KUKA KR70 R2100 HO KRC5

Robot details

The KUKA KR 70 R2100 HO is a 6‑axis industrial robot designed for hygienic and food‑related automation environments.
The HO (Hygienic Oil) version uses NSF H1 food‑grade lubrication, making it ideal for applications where cleanliness, safety, and contamination prevention are critical.

With a rated payload of 70 kg and a maximum reach of 2101 mm, the robot is suitable for medium‑to‑heavy handling tasks in automated production lines.
Its smooth surface design and special coating allow easy cleaning and high resistance to cleaning agents used in food and beverage industries.

The robot is powered by the KUKA KRC5 controller, which provides high computing performance, precise motion control, and easy integration with artificial intelligence, vision systems, and Industry 4.0 solutions.
This combination allows the robot to operate efficiently in smart factories and AI‑driven production systems.
