IRB 4400 Industrial Robot

Main Applications

Cutting and deburring - Grinding and polishing - Machine tending - Material handling

Fast, compact and versatile industrial robot

An extremely fast, compact robot for medium to heavy han-dling. Exceptional all-round capabilities make it suitable for a variety of manufacturing applications. The load capacity of 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 compact design and protected versions enables use in situa-tions where conventional robots cannot work, such as foundry and spraying applications. The foundry plus version is IP 67 protected and can be washed with high pressure steam, which makes it ideal for use in harsh environments.

Reliability and economy

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 mainte-nance-free gearboxes and cabling also contribute to the very high levels of reliability. The drive train is optimised to give high torque with the lowest power consumption for economic operation.

Extensive communication for easy integration

The extensive communication capabilities include serial links, network interfaces, PLC, remote I/O and field bus interfaces. This makes for easy integration in small manufacturing sta-tions as well as large scale factory automation systems.
