KUKA KR90 R2700
Robot details
The KUKA KR 90 R2700 is a 6‑axis heavy‑payload industrial robot designed for high load handling, long reach, and reliable industrial performance in demanding automation environments.
With a payload capacity of 90 kg and a reach of 2,700 mm, the KR 90 R2700 is ideally suited for material handling, machine loading and unloading, assembly, palletizing, and manipulation of large components. Its rigid mechanical structure ensures high positioning accuracy, repeatability, and stability, even when operating at extended reach and near maximum payload.
The robot is powered by the KUKA KR C5 controller, KUKA’s latest‑generation control platform, providing high‑performance motion control, advanced connectivity, and compact system architecture for modern, digitally integrated production systems.
Motion Concept and Performance
The KUKA KR 90 R2700 is optimized for stable, precise, and repeatable motion under heavy loads, rather than aggressive acceleration.
Key motion characteristics include:
- High structural rigidity for heavy payloads
- Stable point‑to‑point and continuous path motion
- High repeatability under load
- Reduced vibration and mechanical deflection
- Reliable performance in continuous industrial duty cycles
The 2,700 mm reach allows efficient coverage of large workspaces and handling of bulky components without the need for additional linear axes.
Controller & Software – KUKA KR C5
The KUKA KR C5 controller represents the latest evolution of KUKA’s industrial robot control technology and is designed for high‑performance, flexible, and digitally connected automation systems.
