ABB IRB 120 (6 Axes Robot)

Technical Data

  • Operating voltage: 230V/1/N/PE/50Hz
  • Nominal power: 1,5 kW
  • Fusing: 16 A
  • Delivery rate:
  • Worm pump 24L 0S: 1,5 to 9,5 l/min infinitely adjustable
  • Worm pump 10L 0S: 0,6 to 4,0 l/min infinitely adjustable
  • L x W x H: 75 x 34 x 43 cm
  • Filling height: 75 cm
  • Total weight: 33 kg

Health & Safety

  • Never run the machine dry, at least water is needed to operate the pump otherwise damage may occur.
  • Never let the material fall below the minimum material level and always keep the screw under the material.
  • Never disconnect the hose when there is any pressure in the pressure gauge.

Operating the machine

  • Using the pump

- Turn on the switch on the controller

- Step 1: Turn on the main switch

- Step 2: Pour the mixed material into the hopper

- Step 3: Turn the Forward/Reverse Switch to FWD

- Step 4: Turn the Speed control to the desired speed

Stopping the pump:

- Turn on the switch on the controller

- Step 1: Turn the Forward/Reverse control to 0

- Step 2: Turn off the main switch

Cleaning the machine

Step 1: Wash the hopper with clean water, rub the hopper if it is necessary

Important:

Never use any cutter or any sharp/rough tools to clean the hopper, always use the rubber tool that is provided.

Step 3: Soak a sponge ball in water.

Warning!

Never disconnect the hose when there is any pressure in the pressure gauge. Remove the remaining pressure gauge reaches 0.


Step 4: Open the hose coupling, insert the sponge ball into the hose.

Step 5: Reconnect the hose coupling

Step 6: Start pumping and wait for the sponge ball to come out of the hose.

Step 7: Grease the pump after cleaning to ensure the pump gasket is residue free.

Step 8: Ensure that the grease is pushed out of the pump gasket.

Robotic Processes

  • Pen Writing
  • Pick & Place
  • 3D Scan
  • Spraying
  • Reverse Milling (to be combined with Pick&Place application)
  • 3D printing (plastic, clay, hydrogel...)
