RS-DP-03R is a 6-axis robot automatic drop tester for smartphones and electronics, combining 12-sample handling, automatic face-edge-corner positioning, machine vision and unattended sequential testing.
The RS-DP-03R 6-Axis Robot Automatic Drop Tester is designed for automated directional drop testing of smartphones, tablets, portable electronics and electronic components.
It integrates a 6-axis robot, 12-sample handling system, machine vision and automatic orientation control into one test platform. Once the specimen dimensions and drop sequence are programmed, the system can automatically complete pickup, face/edge/corner positioning, free-fall release, post-impact recovery and preparation for the next drop.
Designed for repeated reliability testing, the RS-DP-03R reduces manual handling between drops and supports continuous automated test sequences.
| 6-Axis Robot | 12 Samples | 300–1800 mm | 2 kg Max. |
|---|---|---|---|
| Automatic Handling | Batch Testing | Drop Height | Specimen Weight |
Optional Drop Height: Up to 2000 mm.
The operator first defines the specimen dimensions, drop height, impact positions, drop sequence and number of drops in the test software.
The RS-DP-03R then coordinates sample loading, robotic handling, orientation adjustment, free-fall release and post-impact recovery automatically.
Automatic height compensation adjusts the drop position for different face, edge and corner orientations, reducing manual adjustment.
Automatic pickup, transfer, positioning and recovery reduce repeated manual handling throughout the drop sequence.
The 0 to ±180° rotation mechanism automatically positions specimens for programmed face, edge and corner drops.
Drop position is automatically adjusted according to specimen dimensions and impact orientation.
The XYZ loading system supports up to 12 specimens for sequential automatic testing.
A 12 MP industrial camera locates specimens after impact and assists robotic pickup and reorientation.
Set drop height, orientation, sequence and drop count for repeatable automated testing.

Final overall dimensions depend on the production configuration.
The RS-DP-03R is designed primarily for portable electronic products and components requiring repeated directional drop testing.
Smartphones · Tablets · E-readers · Notebook Computers · Handheld Game Devices · VR Devices
Chargers · Headphones · Portable Electronic Accessories
Touch Modules · Cover Glass · Camera Modules · Fingerprint Modules · Antenna Modules · PCBA · Batteries · Connectors
Typical use cases include R&D verification, pilot-production validation, production sampling and high-volume reliability testing.
Automatic drop testing depends on the specimen geometry, impact positions and test sequence—not only the required drop height.

ITM-LAB can evaluate the robotic handling, orientation and fixture configuration before quotation.
The RS-DP-03R is mainly used for smartphones, tablets, wearables, electronic components, and other small devices that require repeated drop testing.
It is particularly useful when the test involves several drop orientations and manual repositioning would take too much time or introduce unnecessary variation.
A conventional drop test often requires the operator to pick up the specimen and reset its orientation after every drop. With the RS-DP-03R, the robot handles these movements automatically.
This makes a noticeable difference in tests with many repetitions. The specimen can be picked up, repositioned, and prepared for the next drop according to the programmed sequence, with much less dependence on the operator.
Yes. Different orientations can be included in the same test program.
For example, a sequence can be set to run several face drops followed by selected edge and corner drops. The actual sequence depends on the product specification or the test method being followed.
The 6-axis robot is used to position the specimen before release, which gives much better control over the intended face, edge, or corner than repeated manual placement.
Actual positioning requirements should still be reviewed against the specimen geometry. Very small, irregular, flexible, or difficult-to-grip products may require a dedicated handling solution.
The handling method depends on the product.
Vacuum pickup works well for many products with suitable flat surfaces. For products that cannot be held reliably by vacuum, we can evaluate another gripping or fixture arrangement based on the sample dimensions, weight, surface, and required drop orientation.
Yes. The impact surface can be configured according to the test requirement.
Steel, wood, marble, or another specified impact material may be used depending on the applicable standard or the manufacturer's internal reliability procedure. We recommend confirming the impact material before the machine configuration is finalized.
Yes. This is one of the main reasons for using the robotic system.
Once the test sequence is programmed, the machine can repeat the pickup, positioning, release, and subsequent test cycle automatically. This is especially useful for R&D and reliability labs running a large number of drops on the same product.
Yes. Camera inspection or other monitoring functions can be integrated when required.
For projects that need automatic visual inspection, drop-event recording, or additional data collection, it is better to define these requirements at the beginning so that the mechanical layout and control system can be configured accordingly.
A product drawing is helpful, but it does not need to be complicated. In most cases, we need the sample dimensions and weight, drop height, required orientations, number of drops, impact surface, and applicable test standard.
If you already have an internal drop-test procedure, send it with the inquiry. We can check the test sequence and recommend the appropriate RS-DP-03R configuration.
