Robotic Positioner Solutions



KUKA offers the KP1-HC, KP3-VCH and DKP 400 positioners, which employ robotic components for high availability and reliability as well as maximum torque for short cycle times.

The KP1-HC single-axis positioner with horizontal rotational axis consists of a drive and counter bearing with a hollow shaft. It is available with a payload capacity of 500 kg, 750 kg, 1,000 kg, 1,500 kg, 2,000 kg or 4,000 kg. Tool radii of 800 mm to 1,470 mm offers maximum flexibility in system design. Its compact design allows the KP1-HC to be easily integrated anywhere, and infinite rotating design enables it to be used without limitation in any axis orientation.

The KP3-V2H 3-axis positioner with two machining stations offers maximum flexibility in terms of payload capacity, tool radii and distances between face plates and is available with a payload capacity of 500 kg, 750 kg, 1,000 kg or 1,500 kg. Face plates on the KP3-V2H are electrically insulated, which simplifies the integration process and improves the longevity of the positioner, particularly in arc welding applications.

With a payload capacity of 400 kg, the DKP 400 2-axis positioner with one rotational and one tilting axis enables the flexible machining of workpieces. Regardless of the axis it is using, the DKP's tilt-turn positioner finds the required position quickly and precisely with the capability to allow a supply of energy and fluids through the face plate.
