ABB Robotics launches large industrial robots, heavy duty AMR at Automatica - The Robot Report

ABB Robotics has expanded its industrial robot portfolio with the introduction of new high-performance models, including the IRB 670S, IRB 6730S, IRB 6750S shelf-mounted robots, and the IRB 6760 press-tending robot. These robots are designed to enhance production density and flexibility, with payload capacities up to 350 kg and advanced motion capabilities suitable for industries such as automotive, foundry, construction, and general manufacturing. Powered by ABB’s OmniCore controllers, these robots offer up to 20% energy savings and improved precision, with path accuracy down to 0.9 mm. ABB highlighted that these next-generation robots can collaborate to optimize plant productivity, such as increasing spot welds on car bodies by integrating shelf-mounted and floor-mounted units. In addition to the new robots, ABB introduced the Flexley Mover P603, a compact autonomous mobile robot (AMR) capable of handling heavy payloads up to 1,500 kg. This AM
