The KUKA KR 1000 Titan can lift a payload of 1,000kg with a reach of 4,000mm. The Titan is a series-manufactured machine, which makes it a far more cost-effective solution than conventional systems. In addition, there is no comparable product on the industrial robot market in terms of payload capacity, reach and handling flexibility. The Titan can handle large castings or meter-thick panes of glass. The robot is strong and robust, without compromising on precision or accuracy. At full stretch, it reaches a height of over 4m. Nine motors are installed, which together deliver the power of a mid-sized car. As a result, its design called not only for a robust steel base frame but also for a completely new drive concept. In axes one and three, two motors feed into a single gear unit. Axis two is also powered by two motors, each with its own gear unit. The KUKA Titan can also withstand a static torque of 60,000Nm, The work envelope is 78m3.
