Press-shop is one of the most capital intensive processes in auto industry Increasing output means a higher return over the installed equipment Upgrading existing lines (Brownfield’s) is also a big focus for ABB

IRB 6660FX complements ABB’s fast parts transfer IRB 7600FX
Integration of the dual action linear 7th axis to IRB 6660, allows transfer of parts along a linear path,
Eliminates vibration created by conventional 6-axis robot’s 180º rotation of part
Its dynamic model coordinates all seven axes ensuring optimum speed, accuracy and lifetime.

Dual action:
The main structure moving respect to 6-axis wrist
Carrier (mobile wagon), with tool attachment, moving along the main structure
Minimized height (H=130)
IRB 6660 FX Optimized Carbon Fiber tooling design
Š ABB Group May 16, 2013 | Slide 6
IRB 6660 FX Optimized Carbon Fiber tooling design Benefits:
Optimum stiffness/weight ratio
Optimized shape design: reduced tooling height to minimize press occupation
Unified tooling for 6 and 7 axis robots
Ergonomic - since tooling to be changed is smaller
Fewer components
Requires less room for storage
Aluminum antennas
Carbon Fiber Gondola arm
The carbon fiber tooling increases output thanks to its shape design which has been optimized for tool height. As a result it can be placed into the die at lower press opening © ABB Group May 16, 2013 | Slide 7
