Overview
The smallest arm in JAKA's Zu series (节卡): 3 kg payload, 626 mm reach, ±0.02 mm repeatability and a 12 kg weight including cables, IP54 with a 350 W nominal draw. JAKA describes an integrated joint design for quick assembly and disassembly and built-in torque feedback, aimed at small, high-precision work in 3C electronics and advanced manufacturing. It is programmed graphically, by drag and teach, offline or through SRCI from a PC, tablet or phone.
Will the JAKA Zu 3 do your task? Simulate it before you buy.
Four cobots on the same palletizing task, simulated before purchase.
We build your station in a simulator with the JAKA Zu 3 and one or two alternatives, and send you video plus cycle time, parts per shift, reach and payload check, and a payback estimate. Scoping is free, and every project is quoted individually.

|---|---|---|---|---|
| Contact | 2026-10-17 | Zu 3 (626 mm) | Robotics Center (US reseller), listing rejected as unreliable | Not used as a price: Robotics Center backorder listing shows '$19,499.00' (US shipping estimate $496.24 extra) but the same listing gives a net weight of 18 kg against JAKA's 12 kg, so it is judged unreliable and no figure is recorded. No JAKA distributor or 京东/天猫 price found; Top3dShop shows request-a-quote. |

Key facts
- Official JAKA page (fetched 2026-10-17): payload 3 kg (6.6 lb), weight incl. cables 12 kg, reach 626 mm, accuracy ±0.02 mm, nominal power 350 W, arm IP54, base diameter 158 mm.
- Control cabinet (JAKA page): IP44, 410 x 307 x 235 mm, 13.5 kg, 100-240 VAC 50-60 Hz; TCP/IP, Modbus TCP, Modbus RTU, Profinet, EtherNet/IP; 16 DI, 16 DO, 2 analog.
- JAKA's pages list neither max speed, operating temperature nor joint ranges, so these are null. Top3dShop's reseller table gives 1.5 m/s, 0-50 C and 6 DoF, but its 129 mm base disagrees with JAKA's 158 mm, so only 6 DoF is kept (it follows from the Zu series naming and the arm count).
- Price: the only US listing found (Robotics Center, USD 19,499, backorder) carries a wrong net weight and is not recorded as a price; Top3dShop gives no price.
- Sits in JAKA's Zu series (Zu 3, 5, 7, 12, 18, 20, 30, 35, 50). Same-generation sibling of jaka-zu-5, not predecessor or successor.
- Launch date, SDK and ROS support are not stated on JAKA's fetched page, so year_available is empty and sdk/ros_support are false by default.
- Image: crop of JAKA's official Zu 3 hero render (jaka.com/profile/upload/2025/02/07/20250207145415A007.jpg, 3840 px source), whole robot. Max speed and operating temperature are not on JAKA's page. No reliable price found, so none is shown.
