ABB Process Automation Division Cobots GoFa 12

The ABB GoFa 12 is a powerful and precise industrial robot designed for a range of automation applications. With a payload capacity of 12 kilograms, it offers the capability to handle heavier objects and perform tasks that require a higher payload capacity. The robot's reach of 1.4 meters allows it to access workstations or objects within a significant distance, providing flexibility in various industrial settings. One standout feature of the GoFa 12 is its IP67 protection rating. This makes it dust-tight and capable of withstanding temporary immersion in water. The IP67 rating is particularly advantageous for machine tending in oily environments, as it ensures the robot's reliable operation in such conditions. This unique specification allows the GoFa 12 to work effectively in industrial settings where oil or other lubricants are present, reducing the risk of damage or performance degradation. The GoFa 12 offers exceptional repeatability, with a precision of 0.02 millimeters. This level of accuracy ensures consistent and precise movements, making it ideal for applications that require high precision, such as machine tending, welding, or polishing. The robot's repeatability ensures that it can consistently perform tasks with utmost accuracy, improving overall productivity and quality in industrial automation processes. In terms of speed, the GoFa 12 stands out with a Tool Center Speed of up to 2 meters per second. This higher speed capability is particularly notable given its heavier payload capacity. The combination of speed and payload capacity allows the robot to carry out tasks efficiently, reducing cycle times and increasing production throughput in applications such as machine tending, palletizing, welding, and sanding/polishing.
