ABB IRB 660 and IRB 4400 Flat Pack Furniture Packaging Case Study

Svedplan, a Scandinavian flat pack furniture producer, deployed eight ABB robots (IRB 660 and IRB 4400 models) to automate packaging, increasing production by 45% with a payback period of two to three years. The robotic system, designed by Teamster AB, replaced manual packing lines, improved worker safety, and preserved jobs while enabling flexible product handling through vision system software.
