Sell Your Used ABB Robot
ABB robots run in everything from automotive body shops to electronics assembly floors, and the used market for them is active: integrators, contract manufacturers, and plants expanding capacity all look for ABB arms with documented history rather than paying new-equipment prices and lead times.
RobotsTrader.com is a classified marketplace dedicated to used robots. Your ABB listing reaches buyers searching by brand, model, and payload class. Your first listing is free for 30 days, fees after that are flat and one-time, and there is never a commission on what your robot sells for.
ABB models buyers look for
The IRB 6700 is the heavy end of the range — the successor to the widely installed IRB 6700-class foundry and press-tending robots — and well-kept examples attract serious interest. The IRB 4600 is a versatile mid-size arm used across arc welding, machine tending, and material handling. The compact IRB 1200 fits small parts handling, assembly, and machine tending in tight footprints. At the collaborative end, YuMi (IRB 14000) dual-arm robots come out of electronics and small-parts assembly, and listings do well when the grippers, vision setup, and gripper configuration are described precisely.
Across the range, ABB buyers ask about the controller — IRC5 versus the newer OmniCore — the RobotWare version, and whether options like SafeMove are licensed. Note what is included: dress packs, welding packages, and external axes all change what a listing is worth to the buyer who needs them.
