Published interfaces are PROFINET, EtherNet/IP, CC-Link IE Field Basic, DeviceNet, 16 digital inputs and 16 digital outputs.
ABB SWIFTI CRB 1300-11/0.9 Applications and Use Cases
Typical applications for the SWIFTI CRB 1300-11/0.9 are assembly, machine tending, screwdriving, material handling and inspection.
High-Speed Machine Tending
A 6.2 m/s maximum TCP speed shortens load and unload times on machines where a conventional cobot would limit output.
Assembly and Screwdriving
The ±0.02 mm repeatability and 11 kg payload suit fast assembly steps with heavier tools.
Material Handling and Inspection
The arm transfers parts quickly between stations and can present them to inspection systems.
