Payload
The robot arm can accommodate higher payloads and longer CoG offsets, if the payload is

Expanded payload is possible for any robot mounting orientation.
Increasing the maximum payload capacity can cause the robot to move at reduced speeds
and lower acceleration. The higher load on the joints can limit some motions inside the
working range of the robot. The robot software automatically ensures the mechanical limits
of the robot are not exceeded.

Movement with high payload is with tool oriented vertically downward, as is often the
case in palletizing applications.
The payload CoG is within the nominal horizontal reach of the robot.
The CoG offset in the horizontal XY-plane does not exceed the expanded payload
curve (long offsets in the Z-axis, exceeding the payload curve are not an issue).
Example of how to compute the horizontal center of gravity offset.

Using the expanded payload range does not void your robot warranty for
this robot.
