High dynamic response and permanent availability are features commonly expected of Kuka machines, especially those in the welding and painting departments of the highly competitive automotive industry where these robots really come into their own.
The strengths which have made these industrial heavyweights so popular include their precision for repeated sequences, and the short cycle times due to high acceleration properties of the Lenze drives, but above all, excellent reliability.
The KR350 is Kuka's most powerful robot.
It boasts an operating range of almost 3 metres and can move whole car bodies weighing some 350kg to a repeatable accuracy of 0.35mm, relying on Lenze 9300 servo-inverters for all movement power.
At least 6 servo drives are required to enable the robotic arm to perform its manufacturing functions. Request a free brochure from Lenze ...
