Used ABB Delta

Overview

Delta robots are parallel-arm industrial robots built for very fast, precise pick-and-place and high-speed assembly tasks. Their lightweight arms and triangular kinematic layout give excellent cycle rates, low moving inertia and a small footprint, making them common in packaging, food, electronics and pharmaceutical lines. They excel on repetitive, high-throughput work with limited payloads and require precise integration with conveyors, vision systems and end-effectors.

FAQ

What should I check when buying a used Delta robot?

Verify cycle history, accuracy and repeatability records, motor and encoder condition, control system model and firmware, maintenance logs, and end-effector compatibility. Ask for a live demo or video of the robot running typical cycles.

How does buying a Delta robot differ from a crawler loader?

Delta robots focus on speed, precision and clean-line integration rather than heavy lifting or rough terrain. You’ll prioritize controller compatibility, end-effector tooling, vision and mounting options rather than tracks, hydraulic systems, or ground clearance.

How should a Delta robot be shipped safely?

Ship with a manufacturer-grade crate, secure joints and arms, remove or lock delicate end-effectors, pack electronic controllers separately with anti-static protection, and insure against shock. Use carriers experienced with automation equipment and request vibration/shock reports if possible.

What maintenance does a Delta robot need?

Regular checks include belt or joint wear, encoder function, lubrication of pivots if applicable, controller firmware updates, calibration and vision system alignment. Replace consumables on schedule and keep spare motors, belts and encoders on hand for quick repairs.
