KUKA KR800 R2800-2

Robot details

The KUKA KR 800 R2800‑2 is a 6‑axis ultra‑heavy‑payload industrial robot engineered for extreme load handling, maximum structural rigidity, and reliable performance in the most demanding industrial automation environments.

With an exceptional payload capacity of 800 kg and a reach of 2,800 mm, the KR 800 R2800‑2 is designed for handling extremely heavy and oversized components, including large automotive assemblies, frames, molds, dies, castings, and structural parts. Its reinforced mechanical structure ensures outstanding stability, positioning accuracy, and repeatability, even under full payload and continuous heavy‑duty operation.

The robot is powered by the KUKA KR C5 controller, KUKA’s latest‑generation control platform, delivering high‑performance motion control, advanced connectivity, and compact system architecture for modern, digitally integrated ultra‑heavy‑duty automation systems.


Motion Concept and Performance

The KUKA KR 800 R2800‑2 is optimized for controlled, stable, and repeatable motion under extreme payloads, prioritizing rigidity, safety, and long‑term process reliability over aggressive acceleration.
