ABB IRB 6730 220/2.90 LID
Robot details
The ABB IRB 6730‑220/2.90 LID is a heavy‑duty 6‑axis industrial robot featuring LID (Load Integrated Drive) technology, engineered to deliver high payload handling, extended reach, and enhanced mechanical rigidity for demanding industrial automation tasks. Built on ABB’s proven IRB 6700 platform, this robot combines robustness with modern drive integration for improved efficiency and reliability.
With a maximum payload of 220 kg and an extended reach of 2,900 mm, the IRB 6730‑220/2.90 LID is ideal for heavy material handling, automotive body‑in‑white (BIW) handling, press tending, machine tending, and manipulation of large or bulky components across wide work envelopes. The Load Integrated Drive architecture integrates the main drive 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 benefits from ABB’s advanced motion technologies such as TrueMove™ and QuickMove™, ensuring precise path control, synchronized axis movements, and optimized cycle times even under continuous high‑duty operation. The result is lower maintenance, improved dynamics, and reduced total cost of ownership compared to conventional drive layouts.
The ABB IRB 6730‑220/2.90 LID is an excellent solution for manufacturers seeking long‑reach heavy automation with modern drive technology and proven ABB industrial reliability.
