KUKA KR16 R2010-2
Robot details
The KUKA KR 16 R2010‑2 is a 6‑axis industrial robot designed for applications requiring extra‑long reach, reliable payload capacity, and high industrial performance in demanding automation environments.
With a payload of 16 kg and an extended reach of 2,010 mm, the KR 16 R2010‑2 is ideal for machine tending, material handling, assembly, and pick‑and‑place operations across large workspaces. Its robust mechanical structure ensures high accuracy, repeatability, and stability, even when operating at maximum reach.
The robot is powered by the KUKA KR C5 controller, KUKA’s latest‑generation control platform, offering high‑performance motion control, advanced connectivity, and compact system architecture designed for modern, digitally integrated manufacturing systems.
Motion Concept and Performance
The KUKA KR 16 R2010‑2 is optimized for industrial speed, stability, and repeatability, making it suitable for continuous, high‑throughput production processes.
