• Slim, fast, six-axis AR1440 welding
robot achieves unrivaled welding
performance and productivity.
• Axis composite speed increased by
11% over previous model.
• 12 kg payload supports a wide
variety of motorized torches and
sensors.
• Slim profile design allows close
proximity placement of robots for
high-density workcells.
• Contoured arm allows easy access
to parts in tight spots and avoids
potential interference with fixtures.
• Symmetric wrist profile, with ample
range, provides equal torch access
to both sides of part.
• High allowable moment and inertia
ratings provide wrist rigidity and
consistent weld quality.
• 50 mm thru-hole for torch cabling,
hoses and sensor wires reduces
cable interference and wear.
• Minimal U-axis cable protrusion and
S-axis internal cable management
prolongs cable life and maximizes
part access.
• Optimized feeder mounting
area on arm reduces equipment
interference.
• Single power and control cable
reduces wiring time and increases
work efficiency.
• New robot harness design
for improved diagnostics and
maintenance.
• Home position data can be saved
without battery connection for easy
maintenance.
• Variety of advanced, exclusive
programming functions maximize
weld quality and speed.
• Floor-mounted model is standard.
Wall- or ceiling-mounted versions
are available.
• Compact YRC controller utilizes the
lightweight standard teach pendant
with intuitive programing.
