IRB 140T – turbo

Cycle-times are considerably reduced

Reductions between 15-20 % are possible using pure axis 1 and 2 movements.

Well suited for packing applications and guided operations together with PickMaster.

Top 5 sales arguments

Very short cycle times Very reliable due to robust

design Outstanding accuracy with

TrueMove 2nd generation Can be mounted at any

angle Built for real life Unique protection variants

for a small robot

Very short cycle times

Precise dynamic model for serial robot

Advanced servo control

On-line optimization of robot speed and acceleration

Outstanding in short and medium movements

Competition

Sometimes higher axis speed but lower acceleration and deceleration, which means longer cycle times.

Very reliable due to rubust design

Rigid structure+fast brakes +collision detection software = High collision resistance

Spur gears for high accuracy

Fully integrated cable harness

Media integrated up to upper arm (IO, air, power)

MTBF 204,000 h for manipulator

Competition

Less collision resistant due to weaker structures

Compact gears – less robust

Less collision resistant due to less accurate dynamic model

Outstanding Accuracy

Rigid steel structure, hardly affected by thermal expansion

TrueMove 2nd generation technology ensures leading accuracy for path, position and speed

Crucial in all applications with demand on precision

Backlash eliminators (axis 1, 2 and 3) secure the path following

Competition

Less accurate dynamic models.

Speed dependant path accuracy – need for adjustments and modifications

Aluminium and plastic structures which are less rigid

Designed for Real Life

Maximum payload, wrist load, and arm load at the same time

Built to work with max. payload and full speed continuously in process applications

Competition

Increased arm load reduces payload capacity

Cannot work continuously with max payload and speed
