    You have to move the robot through doors somehow. I was confused, too. The frontview looks so small and compact, the sideview is impressive.

  • Kuka robots are great, commissioned a robot welding cell with an r1820 through wrist with the KRC4 controller.

    Thing was working nearly 24/7 for 5 years. Went back to that installation 5 years later. I setup a dial indicator and ran some repeatability tests.

    This thing was still at +/- 0.05mm after 5 years of hell. Paint burning off it, hard hard work running a mig torch. Crazy stuff

  • Kuka makes amusement rides out of these arms too. Universal islands of adventure has one of them. It's a very unique ride system

  • Kuka robots are dominant in the Mercedes Benz factory in Sindelfingen Germany, saw them at many factory tours. Kuka also means “who” in the Finnish language 🤣
