Compact robot controller KR C4 series

The KR C4 control system is efficient and flexible and reduces your long-term costs. Automation becomes powerful and easy. The KR C4 controller is a pioneer for the automation of today and tomorrow. It reduces costs in integration, maintenance and servicing. At the same time, the long-term efficiency and flexibility of the systems are increased – thanks to common, open industry standards. The KR C4 software architecture integrates Robot Control, PLC Control, Motion Control (for example KUKA.CNC) and Safety Control. All controllers share a database and infrastructure. This makes automation simpler and more powerful – today and in the future. The KR C4 concept is revolutionary. For the first time, Robot and Motion Control are seamlessly and interactively integrated with control processes for PLC, CNC and Safety. With simple and flexible robot programming via inline forms and new Spline motion programming, KR C4-based automation solutions are superior in every way. Furthermore, the KR C4 features intelligent, flexible and scalable application potential. High-end PLC support The high-end SoftPLC option allows full access to the entire controller I/O system and has a high runtime performance. It allows the I/O handling of the robot, a complete robot cell or line of robots. In addition, variables such as axis positions or velocities can be read and processed via function blocks.
