Pioneering a new era of high precision, compactness, and speed ABB launches the new-generation IRB 1200 robot, offering faster speed, higher precision, and more options ABB's high-performance new-generation IRB 1200 robot can improve productivity and efficiency in high-end process applications. With ABB's OmniCore™ controller, the new robot achieves industry-leading motion control capability, maintaining 0.03 mm path repeatability and 0.011 mm position repeatability even when multiple robots operate simultaneously at high speeds of 1600 mm/s. The new-generation IRB 1200 series offers four high-performance versions with payload capacities of 5 kg, 7 kg, 8 kg, and 9 kg, providing leading payload capacity in its class for handling larger or heavier parts. Excellent motion control and outstanding path repeatability of up to 0.03 mm Improved efficiency Weight is reduced by 20%, lowering installation costs and energy consumption Leading payload The new-generation IRB 1200 robot is available in four options, providing leading payload capacity for high-end applications High-end applications Optimized solutions for high-speed, high-precision application scenarios, suitable for assembly, polishing, adhesive application, and other fields ABB's high-performance small robot family, the IRB 1200, is upgrading its new-generation products with faster speed and higher precision to improve productivity and efficiency for a wide range of application scenarios. The cycle time of the new-generation IRB 1200 series is reduced
What we see on this model in the field
Small IRB arms (1010-1600 range) commonly need SMB battery board attention after storage — a dead battery loses mastering. We re-master and calibrate before delivery.
Buying or selling one?
If you're buying, demand the serial number and operating hours, then verify payload and reach against the official specs in the table above. If you're selling, we buy used ABB robots of all series — on-site appraisal, prompt settlement.
Frequently asked questions
QCan you repair a ABB IRB 1200 Next Generation?
Yes. Our engineers service the full ABB range including the IRB 1200 Next Generation — servo and gearbox overhaul, controller repair, mastering and calibration, with warranty on our work.
QDo you sell used ABB IRB 1200 Next Generation robots?
Stock changes weekly. Tell us the model and your application — if it's not in the warehouse we source it, inspect it against the official specs above, and commission it on-site.
QWhat should I check before buying this model used?
Demand the serial number and operating hours, verify payload/reach against the official table, and have the repeatability measured at working speed. Our inspection report covers gearbox backlash, controller logs and mastering data.
