ABB IRB 6740 220/3.20 LID
Robot details
The ABB IRB 6740‑220/3.20 LID is a very heavy‑duty 6‑axis industrial robot, engineered to combine high payload capacity, extra‑long reach, and exceptional structural rigidity for the most demanding industrial automation environments. Featuring LID (Load Integrated Drive) technology, this robot integrates the main drive directly into the robot structure, reducing external components and significantly improving system efficiency and reliability.
With a maximum payload of 220 kg and an extended reach of 3,200 mm, the IRB 6740‑220/3.20 LID is ideally suited for handling very large and heavy components over wide work envelopes. Typical applications include automotive body‑in‑white (BIW) handling, press tending, heavy machine loading, large structure manipulation, and long‑reach material transfer. Its reinforced arm construction ensures smooth motion, high positional stability, and consistent path accuracy, even during continuous high‑duty operation at maximum reach.
Powered by the ABB IRC5 controller, the robot fully exploits ABB’s advanced motion technologies such as TrueMove™ and QuickMove™, providing precise trajectory control, synchronized axis movements, and optimized cycle times. Thanks to the Load Integrated Drive architecture, the IRB 6740‑220/3.20 LID offers lower maintenance requirements, higher uptime, improved dynamics, and reduced total cost of ownership compared to conventional very heavy‑payload robots.
The ABB IRB 6740‑220/3.20 LID is the ideal solution for manufacturers requiring extra‑long‑reach very heavy automation with modern drive technology and proven ABB industrial reliability.
