Description

The IRB 1200 is a robotic arm designed by ABB, and it comes in two variants:

1. Payload Variant 1: Payload capacity of 7 kg and a reach of 700 mm.
2. Payload Variant 2: Payload capacity of 5 kg and a reach of 900 mm.

Key features of the IRB 1200:

1. Compact Size: It is designed 15% smaller, making it more space-efficient.
2. Shorter Cycle Times: It is 10% faster, allowing for quicker operations.
3. Versatility: It is suitable for various applications due to its adaptable nature.
4. Protection: It has IP40 protection as standard, making it resistant to solid objects with a diameter greater than 1 mm. Additionally, there are options available for higher protection like IP67 in Foundry Plus 2, which makes it suitable for harsh environments.
5. Large Work Area: It offers a large work area, making it usable on a compact surface.
6. Latest IRC5 Controller: The robot is equipped with the IRC5 controller, which is ABB’s fifth-generation robot controller.
7. Motion Control Technology: The IRC5 utilizes TrueMove and QuickMove motion control technology, which enhances the robot’s performance in terms of accuracy, speed, cycle time, programmability, and synchronization with external devices.
8. RAPID Programming Language: The IRB 1200 uses the RAPID programming language, which offers a perfect combination of simplicity, flexibility, and powerful features. It provides support for various process applications.
9. Communication: The IRC5 supports state-of-the-art field busses for I/O and can act as a well-behaved node in any plant network. It also has powerful networking features, including sensor interfaces, remote disk access, and socket messaging.
