Wide Array of Applications
The Kuka KR 500L 340 is a versatile heavy-duty robot suitable for a wide range of applications including, deburring, drilling, fiberglass, grinding, milling, material loading, tending, handling, and so much more.
Deburring
Industrial deburring robots are mostly used by manufacturers to boost precision on the part being ground or filed. The KR 500L 340 makes for a topnotch deburring robot for removing material to take sharp edges, burrs, or fins off metal parts. This robot improves part quality as it can be programmed to each specific part and customized with the right end-of-arm-tooling to apply the correct amount and type of pressure in each area.
Grinding
Grinding robots help save time and production costs while improving the integrity and uniformity of each workpiece. They are known to remove excess material from the surface of machined parts and products quickly and efficiently. The grinding robots boast slim arm grinding robots specifically made to access the hard to reach areas of product, and they also reduce health risks associated with the metal dust getting in a workers eyes or lungs.
Machine Tending
Overseeing a machine while it performs a job is known as machine tending, and industrial robots are a great automation solution for this application. Also known as the process of feeding parts in and out, employing the use of robots for machine tending decreases part cycle time, saving customers money while ramping up productivity.
The KR 500L 340 remains one of the most highly sought-after robot arms in its class thanks to its speed and precision.
