ABB Robotics IRB 2600ID Overview
The ABB IRB 2600ID is a six-axis industrial robot available with a 15 kg payload and 1850 mm reach or an 8 kg payload and 2000 mm reach, with a position repeatability of ±0.026 mm and ±0.023 mm respectively. Its process cables and hoses run inside the upper arm, which suits arc welding and material handling in dense cells. The robot can be floor, wall, inverted or tilted mounted and runs on the IRC5 controller.

ABB Robotics IRB 2600ID Review Summary
The IRB 2600ID is the integrated-dressing version of the IRB 2600: its process cables and hoses run inside the upper arm. It comes as the IRB 2600ID-15/1.85 with a 15 kg payload, 1850 mm reach and ±0.026 mm repeatability, or the IRB 2600ID-8/2.00 with an 8 kg payload, 2000 mm reach and ±0.023 mm repeatability. It suits arc welding and material handling in dense cells, and is listed from USD 55,000.
Pros
Process cables and hoses routed inside the upper arm
Reach of 1850 or 2000 mm
Repeatability of ±0.023 to ±0.026 mm
Floor, wall, inverted or tilted mounting
Wide fieldbus support on IRC5
Cons
Upper arm is rated IP54 rather than IP67
Runs on the older IRC5 controller platform
Starting price of USD 55,000
Who It Is For
The IRB 2600ID fits welding and handling cells with several robots working close together, where internal cable routing saves space and reduces wear.
