Manufacturer-stated, not a DEPLOY measurement

Every rated payload here is a figure the maker published, recorded against its source and reviewed for faithful transcription, not a spec DEPLOY measured itself. The ranking is computed live from those reviewed records, so a robot enters, moves, or drops the moment its spec changes. Where a maker states a range, the registry records a single representative value; follow the source link for the maker’s full wording.
