Product catalog summary

Introduction to Industrie 4.0: The document discusses the transformation of production through Industrie 4.0, which aims to create competitive advantages globally. This involves intelligent, networked industrial production and logistics processes using cyber-physical production systems (CPPS). The goal is to develop smart factories that can self-optimize and adapt to demographic changes, such as aging populations and declining birth rates, while conserving natural resources.

KUKA's Role and Technologies: KUKA is developing key technologies to enhance productivity and ergonomics in new working environments. These include collaborative robots, mobile assistance systems, autonomously controlled vehicles, and intelligently networked automation solutions. These technologies aim to support human workers by easing workloads and improving efficiency.

KMR iiwa - Mobile Robotics: The KMR iiwa is highlighted as a mobile, intelligent production assistant designed for Industrie 4.0. It combines the LBR iiwa lightweight robot with a mobile platform, offering flexibility and adaptability in production environments. The system is capable of autonomous navigation, enabled by Sunrise.OS, and can operate in cleanroom conditions (ISO 5).

Technical Specifications: The document provides detailed specifications for the KMR iiwa, including dimensions, payload capacities, and operational capabilities. The mobile platform has a maximum payload of 170 kg and can move at speeds up to 3.6 km/h. The LBR iiwa robots have a positioning accuracy of ±0.1 mm and are suitable for various installation positions.

Applications and Benefits: The KMR iiwa is designed to work alongside humans, machines, and workpieces, enhancing production flexibility and efficiency. It can autonomously manage tasks such as machine tending and component retrieval, reducing the need for complex cabling and allowing for safe human-robot collaboration.

KMR iiwa The mobile, intelligent production assistant The industrial manufacturing of tomorrow will require production and logistics concepts which are intelligently networked, modular, versatile and thus also mobile. Solutions which can work in the vicinity of humans, workpieces and machines in equal measure. Just like humans, the KMR iiwa ( Mobile Robot) production assistant can also track moving workpieces, move around them freely and link solitary production islands to form new, highly ﬂexible production units. As a mobile, intelligent helper, the KMR iiwa is prepared for the challenges of...

Industrie 4.0 Prepared for transformation of the worlds of production Smart Production, Internet of Things or Industrie 4.0. Even if the names and terms used vary from one country to another, they all share the same goal: the creation of elementary competitive advantages – at both company level and in global competition. Work on the factory of the future is thus in full swing worldwide. This involves intelligent, networked industrial production and logistics processes on the basis of cyber-physical production systems (CPPS). Or, to put it simply: factories that, by means of advanced networking,...
