and destination. Supply may come from regional inventory, integrator stock, existing fleets or refurbished systems rather than predictable standard production.
Before committing to a production date, ask whether the robot is factory ordered, remaining stock, used, refurbished or already allocated, and whether the controller, tooling, safety system and integration resources share the same schedule. Cell design, RobotStudio simulation, manufacturing of fixtures, software, factory acceptance testing, freight, installation and site acceptance often take longer than obtaining the arm itself. You can request current FANUC CR-35iA availability and project lead time through Anton Robots.
Buyers should obtain written confirmation of these points before approving a budget, purchase order, integration project, or production deployment. Buyers should obtain written confirmation of these points before approving a budget, purchase order, integration project, or production deployment.
Before buying the FANUC CR-35iA, check the warranty or refurbishment guarantee, covered components, service territory, repair process, software entitlement, spare-parts availability and who supports the integrated cell. Confirm serial-number support, safety-system condition, reducer and motor inspection, controller support, foam-cover replacement and integrator responsibility. Ask:
For a legacy robot, serial-number support and spare-parts horizon are primary buying criteria. Contact Anton Robots to review the complete package. Buyers should obtain written confirmation of these points before approving a budget, purchase order, integration project, or production deployment.
The FANUC CR-35iA is worth considering if you need compatibility with an existing heavy collaborative process or a verified 35 kg lift-assist system at an attractive installed cost. Its strongest value comes from its 35 kg collaborative payload, 1.813 m reach, FANUC reliability, contact stopping and established ergonomic applications.
However, a robot arm only creates value when the task, tool, fixture, controller, safety design, cycle time and support are correctly engineered. Its 990 kg mass and older architecture make it much harder to redeploy than modern cobots, and CR-35iB may offer a stronger current alternative.
Buyers should compare total installed cost, expected throughput, quality, uptime, maintenance, energy, changeover and remaining product life rather than only payload and purchase price. For a legacy unit, a low acquisition cost can be outweighed by integration, batteries, calibration, parts and downtime risk.
