The IRB 4400 is an extremely fast, compact robot for medium to heavy handling. It has exceptional all-round capabilities, making it suitable for a variety of manufacturing applications. The 60 kg load capacity at very high speeds usually permits handling of two parts at a time.
The IRB 4400 features a rigid, well-balanced design and the patented TrueMove™ function, providing smooth and fast movement throughout the entire working range. This ensures very high quality in applications such as cutting. Rapid maneuverability makes the IRB 4400 perfectly suited for applications where speed and flexibility are important. Its compact design and protected versions enable use in situations where conventional robots cannot work, such as in foundry and spraying applications. The Foundry Plus 2 version is IP 67 protected and can be washed with high-pressure steam, making it ideal for use in harsh environments.
The robust, rigid construction means long intervals between routine maintenance. Well-balanced steel arms with double bearing joints, a torque-strut on axis 2, and the use of maintenance-free gearboxes and cabling also contribute to the very high levels of reliability. The drive train is optimized to provide high torque with the lowest power consumption for economic operation.
The extensive communication capabilities include serial links, network interfaces, PLC, remote I/O, and field bus interfaces. This makes it easy to integrate into small manufacturing stations as well as large-scale factory automation systems.
For worry-free operation, ABB also offers RemoteService, which provides remote access to equipment for monitoring and support. Additionally, ABB customers can benefit from the company’s service organization, which has over 35 years of experience in the arc welding sector. ABB provides service support in over 100 locations across 53 countries.
