High-speed press automation with TRX

With a production output rate of up to 16 parts per minute (spm) in tandem press lines, fast and flexible part transfer in a straight trajectory, the TRX is perfectly suited for the high speed press automation segment.

Main application:

  • Press automation

Key benefits

Productivity

The TRX from ABB is the fastest robot-based solution in the market for loading and unloading of presses, without the need for press modification.

Flexibility

It can be retrofitted to existing press lines, setting it apart from other systems which require additional space between the upright and bolster. The TRX can fit different crossbar types and lengths.

Adaptability

The TRX runs on the well-established StampWare platform. The proprietary software package from ABB is designed to facilitate interaction between operator and press cell. Available on the robot FlexPendant for maximum simplicity, flexibility, and cost effectiveness, StampWare includes a graphical programming wizard that helps operators easily program the robots.
