KUKA KR FORTEC: The All-Rounder for Heavy-Duty Handling
The KR FORTEC from KUKA is a powerhouse in the realm of heavy-duty robotics, expertly designed to be an energy-efficient and dynamic solution for a wide range of handling applications. With a robust payload capacity of up to 500 kg, this robot is a versatile all-rounder that excels in demanding industrial environments.
Efficiency and Reliability: A Winning Combination
Leveraging KUKA’s renowned industrial robot concepts, the KR FORTEC requires minimal maintenance while delivering exceptional reliability. This translates to reduced downtime and increased productivity for your operations. The robot’s flexible expandability, combined with its economical energy consumption and low maintenance needs, makes it a smart investment that contributes significantly to the cost-effectiveness of your production processes.
Seamless Integration into KUKA’s Robot Portfolio
The KR FORTEC’s payload capacity strategically positions it between the KR QUANTEC and the KR FORTEC Ultra, effectively completing KUKA’s comprehensive range of industrial robots. This makes it a perfect fit for various sectors, particularly the automotive and general industries, where its capabilities can be fully realized.
Standardization and Streamlined Production
By incorporating the KR FORTEC into your production line, you can standardize your automated handling processes, achieving a consistently high level of quality. This, coupled with the robot’s low total cost of ownership (TCO), further enhances the overall efficiency and profitability of your operations.
Compact, Powerful, and Designed for Performance
The KR FORTEC is engineered for optimal performance even within confined spaces. Its compact design doesn’t compromise its power, enabling it to deliver fast performance with remarkably low energy consumption. Higher dynamics contribute to reduced cycle times, while its streamlined shape makes it ideal for tasks like handling and spot welding.
Modularity for Enhanced Flexibility and Cost Savings
One of the key advantages of the KR FORTEC is its modular design. It shares identical spare parts with two other prominent KUKA robot families: the KR QUANTEC and the KR FORTEC Ultra. This modularity offers unparalleled flexibility when planning new tasks or modifying production processes. It also leads to significant cost reductions in spare parts storage and the development of diverse robot configurations.
Low TCO and Minimal Maintenance: A Focus on Value
The KR FORTEC is designed with a strong emphasis on minimizing TCO. Its low energy consumption, coupled with its exceptional reliability (up to 400,000 hours of trouble-free operation), significantly reduces operational costs. Furthermore, it benefits from proven service concepts, inherited from the KR QUANTEC and KR FORTEC Ultra, ensuring familiarity and ease of maintenance. The KR FORTEC’s low maintenance requirements, including the elimination of TÜV inspection for the counterbalance, further contribute to its overall value proposition. Maintenance tasks can be performed swiftly and effortlessly thanks to its optimized accessibility.
In Summary: The KR FORTEC Delivers on its Promise
The KUKA KR FORTEC is the ultimate all-rounder for heavy-duty handling. Its combination of energy efficiency, dynamic performance, compact design, modularity, and low TCO makes it an exceptional choice for businesses seeking to optimize their production processes, improve quality, and enhance cost-effectiveness.
