Main applications:

• Palletizing,
• De-palletizing,
• Material handling

Shorter cycle times
The IRB 460 is the world’s fastest palletizing robot, capable of significantly shortening cycle times and raising productivity for end-of line and bag palletizing. With a reach of 2.4 meters and 110-kilogram payload capacity, this compact, four-axis robot can achieve up to 2,190 cycles per hour with a 60 kg load That’s 15 percent faster than its nearest rival.

High precision movements
Utilizing ABB’s patented motion control software, QuickMove™ and TrueMove™, the IRB 460 ensures palletizing is carried out with smooth movements and high path accurary. This means even the most sensitive products will be handled with great care without loosing cycle time.

Higher output from a smaller footprint
The compact design of the IRB 460 allows pallets to be placed 20 percent closer to the robot as compared with competitors’ robots with similar speeds and payloads. This factor alone can increase productivity by up to three percent.

Low cost of ownership and increased productivity
The robot’s robust and rigid design – manufactured to automotive industry standards – ensures high uptime and low maintenance costs. The IRB 460 also features integrated process cabling which helps extend life and reduces wear. We also offer RoboCare, a three-year warranty package, that ensures worry-free operation of your robots at a fixed cost. This package includes the patented ABB wireless Remote Services, which enables ABB experts to
monitor robots and suggest optimized maintenance to further increase productivity.
