ABB Robotics

ABB Robotics is the industrial robotics business of ABB Group, headquartered in Västerås, Sweden. It provides robots, robotic systems, automation software and related services to manufacturers and other industrial customers. The business traces its robotics development to the introduction of a microprocessor-controlled industrial robot in 1974 and has since developed a portfolio covering industrial robots, collaborative robots, robot controllers and digital tools for production management. Typical applications include assembly, material handling, welding, packaging, painting and production-line automation. ABB Robotics is positioned around industrial automation expertise, global service capabilities and solutions integrated into customers' manufacturing processes. As a business unit of ABB Group rather than a separately listed company, its operations and financial information are generally reported within ABB Group disclosures.

ABB Robotics developed as part of ABB Group's industrial automation activities. A major milestone was the introduction of a microprocessor-controlled industrial robot in 1974, supporting programmable control and wider automation in industrial production. The business subsequently expanded beyond individual robot hardware to include robot controllers, software, integrated workstations and services. Its applications have included material handling, assembly, welding, packaging and painting. As manufacturers have placed greater emphasis on flexible production, connectivity and human-robot collaboration, ABB Robotics has broadened its offering toward complete robotic cells, production-line automation and digital management tools. The brand continues to operate as an ABB Group business rather than as a separately listed company, and its financial performance is generally included in ABB Group reporting.
