Machining, forming, welding, loading and unloading of machine tools, and assembly are the most common processes in the production chain. KUKA robots prove their worth in all disciplines of metal processing: with flexibility and optimized reach, they offer utmost
repeatability and ensure not only maximum process speed but also perfect quality without the need for finishing work.

Developed for high-precision requirements and equipped with special tooling and control technology, KUKA robots ensure optimal, efficient processes. At the same time, the KUKA robots’ economical use of materials and energy makes a major contribution to increasing value creation everywhere in the metal industry.

With 220 different robot models, KUKA offers an exhaustive range of industrial robots and robot systems, covering all payload categories and robot types for the metal industry: 6-axis robots, palletizing robots, gantry robots, heat-resistant robots, welding robots, SCARA robots – KUKA offers robots of all sizes, covering all reach requirements, in payload categories from 3 kg to 1000 kg, in standard, shelf-mounted and SCARA versions. For installation on the floor, ceiling or wall, or on machines. KUKA offers more types, more options and thus greater efficiency in the industry-specific applications of its customers.

And the KUKA-developed, real-time-capable, PC-based controller with user-friendly Windows interface can be used to operate not only all types of robot, from simple 2-axis systems to complex special kinematic systems, but also different drive configurations, from individual asynchronous axes to complex machines.
