The IRB 1200 is one of the latest generation of 6-axis industrial robots from ABB Robotics with a payload of 5 to 7kg.

It is designed for manufacturing industries that use robot-based flexible automation, such as the 3C industry.

The robot’s open architecture makes it particularly suitable for flexible use and allows extensive communication with external systems.

IRB 1200 Type A

Type A – Axis Calibration

The difference between the IRB 1200 and the IRB 1200 Type A is that the Type A uses axis calibration. Each axis has a bushing on which the calibration tool is mounted.

Therefore, the castings of the IRB 1200 and IRB 1200 A models are different.

How do I know the type of robot?

The type label on the robot base indicates whether the robot is axis calibrated or not.

These robots are named IRB 1200 A models.

Robots that are not axis calibrated are simply named IRB 1200 (no type indicated).

IRB 1200 Type B

Type B – SafeMove 2

The IRB 1200 Type B differs from the other www.cniacs.com IRB 1200 versions in that

Type B supports SafeMove 2.

Therefore, the following components differ from the other versions:
