Compatible Replacement & Equivalent Models
When the original 3HAC043569-004 is unavailable or cost-prohibitive, the following alternatives may be evaluated. Always verify mechanical fit, encoder protocol, and axis assignment before substitution.
- 3HAC043569-001 – Type A variant; verify pinion tooth count and shaft dimensions before use
- 3HAC043569-002 – Type B variant; confirm encoder compatibility with IRB4600 controller
- 3HAC043569-003 – Type C predecessor; check firmware revision requirements
- 3HAC17484-1 – Earlier IRB4600 motor generation; may require mechanical adapter
- Third-party equivalents – Must match torque rating, encoder resolution, and pinion module; consult Konmask engineering team for validation
Why Choose the Original Model
- OEM Precision: Manufactured to ABB’s exact torque, backlash, and encoder specifications for IRB4600 kinematics
- Plug-and-Play: No parameter re-tuning required when replacing like-for-like on IRC5 / OmniCore controllers
- Warranty Integrity: Maintains ABB robot warranty and service contract compliance
- Reduced Downtime: Eliminates compatibility validation time versus third-party alternatives
- Traceability: Full OEM serial number and batch traceability for regulated industries
Typical Applications
- Automotive body welding and assembly lines
- Palletizing and material handling (payload up to 45 kg)
- Machine tending and press-to-press transfer
- Arc welding and cutting cells
- Foundry and harsh-environment automation
System Compatibility
- Robot Platform: ABB IRB4600 (all reach/payload variants: 20/2.50, 40/2.55, 45/2.05, 60/2.05)
- Controller: IRC5 (M2004 and later), OmniCore C30/C90XT
- Drive Module: DSQC663 / DSQC668 axis computer compatible
- Software: RobotWare 5.x / 6.x
Selection Guide
Use the following decision framework to select the correct motor for your application:
- Step 1 – Identify the axis: Confirm which robot axis (J1–J6) requires replacement; Type C motors are typically assigned to specific mid-range axes
- Step 2 – Verify part number suffix: The suffix (-001 through -004) denotes motor type (A/B/C/D); do not substitute types without engineering review
- Step 3 – Check pinion module: Confirm pinion tooth count and module match the gearbox input gear on your specific IRB4600 variant
- Step 4 – Controller firmware: Ensure RobotWare version supports the motor’s encoder protocol
- Step 5 – Source validation: Request certificate of conformity and test report; Konmask provides full documentation on request

Replacement & Compatibility FAQ
Q: Can I use a Type A or Type B motor (3HAC043569-001/002) instead of the Type C (-004)?
A: Not directly. Each type suffix corresponds to a different mechanical and electrical configuration. Substitution requires engineering validation of pinion geometry, encoder type, and axis parameter files.
Q: Is this motor compatible with the IRB4400 or IRB6640?
A: No. The 3HAC043569-004 is designed specifically for the IRB4600 kinematic chain. Using it on other platforms may cause axis calibration errors or mechanical damage.
Q: Do you supply the motor with the gearbox?
A: The motor is supplied as a standalone unit with pinion. Matched gearbox assemblies are available separately — contact us for a complete axis kit quote.
Q: What is the lead time for a new OEM unit?
A: In-stock refurbished units ship within 1–3 business days. New OEM units typically require 2–4 weeks depending on ABB regional stock.
Q: Can Konmask provide a test report before shipment?
A: Yes. A pre-shipment test report and certificate of conformity are available on request at no additional charge.
