OVERVIEW

ABB IRB 1100 is a compact high-speed six-axis industrial robot designed for small-parts production, electronics, assembly, testing, machine loading, screwdriving, and surface-finishing tasks.

It is available with a 4 kg payload and either 475 mm or 580 mm reach, combining a small footprint, fast motion, multiple mounting orientations, cleanroom options, and ABB’s OmniCore control platform.

IRB 1100 is strongest where cycle time, precision, density, and industrial reliability matter more than collaborative hand-guided operation.

Its small footprint, speed, and mounting flexibility make IRB 1100 particularly effective in dense production layouts with short cycles and lightweight precision tasks.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

How much does the ABB IRB 1100 cost? +

The ABB IRB 1100 price is normally available by project quote rather than as one fixed global list price. The final cost can depend on robot configuration, controller or charging hardware, software, accessories, integration, installation, training, shipping, taxes, warranty and regional support. ABB sells IRB 1100 through configured quotations because controller, variant, protection, tooling, safety and integration determine the final system cost.

This is why two proposals for the same robot can have very different totals: one may cover only the base hardware, while another includes the controller, tooling, software, commissioning, training, travel, safety work and ongoing support. For a serious buyer, the better comparison is the total delivered and deployed cost for the exact application.

You can request a ABB IRB 1100 quote through Anton Robots to compare the robot package, delivery assumptions, integration scope, warranty and support before purchasing. The final decision should be supported by a written specification and, where practical, a demonstration with representative parts, users or site conditions. Marketing material is useful for discovery but does not replace a task-specific acceptance test.

Where can I buy the ABB IRB 1100? +

You can buy, order or request the ABB IRB 1100 through Anton Robots. We help buyers check the correct commercial route, compare the available package, understand what is included and decide whether the robot fits the intended application. IRB 1100 is a current ABB industrial robot available through ABB and authorised automation partners. Before ordering, confirm the 4/0.475 or 4/0.58 variant, OmniCore controller, mounting orientation, protection or cleanroom option, end effector, vision, fixtures, safety cell, cycle requirement and local service.

This matters because the same model name can refer to different controllers, software licences, service plans, regional configurations, accessories or integration scopes. For businesses, universities, construction teams, laboratories or specialist buyers, choosing the correct supported package is more important than finding the lowest isolated price.

To start, request an ABB IRB 1100 quote or buying review through Anton Robots and compare price, configuration, availability, delivery and after-sales support.

Where can I find a ABB IRB 1100 for sale? +

You can find the ABB IRB 1100 for sale through the manufacturer, authorised commercial channels and specialist robot marketplaces such as Anton Robots, subject to region and configuration. Finding a listing is only the first step. The important part is verifying the exact model, package and support scope. A lower advertised amount may exclude controller options, gripper or process tool, vision, guarding, fixtures, software, integration, training, freight, taxes and maintenance.

Professional buyers should compare the total delivered and usable system, including the 4/0.475 or 4/0.58 variant, OmniCore controller, mounting orientation, protection or cleanroom option, end effector, vision, fixtures, safety cell, cycle requirement and local service. This is especially important when the robot must meet a launch date, site requirement, research protocol or production target.

If you are looking for an ABB IRB 1100 for sale, contact Anton Robots before ordering so the commercial status, configuration and support can be checked.

Can I get a quote for the ABB IRB 1100? +

Yes. You can request a quote or buying review for the ABB IRB 1100 through Anton Robots. A useful quote should show more than the robot name. It should identify the IRB 1100 variant, OmniCore controller, cables, software, mounting, tooling, vision, guarding, integration, training, delivery, warranty and service.

This matters because a proposal that looks cheaper can become more expensive once omitted hardware, subscriptions, integration, freight, duties, installation or support are added. The quote should also state what the buyer must provide, the expected delivery process and any regional restrictions.

Anton Robots can help compare the ABB IRB 1100 with other robotic arms and structure the enquiry around the actual use case rather than a generic price request. Anton Robots should capture transactional search intent while keeping the route accurate: compare the supported configuration, request a detailed quote and confirm the seller responsible for delivery, commissioning, warranty and technical support.

What is included when you buy the ABB IRB 1100? +

A typical ABB IRB 1100 package may include the core robot and the items specified by the selected commercial configuration. The exact delivery can vary by country, application, service plan and supplier, so buyers should request a written packing and scope list. Confirm whether the offer includes:

  • Robot platform in the quoted configuration
  • Controller, charger or docking equipment
  • Required software and licences
  • Application-specific accessories or tooling
  • Integration and site-preparation scope
  • Commissioning, training and safety documentation
  • Freight, warranty and after-sales support

The package should also identify anything supplied by the customer, such as networking, site power, mounting, tooling, safety equipment, floor preparation or ongoing subscription fees. This matters because two offers can use the same product name while covering very different levels of readiness. You can request an itemised ABB IRB 1100 package through Anton Robots before buying.

For international projects, include currency, taxes, customs, freight, local certification, installation travel and return logistics. A low base price can become a poor offer when the complete supported deployment is calculated.

