Abstract

For many years, ABB has been setting the standard for flexible automation in a wide range of industries. Combining pace with precision, the IRB 340 FlexPicker, for example, is opening up new markets as it drastically reduces the cost of pick and place operations. A range of refinements, including a brand new software package dubbed PickMaster, a wash‐down version of the IRB 340 robot and an upgraded controller for unparalleled speed and motion control, now give FlexPicker even more robotic muscle.
