The First Robot Eelding at 10 axis-large

The ABB IRB 800 is the first robot welding at 10 axis-large

To develop the new IRB welding robot 800, ABB - Robotics Division has combined the palletizing robot IRB 660 small robot handling and welding IRB 140. The configuration of the entire mechanical system offers 10 lines capable of meeting the needs of process Robotic Automation for welding pieces of very large dimensions. This innovation ABB will also open new opportunities in other applications as welding.

The little robot welding is fixed on the flange of the wrist of the robot palletizing, which allows it to be led with great precision in the welding area. The set consisted reached a range of 3.9 meters with a good position repeatability of 0.09 mm.

an alternative to gantry the new robot welding is a footprint on the ground lower than the gantry system. The accessibility to equipment is also much better because no base of support comes not obstruct access. The IRB 800 offers a flexible integration because it can be combined with one or more parts petitioners. Note that the entire range of welding equipment is compatible with the robot.

In addition, 4-axis Robotic Palletizing can move the little robot in all possible configurations for a welding quality on a complex piece.

Finally, unlike the majority of gates, it is not necessary to achieve a specific engineering making the IRB 800 most economical solution.Based on standard robots, the IRB 800 is both highly reliable and easy to use. Just one cabinet IRC5 command and a single desk for programming and programming piloting the 10 lines that run in Multimode.