Can the ABB IRB 1100 be shipped internationally? +

The ABB IRB 1100 may be available for international delivery, but this depends on the manufacturer’s sales territory, destination, export rules, freight method, batteries, local certification, installation needs and support coverage. Professional robots can require specialist freight, insurance, customs handling, site access planning and local commissioning.

Before ordering, ask whether the price includes freight, insurance, customs clearance, import duties, VAT or GST, local delivery, commissioning and return shipping for warranty work. For larger industrial robots, site access, lifting equipment, transport frames and engineer travel may also matter. You can request an international ABB IRB 1100 review through Anton Robots so regional availability and the full landed package can be checked.

For international projects, include currency, taxes, customs, freight, local certification, installation travel and return logistics. A low base price can become a poor offer when the complete supported deployment is calculated. Compare the ABB IRB 1100 against at least one alternative using the same payload, workspace, duty cycle, software, safety, service and landed-cost assumptions. A technically suitable robot can still be the wrong purchase when integration or regional support is weak.

Is the ABB IRB 1100 in stock and how long does delivery take? +

ABB IRB 1100 availability and delivery time can change according to region, production schedule, configuration, stock, project approval and the amount of customisation or integration required. A product page or demonstration does not confirm immediate regional inventory; configuration and project approval can affect lead time.

Do not assume immediate delivery because a product page or enquiry button is visible. A supplier should confirm the exact model, commercial status, estimated production or dispatch window, dependencies, payment milestones and what happens if the schedule changes.

If the robot is needed for a construction phase, course, exhibition, research project or production launch, verify availability before committing to the wider project. You can request current ABB IRB 1100 availability through Anton Robots. Before approving an order, document the exact ABB IRB 1100 revision, intended task, destination, users, integrations, acceptance test and support owner. This allows Anton Robots to match the enquiry with a supplier that can deliver a complete working package rather than isolated hardware.

What warranty and support should I check before buying the ABB IRB 1100? +

Before buying the ABB IRB 1100, confirm the written warranty period, covered components, exclusions, preventive maintenance, repair location, response process, spare parts, software support and who pays freight or engineer travel. Confirm software updates, spare parts, batteries, preventive maintenance, response times and the authorised service route in the destination country. Also ask whether batteries, wear parts, end effectors, subscriptions, third-party software and customer modifications are covered.

Industrial and social robots can require remote diagnostics, operator training and specialist service, so support should be evaluated as part of the purchase rather than after a fault occurs. Anton Robots can help buyers compare the package and identify unanswered warranty questions before ordering.

Compare the ABB IRB 1100 against at least one alternative using the same payload, workspace, duty cycle, software, safety, service and landed-cost assumptions. A technically suitable robot can still be the wrong purchase when integration or regional support is weak.

Is the ABB IRB 1100 worth buying? +

The ABB IRB 1100 is worth considering if you need fast reliable automation of small parts in a compact safeguarded industrial cell. Its small footprint, two reach options and ABB control ecosystem support dense production and short cycle times.

However, it is not the right choice if the task requires collaborative hand guidance, payload above 4 kg, long reach or a flexible low-volume process better suited to a cobot. The decision should be based on the intended outcome, current commercial status, full ownership cost, operator skills, environment, integration and support. Buyers should not choose it only because the robot is famous, visually impressive or appears in demonstration videos.

Compare the ABB IRB 1100 with other robotic arms through Anton Robots before deciding. Anton Robots should capture transactional search intent while keeping the route accurate: compare the supported configuration, request a detailed quote and confirm the seller responsible for delivery, commissioning, warranty and technical support.

What are the payload and reach options of ABB IRB 1100? +

ABB IRB 1100 has a 4 kg payload and is offered in two main reach variants: approximately 475 mm and 580 mm. The correct choice depends on the fixture, machine access, tool length and desired robot posture. Payload must include the complete end effector and workpiece. A compact screwdriver or gripper may leave most of the capacity for the part, while a heavier polishing spindle can consume it quickly. The integrator should model the full path and cycle time in RobotStudio, checking singularities, cable routing and clearance.

If the application needs more than 4 kg or substantially longer reach, another ABB model should be selected. Anton Robots should capture transactional search intent while keeping the route accurate: compare the supported configuration, request a detailed quote and confirm the seller responsible for delivery, commissioning, warranty and technical support.

Define who owns software changes, backups, data, maintenance records and operator training after handover. These operational details often determine whether the ABB IRB 1100 remains useful after the initial demonstration or installation.

Is ABB IRB 1100 a collaborative robot? +

No. IRB 1100 is a compact high-speed industrial robot, not a power-and-force-limited cobot designed for routine hand-guided operation beside people. Its speed and productivity are advantages inside a properly engineered cell. The application normally requires guarding, interlocks, scanners or other safeguards based on the risk assessment. ABB safety technologies can support advanced cell designs, but they do not automatically make the arm collaborative.

Buyers who need frequent direct human interaction should compare ABB collaborative robots such as GoFa or YuMi. Buyers who prioritise compactness and cycle time may prefer IRB 1100 with an appropriate industrial safety system. Anton Robots should capture transactional search intent while keeping the route accurate: compare the supported configuration, request a detailed quote and confirm the seller responsible for delivery, commissioning, warranty and technical support.

