1 Description
1.1 Structure
1.1.1 Introduction
Robot family
The IRB 6660 is one of ABB Robotics generation of high payload, high performance
industrial robots.
Based on the famous IRB 6600 robot family, the very high wrist torque, the service
friendly modular built up and the very high availability, significant for ABB’s robots,
the IRB 6660 robot family goes even further, towards the excellence as a flexible
tooling in automatic manufacturing.
With a focus on the very high robot performance, simple service and low
maintenance cost, the IRB 6660-130/3.1 and IRB 6660-100/3.3 are the most
profitable alternatives in automation of Press Tending applications and IRB
6660-205/1.9 is adapted for Pre-machining and cleaning of aluminium castings.
Software product range
We have added a range of software products - all falling under the umbrella
designation of Active Safety - to protect not only personnel in the unlikely event
of an accident, but also robot tools, peripheral equipment and the robot itself.
Operating system
The robot is equipped with the OmniCore controller and robot control software,
RobotWare. RobotWare supports every aspect of the robot system, such as motion
control, development and execution of application programs, communication etc.
See Product specification - OmniCore V line.
The IRB 6660 manipulator can be connected to the following robot controllers:
• OmniCore V250XT
• OmniCore V400XT
Safety
Safety standards valid for complete robot, manipulator and controller.
Additional functionality
For additional functionality, the robot can be equipped with optional software for
application support - for example gluing and welding, communication features -
network communication - and advanced functions such as multitasking, sensor
control etc. For a complete description on optional software, see Product
specification - OmniCore V line.

1 Description
1.1.1 Introduction

Protection type Foundry Plus 2
Robots with the option Foundry Plus 2 are designed for harsh environments where
the robot is exposed to sprays of coolants, lubricants and metal spits that are
typical for die casting applications or other similar applications.
Typical applications are spraying insertion and part extraction of die-casting
machines, handling in sand casting and gravity casting, etc. (Please refer to Foundry
Prime robots for washing applications or other similar applications). Special care
must be taken in regard to operational and maintenance requirements for
applications in foundry are as well as in other applications areas. Please contact
ABB Robotics Sales organization if in doubt regarding specific application feasibility
for the Foundry Plus 2 protected robot.
The robot is painted with two-component epoxy on top of a primer for corrosion
protection. To further improve the corrosion protection additional rust preventive
are applied to exposed and crucial areas, e.g. has the tool flange a special
preventive coating. Although, continuous splashing of water or other similar rust
formation fluids may cause rust attach on the robots unpainted areas, joints, or
other unprotected surfaces. Under these circumstances it is recommended to add
rust inhibitor to the fluid or take other measures to prevent potential rust formation
on the mentioned.
The entire robot is IP67 compliant according to IEC 60529 - from base to wrist,
which means that the electrical compartments are sealed against water and solid
contaminants. Among other things all sensitive parts are better protected than the
standard offer.
Selected Foundry Plus 2 features:
• Improved sealing to prevent penetration into cavities to secure IP67
• Additional protection of cabling and electronics
• Special covers that protect cavities
• Well-proven connectors
• Nickel coated tool flange
• Rust preventives on screws, washers and unpainted/machined surfaces
• Extended service and maintenance program
The Foundry Plus 2 robot can be cleaned with appropriate washing equipment
according to the robot product manual. Appropriate cleaning and maintenance is
required to maintain the protection, for example can rust preventive be washed off
with wrong cleaning method.
Available robot variants
The option Foundry Plus 2 might not be available for all robot variants.
See Variants and options on page 61 for robot versions and other options not
selectable together with Foundry Plus 2.

1.3 Installation
1.3.1 Introduction
General
The IRB 6660 should be mounted on to the floor (no tilting allowed around X-axis
or Y-axis). A tool or an end effector with max. weight of 100, 130 or 205 kg including
payload, can be mounted on the robot tool flange (axis 6). SeeLoad diagrams on
page 32.
Extra loads
For IRB 6660-130/3.1 and IRB 6660-100/3.3 can an extra load of 20 kg be mounted
on to the upper arm, at a payload of maximum 130 or 100 kg, for IRB 6660-205/1.9
can an extra load of 15 kg be mounted on to the upper arm, at a payload of
maximum 205 kg. An extra load of 500 kg can also be mounted on to the frame.
See Mounting of equipment on page 42.
Working range limitation
The working range of axis 1 can be limited by mechanical stops as options.
