Understanding the Range of ABB Robot Types for Automation Excellence

ABB, a global leader in robotics, offers a wide variety of ABB robot types to cater to diverse industry needs. Each robot type is meticulously engineered to provide unmatched performance and reliability, empowering businesses to enhance productivity, reduce costs, and achieve operational excellence.

Collaborative Robots (Cobots)

Cobots are designed for safe and seamless human-robot collaboration, enabling them to work alongside operators without safety cages. These robots typically feature a payload capacity of up to 10 kg, making them ideal for tasks such as assembly, packaging, and machine tending.

Cobot Model	Payload Capacity	Applications
YuMi	2.5 kg	Precision assembly, small parts handling
GoFa	5 kg	Collaborative assembly, machine tending
SWIFTI	10 kg	Palletizing, welding, material handling

Industrial Robots

Industrial robots are designed for high-volume, precision tasks in manufacturing and logistics environments. They offer a wide range of payload capacities, from 50 kg to 1,200 kg, and can perform a variety of tasks, including welding, painting, material handling, and assembly.

Industrial Robot Model	Payload Capacity	Applications
IRB 140	50 kg	Welding, painting, assembly
IRB 4600	300 kg	Palletizing, machine tending, material handling
IRB 920T	1,200 kg	Heavy payload handling, automotive assembly

Service Robots

Service robots are designed for specialized applications outside of manufacturing, such as healthcare, hospitality, and retail. These robots offer a wide range of capabilities, including navigation, object manipulation, and human interaction.

Service Robot Model	Capabilities	Applications
YuMi Service	Object manipulation, human interaction	Healthcare, hospitality
