KUKA is one of the first companies in industrial robotics and automation technology, KUKA Robotics is one of the leading producer of robotic systems worldwide. KUKA has a unique and wide range of industrial robots and robot systems, covering all common payload categories and robot types. The matching controllers and software for a variety of scenarios round out KUKA’s product portfolio.
KUKA, together with its system partners covers a wide range of its customers’ applications – or can develop robotic systems for individual needs.
KUKA offers a wide range of services, including collaborative planning, start-up and maintenance to help its customers realize the full potential of KUKA products.

HIGH PAYLOADS (90 KG TO 300 KG)
KUKA robots from the high payload range are
particularly sought after for spot welding, handling and loading/unloading
tasks. Their long reach and great flexibility make them indispensable
partners.
HEAVY DUTY (300 KG TO 1300 KG)
KUKA robots from the high payload range are
particularly sought after for spot welding, handling and loading/unloading
tasks. Their long reach and great flexibility make them indispensable
partners.
LBR IIWA
LBR stands for "lightweight robot", iiwa for
"intelligent industrial work assistant”. The LBR iiwa redefines the
possibilities for industrial robotics. For the first time, human and robot
can work together on highly sensitive tasks in close cooperation. Safety
fences are dispensed with, new applications are opened up and the way is
paved for greater cost-effectiveness and utmost efficiency. The
collaborative, sensitive LBR iiwa is available in two types, with payloads
of seven and 14 kg.
LOW PAYLOADS (5 KG TO 16 KG)
KUKA robots with low payloads are particularly
suitable for small-scale activities such as component testing, assembly of
small parts, or grinding, polishing and bonding.
MEDIUM PAYLOADS (30 KG TO 60 KG)
Popular applications for medium payload robots range
from simple handling tasks to complex operations such as measuring air
currents in the wind tunnel or sewing leather seat covers.
SMALL ROBOTS
The compact, space-saving robots from KUKA are among
the fastest and most reliable robots in their class. All of them utilize the
advantages of the world’s most dependable and best-selling PC-based control
platform KRC. And it goes without saying that this diverse range of KUKA
robots can be freely combined within a single system – always with the
benefits of using the same control platform.
SPECIAL MODELS
The KUKA special models are ideally suited to special
tasks. Based on the standard models, these robot types have been
systematically optimized to achieve optimal results in their respective
applications. The robot types shown here serve merely as examples for the
construction types.
The more difficult the tasks, the more KUKA robots simplify the work
processes. In this chapter you will find special robot models that have been
optimized to specific requirements and geared towards maximum utilization of
the workspaces.
Whatever specialist you are looking for: you will certainly find the right
type for your application among the KUKA range of special models. The
spectrum ranges from an impressive selection of shelf-mounted robots,
press-to-press robots and palletizing robots, to arc welding specialists
with Hollow Wrist, and even KUKA JET gantry robots with the jointed-arm
robot mounted directly on the linear unit. As you can see: KUKA is always
there to help you.
LINEAR UNITS
Maximize your productivity all the way down the line.
KUKA linear units allow you to increase workspaces significantly. Another
major advantage: the linear units function as external axes, thus dispensing
with the need for an additional controller.
The KUKA product range covers every payload category, every environment and
every requirement. The spectrum ranges from ceiling-mounted units to the
high-speed variant and even linear units with a protective cover. You thus
hold all the options for decisively expanding your success margin.
