ABB IRB 6720 200/2.80 LID
Robot details
The ABB IRB 6720‑200/2.80 LID is a heavy‑duty 6‑axis industrial robot, designed to deliver high payload performance, extended reach, and enhanced mechanical efficiency through ABB’s advanced LID (Load Integrated Drive) technology. Based on the proven ABB IRB 6700 platform, this robot is optimized for demanding industrial applications requiring strength, rigidity, and long‑term reliability.
With a maximum payload of 200 kg and an extended reach of 2,800 mm, the IRB 6720‑200/2.80 LID is ideally suited for heavy material handling, automotive body‑in‑white (BIW) operations, machine tending, press tending, and manipulation of large or bulky components. The Load Integrated Drive architecture integrates the main drive directly into the robot structure, reducing external components, improving load distribution, and enabling smoother motion with higher system uptime.
Powered by the ABB IRC5 controller, the robot fully leverages ABB’s advanced motion technologies such as TrueMove™ and QuickMove™, ensuring precise path control, synchronized axis motion, and optimized cycle times even under continuous high‑duty operation. Despite its high payload and extended reach, the robot maintains a compact footprint relative to its class, allowing efficient integration into modern heavy‑automation cells.
The ABB IRB 6720‑200/2.80 LID is an excellent solution for manufacturers seeking modern heavy‑payload automation with improved dynamics, reduced maintenance, and lower total cost of ownership.
