About Seiko Epson (Epson Robots)

Epson Robots is the factory automation business of Seiko Epson Corporation, and one of the defining names in SCARA robotics. The business grew out of automating Seiko watch assembly: a development project begun in 1981 produced the SSR-H series in May 1983, Epson’s first commercial SCARA robots, and the company says more than 250,000 Epson robots have now been deployed in factories worldwide (company-stated). Epson states it has held the world’s top share of the industrial SCARA market by revenue for more than a decade. The current catalogue centres on SCARA families (GX, G, LS, T and the ceiling-mounted RS series), compact six-axis robots (C series) and options such as integrated vision guidance, parts feeding and force sensing, all programmed through the Epson RC+ development environment.

Features such as GYROPLUS vibration-reduction technology and SafeSense safety monitoring reflect the range’s focus on fast, precise small-parts assembly for electronics, medical devices, automotive components, semiconductors and consumer goods. Robots are developed and built at the Factory Automation Division’s Toyoshina Plant in Nagano, Japan, and sold through Epson’s regional organisations, including Epson Robots in Carson, California. For partners, Epson is a benchmark supplier for high-speed precision assembly cells.

GlobleMatch Trust Signals

A directory that doesn’t sell stars. Trust Signals are built only from verifiable facts — never from anonymous ratings, and never for sale. There is no single hidden score.

Public information coverage	9 of 9 fields on the standard profile could be filled from public sources. This counts how much public information exists about the company — not how good the company is. The nine fields are listed in the methodology. Claiming the profile lets the company complete the remaining fields itself.
Last verified	6 November 2026 — facts on this profile were checked against the sources listed below. Profiles are re-checked on a published 90-day cycle; this date is never quietly refreshed.

Claim this profile to unlock response record, directory tenure and peer endorsements. The full methodology — what each signal measures and how it is calculated — is published in the Trust Signals methodology, including a change log.
