Welcoming ABB Robotics to the Vention ecosystem

 By Quinn Harker

Vention is excited to announce that ABB has joined the Vention ecosystem! Now available on Vention.com, explore the full ABB GoFa CRB15000 Series. These collaborative robots (cobots) are not only available to purchase but also fully compatible with the Vention Manufacturing Automation Platform (MAP), so you can easily integrate them into your next automation project.

How the addition of ABB Robotics benefits you

With ABB joining other leading robotics brands in the Vention ecosystem, such as Universal Robots and FANUC, they are one step closer to achieving a fully robotic-agnostic platform. This means that no matter which robot you are working with, you can always stay in the same environment to design, simulate, deploy, and operate automated equipment and robot cells. This eliminates the need to learn multiple new interfaces, processes, and environments. 

Next time you’re ready to start a project, just add an ABB robot arm to your MachineBuilder design, program it with no-code or Python in MachineLogic, simulate it with a near-accurate digital twin, deploy it in just one click, and continually analyze its performance via remote monitoring. The result? Your next project will be implemented with a more streamlined process that has fewer complexities and is completed in a fraction of the time.

About the ABB GoFa CRB 15000 Series

The ABB GoFa CRB15000 series provides manufacturers with proven cobots whose payloads range from 5 kg to 12 kg. Renowned for their safety, ease of use, and performance, ABB GoFa cobots are designed to work alongside humans in various applications, from assembly and welding to material handling and inspection. 

Watch the full announcement from Demo Day 2024

The collaboration was officially announced at Demo Day 2024, an annual event to introduce the year’s biggest innovations from the company. Watch the full video below to learn all the details from Rob Hernandez, Vention’s Director of Channel and Alliances, and Andrea Cassoni, ABB’s Global Head of Collaborative Robotics and Partnerships Development. 

ABB GoFa Cobots are available now on Vention.com and will be coming to the Vention Rapid Series line in 2025. They are looking forward to seeing what you’ll create with their combined power. Happy designing!
