ABB IRB 6720 215/2.65 LID
Robot details
The ABB IRB 6720‑215/2.65 LID is a heavy‑duty 6‑axis industrial robot designed for high‑payload handling with improved efficiency, rigidity, and compact integration, thanks to LID (Load Integrated Drive) technology. Built on ABB’s proven IRB 6700 platform, this robot is engineered for demanding industrial applications requiring strength, reliability, and long‑term performance.
With a maximum payload of 215 kg and a reach of 2,650 mm, the IRB 6720‑215/2.65 LID is ideal for heavy material handling, automotive body‑in‑white (BIW) handling, machine tending, press tending, and manipulation of large components. The Load Integrated Drive architecture integrates the main drive directly into the robot structure, reducing external components, improving load distribution, and delivering smoother motion and higher system reliability.
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, the robot maintains a compact footprint relative to its class, enabling efficient integration into space‑constrained heavy automation cells.
The ABB IRB 6720‑215/2.65 LID is an ideal solution for manufacturers seeking modern heavy‑payload automation with reduced maintenance, improved dynamics, and lower total cost of ownership.
