This presentation shows the key features of the KR C5 controller and the KSS 8.7 software (KUKA System Software) for programming KUKA industrial robots.
Compact, high-quality and energy-efficient: the KR C5 controller from KUKA simultaneously offers a number of space- and resource-saving options and highly efficient performance. This means that it can be seamlessly integrated into heterogeneous automation environments and that almost all KR C4 applications are supported again for more application possibilities with maximum cost-effectiveness.
The KSS operating system offers you the possibility to implement a wide range of robot-based applications. No matter whether you are planning, installing, commissioning, operating or maintaining robot-based systems: With KSS you can achieve your goals faster and more efficiently. KUKA is continuously developing KSS as an open, flexible and secure platform to meet the demanding requirements of the robotics environment.
Technical Measures to optimize Energy Consumption
▪ Increased voltage of the intermediate circuit
▪ Reduce energy consumption of components
▪ Lowering the brake voltage when brakes are opened
▪ More efficient semiconductors
▪ High-efficient 24V power supply
▪ Optimizing of motor currents
▪ Switching off of all possible circuitry in sleep mode
