IRB 8700 is one of ABB’s most incredible and highest speed adjustable robotic models of the eighth generation of high-performance industrial robots.
ABB IRB 8700 has a reach of 3.5 meters and a payload capacity of up to 800 kg. It is designed for heavy-lift applications, optimized counterweight, and parallel connections. It provides the advantage of 25% faster with a unique motor design. The speed can be automatically adjusted according to the weight and width of the product, thanks to ABB’s motion control technology at high moments of inertia (725 kgm2), allowing the robot to adapt, or minimize its speed, to locate parts heavy and wide.
This model uses LeanID. It is a DressPack that creates greater flexibility in six-axis robots by optimizing production demand and cost-resistance in one cladding package. Easy to simulate in offline programming, it has a long service life, a wide working range, and efficiently operates confined spaces. The exceptional reliability of this model will work with reasonably high uptime in 24/7 productions.
The simplified design of the IRB 8700 has only one motor and one gear per robot axis. There are no gas springs, only a reliable counterweight and mechanical springs for the equalizer resulting in fewer failures with shorter cycle times and higher accuracy.
A particularity of the IRB 8700 is the high-speed handling considering its high load capacity. It is due to its compact design, improvements in the counterweight, parallel linkages, rigid shafts, and fewer drive motors.
The point of sustainability is also included in the IRB 8700. It complies with the environmental directive RoHS 2002/95 / EC and the Reach directives No1907 / 2006 for the use of non-hazardous materials.
The IRB 8700 represents reliability and low maintenance, with a lower total cost of ownership among highly competitive payload robot models.
ABB developed this robotic model for material handling applications in automotive, transportation, and other heavy industries. ABB’s massive payload robots are adapted with the harsh environment protection system with IP67 protection that withstands high-pressure steam scrubbing and is interpreted in lower correction number and longer service life.
ABB Robotics company dedicated its experience and technological developments to improve high performance.
