17% shorter machining times With KUKA robots, you gain valuable time. 50% higher throughput Achieved by 24-hour operation Where accuracy of the machine tool is not required, the robot takes over tasks such as drilling, brushing and deburring of the machine. This reduces the spindle run time per part. In KUKA’s own production operations for instance, this cuts the machining time per component from 48 to 40 minutes at a machining center. KUKA robots: working for you non-stop. Where productivity is concerned, every second counts. KUKA robots enable you to fully exploit the potential of your...
