ABB Robotics is building OmniCore into a robot control architecture

ABB launched OmniCore on June 4, 2024 after a $170 million investment in the robot control platform, with reported path accuracy below 0.6 mm.

ABB Robotics launched OmniCore in Zurich on June 4, 2024. The controller platform came from more than $170 million of investment and consolidates robot motion, sensors, and application equipment under one control architecture.

ABB says OmniCore delivers robot path accuracy below 0.6 millimeters and robot speeds up to 1,600 millimeters per second. It also claims robots can operate up to 25 percent faster and use up to 20 percent less energy than the previous ABB controller.

ABB Robotics sits inside ABB’s global automation business, with a large installed base across automotive, electronics, logistics, and general industry.
