ABB IRB 4400FS30 M98A

Year 1999. Shelf long arm version of the IRB4400 with 2744 mm horizontal arm reach and 30 kg payload. In contrast to conventional six-axis robots, shelf robots have their principal working envelope below the foot. Thus, from its elevated position on top or adjacent to the IMM, the IRB 4400 FS30 reaches more than 1m below its foot, providing quick and easy access to the workpiece or to the die in the machine. The exceptional reach, complemented by a payload of 30 kg, make the IRB 4400 FS particularly suited to applications where space is at a minimum, as is often found in plastic injection moulding applications.

The IRB 4400FS is an attractive alternative to the three-axis robot, traditionally used for IMM tending. The ABB robot’s six-axis technology makes it superior in versatility, reach and precision - qualities that help minimise cycle times and optimise product quality.

Additionally, the IRB 4400S can perform post-process tasks in parallel during each ‘shoot’, while conventional three-axis robots remain idle due to their purely linear movement limitations. Post-process tasks can include cleaning, flaming, quality control, punching and assembly, allowing plant designers to reduce the number of downstream stations and reduce plant throughput times.

The S4C controller enables RAPID instructions making programming easier.
