The ABB Robotics booth lineup

  • Material Handling, Machine Tending

    Floor mounted, wall mounted or suspended from the roof, ABB can handle payloads of up to 500 kg with ease and precision. Whatever the application and not matter how hostile the environment, ABB robotics covers the whole spectrum within metal fabrication. From the IRB 140 to the IRB 7600, our robotic portfolio will help you automate your process and increase production. 

    Through CIM Systems, Hitachi Powdered Metals did just that. They started with one robot, today they are fully automated, operating with 200 ABB robots. Through robotic automation, they were able to increase their production by 400%. 

  • Picking, packing, palletizing perfection

    The need to efficiently serve a wide range of customer preferences is a critical challenge facing food and beverage, healthcare and consumer product manufacturers. 

    Our leading portfolio of purpose-fit solutions and deep packaging application expertise helps our customers keep pace with the market, while maintaining efficient, safe and reliable operations. 

    Our robotic solutions efficiently handle the most complex load mixes and meet surges of peak demand through our mixed load palletizing and depalletizing systems. 

  • Inherently safe, incredibly agile Cobots

    ABB pioneered robotics more than 47 years ago, when we invented the first commercial microprocessor-controlled industrial robot. We continue to push the limits of innovation with our latest portfolio expansion.

    The NEW GoFa™ and SWIFTI™ collaborative robot (cobot) families, offer higher payloads and speeds, to complement YuMi® and Single-arm YuMi®  in ABB's cobot line-up. These NEW cobots will help companies accelerate growth across a variety of industries, including electronics, healthcare, consumer goods, logistics, & food and beverage.

Speaker Highlight

 

 

ABB Robotics Marc Segura - Automate Forward keynote speaker

ABB's own Marc Segura will address Automate Forward as a keynote speaker on March 25, 2021 at 11 a.m. EST. The session will discuss value chain integration and optimization through robotics in consumer segments and retail.

Manufacturers and retailers of consumer goods cannot win in today’s environment unless they are strong & efficient in logistics, flexible in manufacturing and have a clear understanding of the retail channels.  Accelerated by this past year’s global pandemic, supply chains and logistics will need to undergo fundamental transformation to meet the changing consumer behaviors and stay ahead of demand and competition in order to stay in business.  Join this session to see just how robotics and automation are helping to overcome these challenges.
