Augsburg / Düsseldorf, September 2007 – Visitors with a need for speed will find what they were looking for at the KUKA Roboter booth 04D in Hall 11. At the world’s largest fair for the plastics industry, the robots from the European market leader are stepping on the gas. On show, for example, are the new KR 16 KSS Speed shelf-mounted robot and the nifty KR 5 scara from the Small Robots family. Speed is also of the essence when it comes to operator control. Start-up is carried out in record time with the user-friendly KUKA Smart GUI user interface. |

| The KR 16 KSS Speed variant from KUKA Roboter is making its debut here. As with all KUKA shelf-mounted robots, it combines increased depth of the work envelope in a downward direction with a reduced intrinsic size. However, the KR 16 KSS is 20 percent faster. This is a particular advantage for the loading and unloading of smaller injection molding machines with fast cycles. This speed merchant is KUKA Roboter’s answer to demands from the industry for compact, flexible and above all faster automation solutions. These are all attributes of the KR 16 KSS – which thus relegates all conventional solutions for loading and unloading injection-molded parts to the spectator stands. | |
|
| Another speed merchant is the KR 5 scara. This member of the Small Robots family from KUKA Roboter is demonstrating high-speed applications to visitors as part of a study. | |
|
It is not only the KUKA robots that are fast, however. The technological pioneer has also spared a thought for the operator. Operation of the KUKA Smart GUI user interface is child’s play. It allows simple, user-friendly programming and control of handling, pick-and-place, manipulating and finishing tasks for robots. Visitors to the fair have the opportunity to try this out for themselves.
Having thus gained momentum, it is worth visiting the numerous KUKA system partners at the fair to find out about other pioneering applications for KUKA robots in the plastics industry. | |
