KUKA KR 60 R1200 Z400 industrial robot with KR C5-2 controller

KUKA KR 60 R1200 Z400 with KR C5-2 controller is a high-speed 4-axis scara robot from the KR SCARA family, offering a rated payload of 60 kg and a maximum reach of 1200 mm.

The KR SCARA family is designed for fast horizontal handling and precise vertical insertion in compact production equipment. Its four-axis kinematics provide short cycle times and high stiffness in the working plane, while the integrated Z stroke supports assembly, packaging and material-transfer tasks. The broad payload range allows one controller generation to cover light electronics as well as significantly heavier components.

Within the family, the KR 60 R1200 Z400 configuration is positioned for applications that require 60 kg of payload capacity and a 1200 mm working reach. Its nominal positioning repeatability is ±0.025 to ±0.05 mm, depending on model. IP54 The final usable payload depends on the complete tool and workpiece load case, including center of gravity, inertia and any supplementary loads on the arm.

The robot is particularly effective in standardized automation modules, conveyor-based lines and machine-loading stations. End-of-arm tooling, Z-stroke requirements, inertia, cable routing and the required environmental version should be checked against the exact application before selection.

Controller compatibility: KUKA’s current product data lists this exact model with KR C5-2 support. The controller field is recorded as KR C5-2 so that previous-generation and new-generation controller options are not confused. Software packages, safety functions, fieldbus interfaces and operating-system release must still be confirmed for the final delivered configuration.

Typical applications

• high-speed pick-and-place
• small-parts assembly
• screwdriving and insertion
• machine loading
• packaging
• testing and inspection

For a Eurobots project, this robot can be considered for new automation cells, replacement studies, robot-track installations, process trials and technical pre-selection. Final engineering should be based on the exact KUKA article number, load diagram, mounting position, environmental version and controller software package.
