Developments in handheld control for robots
Hand held control for robots is taking a quantum leap forward with the development of a range of next generation application software devices, based on the Microsoft.NET Compact Framework
Another advantage is that the robot can be mounted upside-down, maximising existing space.
As a modified version of the standard IRB 540 robot, it offers the same economical benefits and powerful software, while delivering constant high quality finish and reduced overspray, thus reducing material consumption and waste.
ABB proven surface finish technology ensures the IRB 540-02S provides high quality finish for all powder, solvent and waterborne paint processes, irrespective of product shape.
That is not all; the ABB Brush concept allows the Brush characteristics to be constantly updated to match the surface being sprayed - thus reducing cycle time and overspray.
The quality of the robot spraying precision is matched by its high speed and fast acceleration, provided by ABB state-of-the-art motor, drive and transmission technology.
What is more, the IRB 540-02S robot uses the ABB modular S4P+ controller, which is designed to the highest level of operational reliability.
In support of the S4P+, ABB offers a training programme second-to-none, thereby increasing efficiency and significantly reducing service and engineering costs. Request a free brochure from ABB Robotics ...
