WHY THE ENTIRE KUKA FAMILY IS SO AMBITIOUS…
They can load, unload, cut, measure, laser, palletize, seal, coat, assemble, inspect and sort. In short they can do practically anything – and that's just the plastics industry.
And the fact that KUKA robots need to stay a decisive technological step ahead of the competition, makes them so ambitious… |

INJECTION MOLDING
No matter whether you are producing small products for the medical industry or large components for the automotive market, KUKA offers you a unique product portfolio the like of which you will find nowhere else on the market.
THERMOFORMING
With KUKA robots you can cover the entire spectrum of thermoforming processes with perfect ease. From a batch size of 1 for technically complex products up to batch sizes of over 1200 pieces/min in the packaging sector – KUKA robots are ideally adapted to your processes.
BLOW MOLDING
Thanks to their precision and repeatability, KUKA robots allow you to meet the changing requirements of your customers. KUKA robots are flexible in their application utilizing a wide variety of tools, giving all the required blow molding processes a new dimension of quality and efficiency.
EXTRUSION
With their strength and stamina, KUKA robots ensure the maximum possible output from your extrusion systems thanks to their nearly 100% availability. KUKA takes on the entire logistical challenge, even with extremely complex and heavy-duty tasks.
OTHER APPLICATIONS
The use of KUKA robots for machining workpieces in the plastics industry opens up a whole new world of possibilities in terms of agility, versatility and workspace size. In particular, the KUKA floor-mounted robot series, mounted on platforms, gantries, linear axes and bridges, enables a machining position “from above”, thus allowing optimal utilization of the workspace around the workpiece and machine table.

LOW PAYLOADS
KUKA robots with low payloads are particularly suitable for small-scale activities
such as component testing, assembly of small parts, or grinding, polishing and bonding.
MEDIUM PAYLOADS
Potential applications for medium payload robots range from simple handling
tasks to complex operations such as measuring air currents in the wind tunnel or sewing leather seat covers.
HIGH PAYLOADS
KUKA robots from the high payload range are particularly sought after for spot welding, handling and loading/unloading tasks. Their long reach and great flexibility make them indispensable partners.
SHELF-MOUNTED
KUKA robots from the high payload range are particularly sought after for spot
welding, handling and loading/unloading tasks. Their long reach and great flexibility make them indispensable partners. |
