Choosing among used industrial robot controllers and arms usually comes down to one practical question: are you adding a controller to an existing arm, or taking home both pieces? The four listings here represent three different hardware families, so compatibility should drive the decision before price. Here is how the Yamaha SRCX05, Fanuc S-10, and Staubli RX90 CS7 compare.
Quick Take
If you are looking for the lowest listed price in this set, the Yamaha SRCX05 listings are the place to start. If you want a controller and arm in one package, the Fanuc S-10 is the only one here that combines them. If you specifically need a Stäubli CS7 controller for an RX90 arm, the Staubli listing is the one to review, with condition caveats included.
Listed-Price Comparison
| Listing | Listed Price | Price Bar |
|---|---|---|
| Yamaha SRCX 05 controller (bracket missing) | USD 303.99 | [1---------] |
| Yamaha SRCX 05 controller | USD 332.49 | [1---------] |
| Fanuc Robotics S-10 arm and controller | USD 1,999.99 | |
| Staubli RX90 CS7 arm controller | USD 2,499.99 |
The listed-price gap here is roughly USD 2,196 between the least and most expensive listing. The two Yamaha controllers sit close together, while the Fanuc and Staubli units occupy the higher end.
Decision Matrix
| If your priority is... | Starting point |
|---|---|
| Lowest listed price for a Yamaha SRCX05 controller | Yamaha SRCX05 controller with bracket missing |
| A Yamaha SRCX05 controller without the bracket-missing note | Yamaha SRCX05 controller |
| A 6-axis robot arm plus controller in one listing | Fanuc Robotics S-10 arm and controller |
| A Stäubli CS7 controller for an RX90 arm | Staubli RX90 CS7 controller |
Keep in mind that the Staubli listing identifies a dent on the corner and a missing key.
Yamaha SRCX05 controller (bracket missing)
This is the entry-priced listing in the group at USD 303.99. The title says exactly what to expect from the physical unit: a Yamaha SRCX05 controller with a bracket missing. If you are already running an SRCX05 and just need a replacement controller, this is the lowest-cash way to approach it. The tradeoff is the missing bracket, so your side of the setup needs to account for that. This option makes most sense when the bracket is not part of your installation.
Yamaha SRCX05 controller
Listed at USD 332.49, this second Yamaha SRCX05 controller is the closest price companion to the bracket-missing unit. The primary difference is in the title: it does not mention a missing bracket, which may matter if that caveat on the lower-priced listing is a dealbreaker. It is still identified as used condition, and the model line is the same SRCX05 family as the other Yamaha. The listed price is USD 28.50 higher than the bracket-missing version, so it is not the lowest cash outlay here. Choose it when you want a Yamaha SRCX05 controller listing that doesn't put a missing bracket in the title.
Fanuc Robotics S-10 arm and controller
This Fanuc unit is the middle-priced option at USD 1,999.99 and the only one here that pairs a 6-axis robot arm with a controller. It is identified as a 1994 Fanuc Robotics industrial system, with material handling, welding, and palletizing as intended uses. If you need both the arm and the controller together, this is the direct match. The main limitation is age: the 1994 model era means you are considering a legacy industrial unit rather than a current-generation robot. That is the tradeoff for getting arm and controller in one lot.
Staubli RX90 CS7 controller
At USD 2,499.99, the Staubli RX90 CS7 sits at the top of the price range. It is a 1997 6-axis industrial robot arm controller and the only CS7 controller in this set. The title includes a *READ* caveat, and the listing identifies a dent on the corner and a missing key. If your line already uses a Staubli RX90 with CS7 control, this listing gives you a specific controller to review. The limiting facts are the visible cosmetic damage and the missing key rather than the price alone. Budget for those caveats in your handling.
Final Recommendation by Use Case
- Need the smallest cash outlay and can live with a missing bracket: start with the Yamaha SRCX05 controller that has the bracket-missing title.
- Prefer a Yamaha SRCX05 controller whose title does not call out a missing bracket: go with the other Yamaha SRCX05 controller.
- Need a 6-axis arm plus controller in one package: choose the Fanuc Robotics S-10 arm and controller.
- Need a Stäubli CS7 controller for an RX90 arm and can accept a dent plus missing key: consider the Staubli RX90 CS7 controller.
