In a world where sustainability and operational efficiency are essential, maximizing the lifespan of industrial machinery has become a strategic priority. With this in mind, ABB Robotics has introduced a comprehensive Robot Modernization Service designed to extend the life of its industrial robot arms through upgraded components, software, and controllers. The initiative not only cuts
The rapid rise of electric mobility is transforming global manufacturing. Battery gigafactories demand high‑precision automation, controlled environments, and scalable production capacity. Yet many companies encounter a major challenge: high investment costs for industrial robots. Refurbished robotics is eliminating this barrier—driving growth, sustainability, and accessibility in the EV sector. Key Advantages of Refurbished Industrial Robots Cost
Industrial recycling is undergoing a quiet but profound transformation. Until recently, the separation and processing of materials largely relied on traditional manual or mechanical methods. Today, thanks to robotics, these tasks are becoming automated, increasing efficiency and reducing workplace risks. What is truly innovative, however, is that much of this automation is being achieved using
In the era of accelerated automation, many factories face the same dilemma: their robots work, but their control systems are outdated. The solution? Retrofitting. Modernising an obsolete industrial robot not only saves investment, it also prolongs its service life and improves its performance at a much lower cost than a new machine. What is robotic
In the era of industrial automation, the need for cost-effective and efficient solutions has never been more crucial. In sectors operating in hazardous environments, such as mining, heavy manufacturing, and the chemical industry, the implementation of industrial robots not only improves productivity but also protects workers from unnecessary risks. In this context, refurbished Fanuc robots
ABB Robotics has recently introduced the RB 1000i-S, an innovative paint atomizer designed to improve the efficiency and sustainability of automotive paint shops. This new device, mounted on top of ABB robots, increases paint transfer efficiency by 10% and reduces paint waste by 30% compared to its predecessor, the RB 1000i. Need for Efficiency and
