IRB 4600 Overview

What is IRB 4600?

IRB 4600 is a highly productive general purpose robot optimized for short cycle times where compact robots can help create high density cells. The IRB 4600 enables more compact manufacturing cells with increased production output and higher quality - and that means improved productivity.


Shortest cycle times

Thanks to the new compact and optimized design resulting in a low weight, the IRB 4600 can cut the cycle times of the industry benchmark by up to 25%. The maximum acceleration achievable is highest in its class, together with high maximum speeds. With the high acceleration it is possible to use to avoid obstacles or to follow the path. The benefit is increased production capacity and higher productivity.


Ultra-wide working range

You can position the IRB 4600 in the most favorable way with regard to reach, cycle time and auxiliary equipment. Flexible mounting with floor, tilted, semishelf or inverted mounting is very useful when you are simulating the best position for your application.


Compactness

The small footprint, the slim swing base radius around axis 1, the fine elbow behind axis 3, the small lower and upper arms, and the compact wrist all contribute to the most compact robot in its class. With the IRB 4600 you can create your production cell with reduced floorspace by placing the robot closer to the served machines, which also increases your output and your productivity.


Best protection available

ABB has the most comprehensive protection program on the market and it will be even further enhanced with the IRB 4600. Foundry Plus includes IP 67, resistant paint, rust protected mounting flange and protection for molten metal spits on non-moving cables on the rear of the robot and extra protection plates over the floor cable connections on the foot.


Optimize and go sharp

To get the IRB 4600 ready for the targeted applications you have access to high performing Workpiece Positioners, Track Motions, and the Motor and Gear Unit range. To simulate your production cell to find the optimal position for the robot and program it offline, RobotStudio is available on subscription together with PowerPacs for several applications.

Testimonial
I worked with the ABB IRB 4600 robot model a few years ago, where I did the integration between robots and Siemens PLCs in an automotive welding and assembly line. The ease of communication that this robot model provides for automation professionals is really incredible. The versatility of being able to adapt different network protocols such as Profibus, Profinet, Modbus and even DeviceNet is one of the few examples of the quality and versatility that the equipment provides. In addition, ABB's programming platform is extremely intuitive and greatly facilitates the development of long codes and complex assembly structures, as it has simplification and repetition tools that adapt to the language forms of various PLCs and other components such such as welding machines, safety devices, hydraulic and pneumatic actuators, not to mention the ease of connection with ERP and MES tools. But remembering that you should always be aware of the robot's limits with regard to the force committed to its axes by the work process, the safety speed for correct operation of the procedures and the load that must be moved.
