ABB 3HAC048228-001 Reduction Gear – IRB6700 Series Industrial Robot Gearbox
When a reduction gear fails on an ABB IRB6700 robot, the entire production line stops. Axis positioning becomes erratic, repeatability collapses, and in severe cases the robot arm can no longer hold its load safely. Every hour of unplanned downtime in an automotive body shop or heavy-parts assembly cell can cost tens of thousands of dollars. The ABB 3HAC048228-001 Reduction Gear (also referenced as 3HAC043071-003, assembly part number IRB67003HAC048228-001) is the OEM-specified gearbox unit that restores full axis integrity and gets your robot back to rated performance.
Within the IRB6700 family — ABB’s flagship heavy-duty industrial robot rated for 150–300 kg payloads — this reduction gear occupies a critical axis position, delivering the precise torque multiplication and zero-backlash motion that define the IRB6700’s ±0.05 mm repeatability. The IRB6700 platform is deployed across automotive, foundry, logistics, and heavy fabrication industries worldwide, making 3HAC048228-001 one of the most strategically important spare parts in global robot maintenance inventories.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is the difference between 3HAC048228-001 and 3HAC043071-003?
A: These are cross-reference part numbers for the same reduction gear unit used in the ABB IRB6700 series. Different BOM revisions or documentation versions may reference either number. Both refer to the same physical component.
Q: Is this a genuine ABB part?
A: We supply parts sourced through verified industrial channels. Please contact us to confirm the specific sourcing and condition (new OEM, surplus, or refurbished) available for your order.
Q: Which axis of the IRB6700 does this reduction gear serve?
A: Axis assignment can vary by robot configuration. Please provide your robot’s serial number and we will confirm the exact axis and fitment details.
Q: What is the lead time for 3HAC048228-001?
A: Lead time depends on current stock levels. Submit an inquiry and we will confirm availability and estimated delivery within 1 business day.
Q: Do you provide installation support?
A: We provide technical documentation and can connect you with qualified ABB service partners. Contact us for details.
Q: Can you supply multiple units for a production facility?
A: Yes. We handle both single-unit emergency orders and bulk procurement for MRO inventory programs. Volume pricing is available.
