Robot ABB IRB2400 robot with IRC5 controller
The universal ABB IRB2400 is the world’s most popular industrial robot. Its main applications are arc welding, cutting/deburring, glueing/sealing, grinding/polishing, machine tending and material handling. It comes with the latest ABB IRC5 controller.
Robot parameters:- Reach: 1,55m
- Payload: 20kg
- Position repeatability: ±0.03mm
- Number of axes: 6
- Weight: 380kg
- Working mode: manual/ automatic/ semi-automatic
- Systems: Motion Supervision, World Zones, Path Recovery, Multitasking, Flexspendant Interface, PC Interface
IRB 2400 gives excellent performance in material handling, machine tending and process applications where the required accuracies are necessary while keeping the position repeatability at 0.03mm despite large additional load. Thanks to its robust construction and IP54 classification it can work in harsh production environment.
Robotic workstation is equipped with:
- digital I/O,
- DeviceNet Master / Slave card,
- Profinet IO Slave and Profibus communication modules,
- systems: Motion Supervision, World Zones, Path Recovery, Multitasking, Flexpendant Interface, PC Interface, Integrated Vision.

Software systems - overview
- World Zones Controller software that enables creating, e.g. a cubic zone and in case the robot leaves the zone it will generate the signal, e.g. on the IO card. Software useful for defining the so called home position.
- Path Recovery Controller software that enables recovering the path in case of error. In case specific error occurs (e.g. arc time) the robot stops operation for the time of eliminating the error, and then resumes the work where it stopped.
- Multitasking Controller software that enables launching multiple tasks – so called multi-threading. For example, one of the tasks controls robot’s motion while the other, independent task controls IO cards acting like simple PLC.
- Flexpendant Interface A function of creating graphic operator screens on the FlexPendant screen.
- SoftMove Controller software that enables defining static and dynamic robot stiffness – a robot may react like a spring or yield to external forces.
- PC Interface Software – controller’s option that enables communication via ETHERNET, for example with a PC. An option useful for integrating the robot with vision systems.
- Medium res. Camera + a selected lens (8 mm, 12 mm, 16 mm, 24 mm) Insight 7200 camera by Cognex.
- Vision interface A camera system is based on Cognex In-Sight® series 7000, but it is also possible to connect any CognexIn-Sight® camera. The camera requires 24 VDC power supply. A set of cameras features IP67 protection, M12 lens with autofocus and build-in flash. Up to 3 cameras may be simultaneously connected to the Ethernet switch.
Catering
The essential elements of the training courses organized by EMT-Systems are content, well-qualified trainers and modern equipment. However, as the Engineering Training Center we also pay attention to the highest quality of catering services.
Each day of the course the participants receive:- Unlimited access to our EMT Coffi Di‘Italian Espresso Bar. During short breaks in classes our students may use the fully stocked coffee bar:
- THERMOPLAN BW 4 – a professional Swiss coffee machine used in best cafes. You may choose the coffee you like best - Cappuccino, Espresso, Americano, Caffe Latte and Turkish Coffee.
- Traditional vending machine serving different types of coffees and hot beverages such as tea, hot chocolate or borscht.
- A selection of kettles, coffees and teas for self service.
- Sparkling and still mineral water, squash.
- A selection of cookies and fruit.
- A two-course lunch - the cuisine offered by two nearby diners is a combination of traditional, home-made flavors known from modern dairy bars with meals served in restaurants.
The highlight is the aroma of freshly ground coffee!
