IRB 6730S

About this product

High-performance, space-optimized shelf robots. Payloads from 130kg to 270kg CLASS-LEADING PERFORMANCE AND SUSTAINABILITY BENEFITS The IRB 6730S comes with a heightened focus on efficient modular design and energy savings of up to 20%¹, while delivering world-class performance and quality. The robot optimizes space as it can be mounted at a height position and has increased downward reach, bringing flexibility to the maximum. The robots are ideal for material handling, die casting, and welding applications. Optimizing space The IRB 6730S can be installed at heights above floor level, providing excellent full vertical and horizontal motion to increase downward reach. This optimizes space, especially for tasks that require reaching into machines (such as die casting and injection molding), crossing down from the elevated track for material handling, or moving from the second to the first floor for car body spot welding. Unmatched productivity and quality Powered by the OmniCore controller, the IRB 6730S achieves class-leading motion control with path accuracy down to 0.9 mm and position repeatability down to 0.06 mm. ¹IRB 6730S compared with its predecessor IRB 6650S-200/3.0 running on IRC5. KEY BENEFITS - Energy savings: Combined with OmniCore, the IRB 6730S consumes 20% less energy. - Designed to last: LeanID DressPack eliminates swinging cables and supports off-line programming to enhance uptime. - Increased productivity: Achieves class-leading motion control with path accuracy down to 0.9 mm. - Leaner: Up to 500kg weight reduction enables leaner cell and pedestal design. ENERGY SAVINGS UP TO 20% AND MODULAR DESIGN Helping customers operate more sustainably, the IRB 6730S combined with the OmniCore controller consumes 20%1 less energy. This is achieved by the robot’s efficient design and the OmniCore energy regeneration technology, with the built-in power pack able to return energy back to the grid. The IRB 6730S is based on the same groundbreaking modular design as the whole large robot family recently launched by ABB. Due to its modularity, many components, such as the wrist, gearboxes, motors, and cable harness, are shared with other modular large robots, reducing the total cost of ownership through shared spare parts and service tools. TARGET APPLICATIONS - Injection moulding: the shelf-mounted robots are especially suited for large injection molding machines over 1,000 tons. The flexibility of the six-axis robot facilitates post-process applications like flaming and assembly operations. - Die casting: the unique working envelope ensures easy access for die spraying as well as part handling. - Material handling: the shelf robot can cross down from the elevated track for material handling. - Spot welding: Several shelf robots on the second level, coupled with the floor-mounted IRB 67XO on the first floor can work together to increase robot density for the same car body or component.
