IRB 1300

The IRB 1300 is a versatile compact robot designed for medium-payload applications requiring reliable performance in diverse manufacturing environments. With a payload of 10 kg and reach of 1.15 m, the IRB 1300 bridges the gap between ultra-compact and medium-sized robots. It delivers excellent repeatability and is suitable for material handling, assembly, and machine tending in confined spaces where a larger footprint cannot be accommodated.

Frequently Asked Questions

The IRB 1200 offers higher speed for small payloads (5-9 kg) in ultra-compact spaces. The IRB 1300 bridges to the IRB 1600 with 10 kg payload and 1.15 m reach. The IRB 1600 provides extended reach (1.2-1.45 m) for slightly heavier applications. Choose based on your payload requirements and workspace constraints.

The IRB 1300 is ideal for material handling, assembly operations, machine loading/unloading, component placement, and pick-and-place applications where a 10 kg payload and 1.15 m reach meet the requirements in a compact footprint.

Yes, the IRB 1300 supports optional protective coatings including Foundry Plus for harsh environments, IP67 upgrades for washdown applications, and clean room options for controlled manufacturing environments.

The IRB 1300 is programmed using ABB's RAPID language and supports RobotStudio for offline programming and simulation. Lead-through programming allows manual teaching of movements for simple applications.

The standard IRB 1300 is not collaborative-rated. However, ABB offers collaborative alternatives like GoFa or YuMi if human-robot collaboration is required. The IRB 1300 can operate safely behind barriers or in segregated areas.

Energy consumption varies based on application duty cycle. With OmniCore controllers, the IRB 1300 benefits from up to 20% energy savings through optimized motion control and regenerative braking technology compared to legacy systems.
