LBR stands for “Leichtbauroboter” (German for lightweight robot), iiwa for “intelligent industrial work assistant”. With the LBR iiwa, humans and robots can work together on highly sensitive tasks in close cooperation, opening the possibility of new applications and paving the way for greater cost-effectiveness and efficiency.

Advantages

Quick reactions: Thanks to its joint torque sensors, the LBR iiwa can detect contact immediately and reduces its level of force and speed instantly.

Sensitive: The lightweight LBR iiwa with its high-performance servo control is able to detect contours quickly under force control. It establishes the correct installation position and mounts components quickly and with the utmost precision with an axis-specific torque accuracy of ±2% of the maximum torque.

Able to learn: ou can choose from three operating modes and program the LBR iiwa via simulation: indicate the desired position and it will remember the coordinates of the path point.

Independent: The LBR iiwa’s controller, KUKA Sunrise Cabinet, simplifies the quick start-up of even complex applications.
