ABB PoWa High-Speed Collaborative Robots
PoWa is a high-speed collaborative-robot family launched by ABB in 2026. It comprises six models with 7–30 kg payloads and delivers class-leading speed of up to 5.8 m/s at rated load, with ±0.03 mm repeatability. Built on the ABB OmniCore control platform, it packages industrial-grade performance into a collaborative-robot form, making it well suited to heavy, fast process automation such as high-speed machine tending, palletizing, screwdriving, and arc welding.
