Performance is often a trade-off, optimizing for speed or accuracy. With ABB's IRB 1600, you don't have to choose. The robot’s cycle times are shorter, sometimes half that of other robots, allowing you to increase throughput while maintaining high workpiece quality and other advantages.
The IRB 1600 has up to 50 percent shorter cycle times than competing robots in material handling, machine tending, and process automation applications, thanks to ABB’s second-generation patented motion control technology, QuickMove.
At high speeds, most robots cut corners. The IRB 1600, with its unique combination of intelligence and power, ensures the work path stays consistent, no matter the speed.
The IRB 1600 offers exceptional reliability, even in the toughest environments and demanding 24/7 duty cycles, handling everything with ease.
The IRB 1600 offers versatile installation options, including shelf, wall, tilted, or inverted mounting, and can even be installed inside machinery.
Low friction gears and QuickMove and TrueMove minimize unnecessary movements, reducing power consumption to just 0.58kW at maximum speed and even lower at slower speeds. The noise level remains under 70dB (A), ensuring a healthy and safe working environment.
