ABB IRB 6740 310/2.80
Robot details
The ABB IRB 6740‑310/2.80 is a very heavy‑duty 6‑axis industrial robot, engineered to handle extremely high payloads with excellent rigidity, precision, and long‑term reliability. As part of ABB’s proven IRB 6700 series, this robot is designed for the most demanding industrial environments requiring strength, stability, and continuous high‑duty operation.
With a maximum payload of 310 kg and a reach of 2,800 mm, the IRB 6740‑310/2.80 is ideal for handling very large and heavy components, including automotive body handling, press tending, machine loading, and heavy material transfer. Its reinforced mechanical structure and optimized arm geometry ensure smooth motion, stable path accuracy, and consistent repeatability, even at maximum payload.
Powered by the ABB IRC5 controller, the robot utilizes ABB’s advanced motion technologies such as TrueMove™ and QuickMove™, delivering precise trajectory control, synchronized axis movements, and optimized cycle times. Despite its extremely high payload capacity, the robot maintains a compact footprint relative to its class, enabling efficient integration into heavy‑automation production cells.
The ABB IRB 6740‑310/2.80 is the ideal solution for manufacturers seeking maximum payload handling with proven ABB industrial robustness and reliability.
