KUKA training cells: Practical robotics for tomorrow's skilled workers

KUKA Education teaches school and university students robotics, programming, and automation in line with industry standards — ith modular training cells for direct use and didactically prepared training materials.

From theory to practice: Understanding robotics step by step

KUKA Education brings robotics to life for colleges, universities, and training companies. Our mobile training cells supplement theoretical training with practical exercises on industrial robots in a safe environment—including CE labeling and UL certification— and enable an efficient introduction to modern industrial applications.

The robotics cells can be used independently, are ready for immediate use, and can be flexibly expanded. For individual requirements, KUKA supplies additional components, software, training, and comprehensive support – ideal for integration into existing learning systems or retrofit solutions. Students learn the basics of robotics step by step – from simple stacking to complex path programs and logic controls.

KUKA training cells impress with their modular design and flexible configuration options. They can be adapted to individual requirements and create optimal learning conditions – supported by specially developed application packages.

Application packages in detail

Application Package Pro - Basic training for typical robot tasks

  • Magazine: Magazine for nine cubes with integrated holder for three different tools.
  • Gripper & Cube (already included in the basic package): Gripper and cube for pick & place applications, which are included in almost every robot application.
  • “Hot wire”: Participants practice precise robot movements by guiding the eyelet along the contours.
  • Pen & paper: For training path movements analogous to welding and gluing with the robot. The spring-loaded pen prevents damage to the application. The use of standard A4 paper allows the instructor to create their own exercises for training or practical exams.

PLC application package - Commissioning and programming in automatic external mode

  • Siemens PLC
    • License for TIA Portal programming
    • Seven hardware digital I/Os
    • Sub-D interface for Siemens HMI (not included in scope of delivery)
  • Automatic external operation with digital I/Os via KUKA smartPad solutions

Vision application package – Introduction to image processing

The Vision Package includes the following components:

  • Application-specific components (dropbox, slider, additional vacuum gripper, alignment station, calibration plate)
  • Stationary, adjustable smart camera with lens and autofocus
  • Lighting (red light)
  • Unlimited licenses for offline programming
  • Cabling & power supply (electrical and pneumatic)

Efficient start: Simulation for your training cell

Use the simulation software to plan, test, and optimize your training cell virtually before you move on to the real application. Create robot programs on your PC and transfer them seamlessly to the real robot. This allows you to identify errors early on, make processes more efficient, and teach training content in a practical way. This saves time, reduces costs, and ensures a smooth transition to automation.


  • KUKA.Sim: Simulation software for users of the System Software (KSS) operating system.
  • iiQWorks.Sim: Simulation tool for users of the iiQKA.OS2 operating system. iiQWorks.Sim Education License for institutions is available at a reduced price.
