3HNM07686-1 3HNM07485-1- Ensure stable operation of robot systems, the “big heart” of industrial equipment!

The ABB 3HNM07686-1 is a precision-engineered Axis-2 Gearbox designed exclusively for ABB’s IRB 6600/6650 industrial robot series, delivering robust power transmission for high-payload material handling applications. This hardened gear unit converts servo motor torque into precise joint movement with minimal backlash, enabling repeatable positioning within ±0.05mm during demanding palletizing and machine tending cycles. The 3HNM07686-1 features helical gearing with proprietary surface hardening treatment (HRC 60+), ensuring 20,000+ hour service life under continuous 300kg payloads. Sealed with triple-lip radial shaft seals and filled with ABB’s synthetic ROBOLUBE gear oil, it withstands particulate contamination in foundry and machining environments. Preloaded tapered roller bearings eliminate axial play during rapid directional changes, while the integrated temperature sensor port enables predictive maintenance. For automotive, logistics, and heavy manufacturing applications requiring reliable motion transmission, this gearbox maintains kinematic accuracy through 10 million operational cycles.

Main Features and Advantages

Precision Gearing: Case-hardened helical gears with ground tooth profiles minimize vibration during acceleration/deceleration, critical for precision palletizing at 1.5m/s.

Extended Service Life: Carburized 20MnCr5 steel construction and anti-wear additive package in ROBOLUBE extend maintenance intervals to 24,000 operational hours.

Thermal Management: Integrated M12 temperature sensor port enables real-time monitoring through RobotWare, triggering alarms at 85°C to prevent overheating during overloads.

Contamination Defense: Labyrinth seals combined with radial shaft seals prevent ingress of welding spatter, grinding dust, or coolant in harsh environments.

Maintenance Optimization: Pre-adjusted bearing preload eliminates field recalibration. Grease purge ports allow in-situ lubrication without disassembly.

Application Field
