KUKA at EMO Hannover 2017
KUKA Robotics is presenting new solutions for the metal industry from a ready2_use package for the simple integration of a robot through to a complete milling application. The world of metalworking meets up in Hannover from 18 to 23 September.
Standardized gripper solution
ready2_grip is an easy-to-integrate, preconfigured gripper package. It will be demonstrated at EMO in conjunction with the KR AGILUS small robot. Here, the robot functions as a handling assistant, for example helping to load and unload machines.
Robot control package: intuitive programming of path planning
KUKA’s ready2_pilot is used for operator control of the robot. With this package, any KUKA industrial robot can be intuitively controlled and programmed. For this, a 6D mouse is installed on the robot, allowing it to be moved in all directions. The path planning is automatically programmed in the background.
