Product Description

Kuka Kr 180-2 Pa  5 Axes Industrial Robot Material  Handling

Key Features & Specifications

  1. Payload & Reach

    • Max Payload: 180 kg (with additional capacity for tooling) .

    • Max Reach: 3,200 mm, optimized for palletizing and large-scale material handling tasks .

    • Repeatability: High precision with FEM-optimized motion structure for efficient stacking .

  2. 5-Axis Articulated Design

    • Four active axes + one passive axis (5th axis for enhanced flexibility) .

    • Carbon Fiber (CFK) Arm: Reduces inertia and enables high acceleration, ideal for rapid cycle times .

  3. Applications

    • Palletizing: Stacking bags, boxes, or containers in food, logistics, and manufacturing .

    • Material Handling: Loading/unheavy items in production lines .

    • Integration: Compatible with KUKA’s KMC (KUKA Motion Control System) for modular automation .

  4. Performance Advantages

    • Compact Design: Slim base and hollow wrist for space-saving installation .

    • IP65 Protection: Dust and water-resistant for harsh environments .

    • Energy Efficiency: Optimized for low operational costs .

  5. Control & Programming

    • KRC4 Controller: Supports advanced programming via KUKA smartPAD with user-friendly interfaces .

    • RAPID Programming: Modular and parameterized workflows for adaptability .

Joint Range of Motion (ROM) & Limits:

Joint Movement Type Range (Degrees)
Joint 1 (Base Rotation) Rotational ±169°
Joint 2 (Shoulder Flexion) Rotational ±90°
Joint 3 (Elbow Flexion) Rotational ±90°
Joint 4 (Wrist Rotation) Rotational ±169°
Joint 5 (Gripper Rotation) Rotational ±104.5°

Key Notes:

  • The YouBot has soft and hard limits to prevent damage.

  • Exceeding these limits can cause motor strain or mechanical failure.

  • Ideal for pick-and-place, light assembly, and educational robotics.


2. KUKA KR180 R3200 PA Joint Limits (5-Axis Industrial Robot)

The KR180 R3200 PA is a heavy-duty 5-axis industrial robot designed for high payloads (180 kg) and precision tasks like palletizing, welding, and machine tending.

Joint Range of Motion (ROM) & Limits:

Joint Movement Type Range (Degrees)
Axis 1 (Base Rotation) Rotational ±185°
Axis 2 (Arm Forward/Backward) Rotational -40° to +85°
Axis 3 (Arm Up/Down) Rotational -138° to +80°
Axis 4 (Wrist Rotation) Rotational ±350°
Axis 5 (Wrist Bend) Rotational ±130°

Key Notes:

  • Designed for high-speed, heavy-duty automation.

  • Higher payload capacity than the YouBot (180 kg vs. ~2 kg).

  • Wider range in Axis 4 (wrist rotation) for flexible positioning.


3. Key Differences: KUKA YouBot vs. KR180 R3200 PA

Feature KUKA YouBot KR180 R3200 PA
Type Mobile manipulator (lightweight) Industrial robot (heavy-duty)
Degrees of Freedom (DOF) 5 5
Max Payload ~2 kg 180 kg
Joint Speed Moderate High-speed
Applications Research, education, light tasks Palletizing, welding, heavy automation

4. Best Practices for Operating KUKA Robots Within Joint Limits

✅ Use KUKA’s proprietary software (KUKA Sunrise.OS, KUKA.WorkVisual) for motion planning.
✅ Implement soft limits to prevent accidental over-rotation.
✅ Regularly calibrate joints to maintain accuracy.
✅ Monitor torque and temperature to avoid motor burnout.

Features


This series of robot is suitable for palletizing industry. Max.Range is 3195mm. If your pallet size is 1000mm*1200mm,the robot can cover up to 6 pallets. Just like simulation describes. The other advantage is robot cycle time. Up to stacking 800 bags one hour. So if your application is palletizing. We suggest you select this series robot.
Service We supply 3d model, foundation and flange dimensions of related robot. Supply training video to fresh customer. The video include of how to mastering,how to connect the cable,how to programming and so on. If you have any problem, call us anytime or sent email to us.
Robot Maintains The robot we suggest maintains every one year or 10000 hours. the main job is exchange oil, fans,UPS and so on. If the robot working in terrible environment, just like low temperature or wet environment. So such case we suggest half year or 5000 hours to do maintains.
