## KUKA Expands with KR TITAN Ultra Series Heavy-Duty Robots

KUKA is expanding its options for heavy-duty automation in the automotive, battery, and logistics sectors by adding two new models to its KR TITAN ultra robot portfolio.

The KR TITAN ultra series consists of six-axis industrial robots designed for applications requiring large payload capacities and long reach. The new models offer a payload capacity of up to 1,000 kg and a reach of between 4,200 mm and 3,700 mm.

### KR TITAN Ultra Features

• Payload capacity up to 1,000 kg
• 4,200 mm and 3,700 mm reach options
• Six-axis robot design
• High stability and repeatability
• Low cycle time under heavy load conditions

With the two new models in the series, the KR TITAN ultra now has 4 different configurations. This variety allows system integrators to choose the most suitable reach and payload characteristics based on the application.

While the existing 1,500 kg capacity models focus on maximum lifting capacity, the new models stand out with longer reach. Additionally, special variants designed for challenging foundry environments, such as those with dust, heat, and humidity, are also available.

KR TITAN ultra robots feature a rigid structure and a dual-link arm design to withstand high moments of inertia. This enables the controlled handling of large and heavy parts.

In automotive manufacturing, these robots can be used in many areas such as battery packs, body modules, and heavy tooling; they support body processing and large fixture operations.

In battery production, their wide reach allows them to cover large stations without the need to reposition the base. Their payload capacities and working areas also support the handling of large-format components.

### Application Areas and Performance

• Handling of heavy automotive chassis
• High-mass automation processes
• Dusty, hot, and humid foundry environments

The new models of the KR TITAN ultra series further strengthen KUKA's high-mass automation solutions with a reach of over 4 meters. The rigid mechanical design allows for precise handling of high-inertia parts.