For international projects, include currency, taxes, customs, freight, local certification, installation travel and return logistics. A low base price can become a poor offer when the complete supported deployment is calculated.

What applications suit ABB IRB 1100? +

ABB positions IRB 1100 for assembly, testing, loading and unloading, screwdriving, rubber insertion and surface-finishing operations such as polishing, grinding, buffing, deburring and sanding. Its compact size also suits electronics, food and beverage, logistics, metal fabrication and other small-parts industries. The robot arm must be paired with the correct tool, fixtures, process equipment, guarding and controls. Process tasks may require dust extraction, force control or tool compliance.

Machine loading requires door and machine interfaces. A successful project begins with representative parts, target cycle time and acceptance criteria rather than selecting the robot from a broad application label. Define who owns software changes, backups, data, maintenance records and operator training after handover. These operational details often determine whether the ABB IRB 1100 remains useful after the initial demonstration or installation.

Before approving an order, document the exact ABB IRB 1100 revision, intended task, destination, users, integrations, acceptance test and support owner. This allows Anton Robots to match the enquiry with a supplier that can deliver a complete working package rather than isolated hardware.

How fast and accurate is ABB IRB 1100? +

IRB 1100 is designed as a high-speed compact robot, but the useful cycle time depends on the variant, path, payload, orientation, tool inertia and process dwell. ABB highlights improved productivity and dense installation rather than one universal cycles-per-minute figure for every task.

Accuracy should also be separated from repeatability and process capability. The project should use RobotStudio simulation and a real-part trial to validate cycle time, positions and quality. Fixtures, calibration, vision and tool compliance can matter as much as the robot. The quotation should state the target cycle and acceptance test so the system is evaluated against the buyer’s process.

Before approving an order, document the exact ABB IRB 1100 revision, intended task, destination, users, integrations, acceptance test and support owner. This allows Anton Robots to match the enquiry with a supplier that can deliver a complete working package rather than isolated hardware. The final decision should be supported by a written specification and, where practical, a demonstration with representative parts, users or site conditions. Marketing material is useful for discovery but does not replace a task-specific acceptance test.

Can ABB IRB 1100 be mounted on a wall or ceiling? +

ABB’s compact robots support flexible installation options, subject to the selected variant and controller configuration. Wall, tilted or inverted mounting can save floor space and improve access to machines or conveyors. The mounting structure must be rigid and designed for dynamic loads, while cables, service access and joint clearance must be planned.

The orientation can change the usable workspace and cycle time, so it should be simulated before fabrication. Ask the integrator to specify the approved mounting orientation, base plate, fasteners, structural requirements and cable routing. A compact robot only saves space when the full cell remains maintainable and safe.

Compare the ABB IRB 1100 against at least one alternative using the same payload, workspace, duty cycle, software, safety, service and landed-cost assumptions. A technically suitable robot can still be the wrong purchase when integration or regional support is weak. Anton Robots should capture transactional search intent while keeping the route accurate: compare the supported configuration, request a detailed quote and confirm the seller responsible for delivery, commissioning, warranty and technical support.

Is there a cleanroom version of ABB IRB 1100? +

Yes. ABB offers a Cleanroom version of IRB 1100 and states an ISO Class 4 classification for environments that require very low particulate contamination.

Buyers should confirm the exact cleanroom variant, allowable lubricants, cables, controller location and compatibility of the gripper, tool, dress pack and fixtures. The complete robot cell must meet the cleanroom requirement; installing a cleanroom arm with unsuitable tooling or cable materials can compromise the result. Electronics, pharmaceutical and precision-manufacturing projects should define the applicable standard, validation procedure, cleaning method and documentation in the quotation.

Compare the ABB IRB 1100 against at least one alternative using the same payload, workspace, duty cycle, software, safety, service and landed-cost assumptions. A technically suitable robot can still be the wrong purchase when integration or regional support is weak. Anton Robots should capture transactional search intent while keeping the route accurate: compare the supported configuration, request a detailed quote and confirm the seller responsible for delivery, commissioning, warranty and technical support.

What should be included in an ABB IRB 1100 quote? +

The quote should identify the 4/0.475 or 4/0.58 arm, OmniCore controller, cables, mounting orientation, protection or cleanroom option, RobotStudio and software functions, end effector, vision, fixtures, process equipment and safety system. It should include target cycle time, payload and inertia, installation, programming, validation, training, delivery, warranty, maintenance and spare-parts support.

For finishing applications, add extraction and process control. For electronics, add ESD or cleanroom requirements. Anton Robots should compare the complete production cell and acceptance criteria rather than only the base robot arm.

The final decision should be supported by a written specification and, where practical, a demonstration with representative parts, users or site conditions. Marketing material is useful for discovery but does not replace a task-specific acceptance test. Define who owns software changes, backups, data, maintenance records and operator training after handover. These operational details often determine whether the ABB IRB 1100 remains useful after the initial demonstration or installation.
