A robot can only work in the region in that it can move. This region is named as the work envelope. The work envelope is determined by how far-off the robot's arm can reach and how flexible the robot is. The additional reach and flexibility a robot has, the superior the work envelope will be.

Axes - The number of axes a robot has describe its flexibility height. The archetypal industrial robot has six axes of movement.

Length of arm segments - The robot's axes link arm divisions that each differ in length. The lengths of the arms joined with the abilities of each axis determine a robot's reach.

Placement - Robots have dissimilar mounting options. Their work envelopes differ in scope depending on whether they are ceiling shelf, wall, ceiling, or floor mounted. A number of robots can be mounted to tracks or gantry systems, that additional expand their work envelopes.

Construction - A robot's strength affects its work space. Robots have dissimilar payload capacities that in turn verify the type of EOAT that can be attached.
