Diagnostic Robotics in Clinical Environments

On the one hand, manufacturers of robotic diagnostic systems benefit from the integration of KUKA robots. Their precision and flexibility allows diagnostic procedures to be faster, more versatile and more reliable. On the other hand, these robotic systems can rely on the KUKA Medical Robotics team to support their customers throughout the product lifecycle of medical automation to improve patients' lives.


More reliable diagnosis with robotic systems

Reliable diagnostic procedures are often complex and time-consuming. Robots simplify the task of diagnosis with their high robustness and safe cooperation with the patient, from angiography to ultrasound.

Precise path planning and integrated imaging allow a significant increase of the reliability of diagnostic procedures in the hospital. Position tracking, precise positioning options and real-time control also make diagnostic tasks more efficient and improve the quality for the patient. The KUKA Sunrise.OS Med operating system, which was developed specifically for healthcare technology, enables a wide range of diagnostic applications to be implemented for the LBR Med, which can also be controlled by AI.

Robotics for Diagnostic Systems

Maximum accuracy, safety and efficiency for optimal healthcare treatment

The LBR Med, the world's first HRC-compliant robotic arm certified under the IECEE CB Scheme, enables medical device manufacturers to accelerate time-to-market and development of their medical robots. Its sensitivity and flexible control make it ideal for integration into diagnostic systems, enabling precise examination and diagnosis. These systems can support hospital staff and healthcare professionals, for example, in repetitive tasks.

The KR QUANTEC HC can move large payloads safely, making it ideal for use in diagnostic imaging applications in the healthcare sector. Its high stiffness, long reach and precision make it the ideal companion for medical applications that can also be controlled by AI. All movements are monitored to enhance patient safety and support the healthcare industry.
