Editor's notes

Unverified (free text): arm IP (reseller page shows both IP54 and IP68). The requested 'CR5 or CRA5': the current line is the CRA series, model name CR5A. Reseller page is inconsistent on IP (IP54 arm vs 'IP68' version field); IP54 recorded. No official Dobot CR5A product page fetched. No safety standard named.
