KUKA robots for high payloads from 90 kg to 300 kg

Product catalog summary

Overview: The document provides a comprehensive overview of KUKA's KR QUANTEC series, a range of industrial robots designed for high payloads between 90 kg and 300 kg. The series includes 29 models with various mounting options, offering versatility and power for a wide range of applications. These robots are suitable for environments requiring wet chemical cleaning and high-pressure processes due to their high IP 69 protection rating.

Specifications: The KR QUANTEC series is noted for its compact design, precision, low maintenance, and versatility. It features a streamlined structure with a thin wrist for improved accessibility in confined spaces. The robots have a small footprint, making them easy to install, and boast long maintenance intervals of around 20,000 operating hours. The KR C4 controller features MultiCore technology, an SSD hard drive, and interfaces such as USB3.0 and GbE, supporting up to 9 axes with a protection rating of IP 54.

Performance: The robots operate with high precision and dynamic performance, with a pose repeatability of ±0.06 mm. They are equipped with a hydropneumatic counterbalancing system and a hollow shaft in axis 1 for cable routing, reducing interference contours. The KR C4 controller's energy management system can reduce energy consumption by up to 95% in standby mode.

Models and Capabilities: The document lists various models within the KR QUANTEC series, including the pro, extra, prime, ultra, and nano variants. Each model is tailored for specific payloads and reach requirements, with detailed specifications on reach, payload, speed, and operating conditions. Linear units like KL 2000 and KL 4000 extend the work envelope significantly, offering flexibility, power, and modularity.

Operating Conditions: The robots are designed to operate in ambient temperatures ranging from +10 °C to +55 °C, with protection ratings of IP 65 for the robot and in-line wrist, and IP 67 for foundry applications. The KR C4 controller operates within a temperature range of +5 °C to +45 °C, extendable to +50 °C with a cooling unit.

Applications: The KR QUANTEC series is suitable for a variety of applications, including material handling, spot welding, and machining. The robots are also optimized for environments with high fouling and temperatures, making them ideal for foundry and engine production sectors. The document also highlights the use of KUKA's software solutions like KUKA.WorkVisual and KUKA.VisionTech for enhanced automation processes.

Innovations: The KR QUANTEC nano F exclusive model is highlighted for its robustness in extreme conditions, featuring encapsulated mechanical systems, pressurized interiors, and specialized coatings resistant to alkalis, acids, heat, and corrosion.

Conclusion: KUKA's industrial robotics solutions are designed to be powerful, flexible, and easy to integrate, making them suitable for a wide range of applications. The combination of advanced hardware and software packages ensures high availability and efficiency in automation processes.
