The new ID model, especially designed for arc welding, features a flexible conduit in its upper arm/wrist for routing the cables and hoses, fully integrating the process equipment with the robot. The integrated design provides a number of benefits including 15% shorter cycle times, lower operational costs and easier programming, along with the standard IRB 2600 family performance benefits such as superior speed, flexible mounting options, an increased work envelope and unmatched path repeatability. ABB is one of the few robot suppliers that offer a mid-size robot in both standard and ID models. | ||||||||
 | ABB Extends its Compact Controller to Larger Robots, Bringing Small Footprint Functionality to a Wider Range of Applications 31 Jan 2011 ABB Robotics has extended the functionality of its IRC5 Compact controller to six additional ABB robot families. ABB’s smallest controller was introduced in 2009 along with the introduction of the IRB 120, ABB’s smallest 6-axis robot. The compact controller will now support the IRB 120, IRB 140, IRB 260, IRB 360 FlexPicker™, IRB 1410 and IRB 1600 robot families, offering the benefits of a greatly reduced controller footprint and simplified commissioning to a wider range of applications. | ||||||||
 | ABB Expands Midrange Robot Portfolio - The New IRB 2600, Ultimate Performance in the 12 to 20 kg Payload Class 6 Dec 2010 ABB Robotics, a leading supplier of industrial robots, is introducing the new IRB 2600, the latest model in its medium capacity range of multipurpose robots. The new IRB 2600 features an optimized compact design, an ultra-wide working range and a payload capacity up to 20 kg. It also offers the best accuracy and speed in its class, improving productivity through increased output, faster cycle times and lower scrap rates. The IRB 2600 is particularly suitable for arc welding, machine tending, material handling and a variety of process applications. | ||||||||
 | ABB Robotics Introduces a New Generation of Workpiece Positioners for Arc Welding, Thermal Cutting and Metal Finishing Applications 29 Sep 2010 ABB has released a new generation of workpiece positioners for robotic applications with improved load capacities and best-in-class motion control. The full range consists of nine models with load capacities ranging from 250 kg up to 5,000 kg. For the two most popular positioners, the IRBP K and the IRBP R the load capacities have been increased to 1,000 kg. These reliable, robust positioners are designed for manipulating workpieces during applications such as arc welding, thermal cutting, deburring and other metal finishing applications. | ||||||||
 | ABB Combines AC500 PLC and IRC5 Controller for Easier Robot Cell Integration and Enhanced Automation Possibilities 26 Aug 2010 ABB has introduced an integrated PLC and robot controller for robot cell applications, offering powerful performance in a single unit.
