An extremely fast, compact robot for medium to heavy handling. Exceptional all-round capabilities make it suitable for a variety of manufacturing applications.
The load capacity up to 45-60 kg at very high speeds usually permits handling of two parts at a time.
A rigid, well-balanced design and patented TrueMove function provide smooth and fast movement throughout the entire working range. This ensures very high quality in applications such as cutting. Rapid maneuverability makes the IRB 4400 perfectly matched for applications where speed and flexibility are important.
The robust, rigid construction means long intervals between routine maintenance. Well-balanced steel arms with double bearing joints, a torque-strut on axis 2 and use of maintenance-free gearboxes and cabling also contribute to the very high levels of reliability.
Equipped with the latest IRC5 controller.
IRC5 is ABB’s fifth generation robot controller. Its motion control technology, TrueMove & QuickMove, is key to the robot’s performance in terms of accuracy, speed, cycle-time, programmability and synchronization with external devices.
Based on advanced dynamic modeling, the IRC5 optimizes the performance of the robot for the physically shortest possible cycle time (QuickMove) and precise path accuracy (TrueMove). Together with a speed-independent path, predictable and high- performance behavior is delivered automatically, with no tuning required by the programmer.
RAPID programming language
The perfect combination of simplicity, flexibility and powerful- ness. RAPID is a truly unlimited language with hosts of advanced features and powerful support for many process applications.
Communication
The IRC5 supports the state-of-the-art field busses for I/O and is a well-behaved node in any plant network. Sensor interfaces, remote disk access and socket messaging are examples of the many powerful networking features.
