Product catalog summary
Overview
The IRB 120 is ABB's smallest industrial robot, part of their fourth-generation robotic technology. It is designed for material handling and assembly applications, offering agility, compactness, and superior control.

Specifications
The IRB 120 weighs 25 kg and features a compact design, allowing it to be mounted in various positions. It has a horizontal reach of 580 mm and can reach 112 mm below its base. The robot's symmetric architecture and slim wrist enable close proximity mounting and enhanced reach.

Multipurpose Use
Suitable for industries such as electronics, food and beverage, machinery, solar, pharmaceutical, medical, and research. A Clean Room ISO class 5 version is available for environments with strict cleanliness standards.

Food Grade Lubrication
The robot includes a Food Grade Lubrication option (NSF H1) with Clean Room ISO Class 5, ensuring safety and hygiene in food and beverage applications.

Integration and Control
The IRB 120 is easy to integrate, with internal routing for cables and air supply. It can be mounted at any angle. The IRC5 Compact controller offers space-saving benefits and easy commissioning.

Performance
The robot is fast, accurate, and agile, with a light aluminum structure and powerful motors. The IRB 120T variant reduces cycle times by up to 25% for applications requiring extensive re-orientation.

Environmental Conditions
Operational temperature ranges from +5°C to +45°C, with storage conditions from -25°C to +55°C. The robot can handle up to 95% relative humidity and emits a maximum noise level of 70 dB(A).

Technical Features
Includes integrated signal and air supply, position repeatability of 0.01 mm, and IP30 protection. The robot's movement range and speed vary across its six axes, with maximum speeds reaching up to 600 °/s.

Electrical and Physical Specifications
Operates on a supply voltage of 200–600 V, with a power consumption of 0.25 kW. The robot base measures 180 x 180 mm, with a height of 700 mm.

Additional Features
RobotStudio software allows for offline programming and simulation to optimize production cell positioning and reduce downtime. The compact design of the IRB 120 and IRC5 Compact controller minimizes the footprint, ideal for space-constrained applications.

IRB 120 industrial robot-1

ABB’s smallest robot – for flexible and compact The IRB 120 robot is the latest addition to ABB’s new fourthgeneration of robotic technology and ABB’s smallest robot ever produced. Ideal for material handling and assembly applications, the new IRB 120 robot provides an agile, compact and lightweight solution with superior control and path accuracy. Compact and lightweight As the smallest robot from ABB, the IRB 120 offers all the functionality and expertise of the ABB range in a much smaller package. Its reduced weight of only 25 kg and compact design enables it to be mounted virtually anywhere, whether it is inside a cell, on top of a machine or close to other robots on the production line. Multipurpose Ideal for a wide range of industries including the electronic, food and beverage, machinery, solar, pharmaceutical, medical and research sectors, the IRB 120 joins ABB’s fourth-generation of new robotic technology. A white finish Clean Room ISO class 5 version enhances this versatility by making it suitable for environment with stringent cleanliness standard. Food Grade Lubrication This Food Grade Lubrication (NSF H1) option includes Clean Room ISO Class 5 which ensure uncompromising safety and hygiene for food and beverage applications. The Clean Room ISO 5 design eliminates the potential for contamination of the food handling area. This option provides smooth surfaces and special paint for easier cleaning. Easy to integrate Weighing in at only 25kg, this robot arm is truly the most portable and easy to integrate on the market. It can be mounted at any angle without any restriction. The smooth surfaces are easy to clean and the cables for air and customer signals are internally routed, all the way from the foot to the wrist, ensuring that integration is effortless. Optimized working range In addition to a horizontal reach of 580 mm, the robot has best in class stroke and the ability to reach 112 mm below its base. Furthermore, the IRB 120 has a very compact turning radius, which is enabled by the robots symmetric architecture, without offset on axis 2. This ensures the robot can be mounted close to other equipment and the slim wrist enables the arm to reach closer to its application. Fast, accurate and agile Designed with a light, aluminum structure, the powerful compact motors ensure the robot is enabled with a fast acceleration, and can deliver accuracy and agility in any application. Using the IRB 120T variant, cycletimes can be reduced up to 25% where the work piece needs extensive re-orientation and axis 4, 5 and 6 are predominantly used. This faster versions is well suited for pick and packing applications and guided operations together with PickMaster 3™. IRC5 Compact controller – optimised for small robots ABB’s new IRC5 Compact controller takes the capabilities of the extremely powerful IRC5 controller and presents them in a truly compact format. The new Compact controller brings accuracy and motion control to applications, which previously had been exclusive to large installations. In addition to space saving benefits, the new controller also enables easy commissioning through one phase power input, external connectors for all signals and a built-in expandable 16 in, 16 o
