Frequently Asked Questions

E10 is for ultra-compact spaces and small SCARA robots; C30 for small-medium robots like IRB 1200-1300; C90XT for medium-large robots; V250XT for delta, palletizing, and large articulated robots; V500 for maximum performance and complexity. Choose based on robot size and feature requirements.

OmniCore uses optimized motion control algorithms, regenerative braking technology returning power to the grid, and efficient servo systems. TrueMove and QuickMove minimize unnecessary movements and acceleration, reducing power consumption while maintaining speed and precision.

Yes, many OmniCore variants (especially C90XT, V250XT, V500) can control multiple robots and external axes simultaneously. This multi-robot capability enables coordinated motion, reduces equipment footprint, and simplifies integration of complex multi-robot cells.

OmniCore includes built-in OPC UA and MQTT for seamless integration with MES, ERP, and IoT platforms. Combined with ABB Ability cloud services, it enables real-time monitoring, predictive maintenance, and data-driven production optimization.

OmniCore is designed for next-generation robots. Older ABB robot systems may require controller upgrades to use OmniCore. ABB migration services and consulting help assess compatibility and plan upgrades for legacy installations.

ABB provides 24/7 global technical support, comprehensive documentation, developer forums, and training programs. OmniCore is compatible with condition-based maintenance through Connected Services for predictive support and optimization.
