Head to head
ABB IRB 910SC vs Staubli TS40
A specification duel across payload, reach, precision, and footprint, with a plain read on which arm suits which job.
Compact SCARA for assembly and small-parts handling
Clean SCARA for precision assembly and packaging
Specification duel
Green marks the stronger figure. Unconfirmed specs are shown but not scored.
The verdict
The specs separate them here: the Staubli TS40 carries more, 8 kg to the ABB IRB 910SC's 6 kg, and the ABB IRB 910SC reaches farther, 650 mm to 400 mm. They run different controllers, the ABB IRB 910SC on the IRC5 and the Staubli TS40 on the CS8C, so whichever platform your team already programs and stocks parts for is a real tiebreaker. For a tight or overhead cell, the Staubli TS40 lists Wall mounting, which the other does not. Both are aimed at assembly and packaging, with the ABB IRB 910SC stretching to machine tending.
