»The seRies 2000 shelf-MoUnTed RoboTs: The ModUlAR spAce-sAveRs
The Series 2000 shelf-mounted robots stand for greater flexibility and a longer downward reach: with power-
ful motors, high-performance gear units and amplified servo drive, they achieve high output with payloads of
up to 210 kg and a work envelope of up to 8 m in diameter. With installation on either the floor or a machine,
the series is versatile, space-saving and ideally suited to challenging removal processes.
Thanks to their modular design, three arm length variants and large product portfolio, the Series 2000
shelf-mounted robots can be quickly upgraded or converted. For cleanrooms or environments with a high
degree of fouling and high temperatures, the special variants Cleanroom (CR) and Foundry (F) are available.
The advantages: a high degree of planning reliability and security of investment.
»exTReMelY ModUlAR – exTReMelY expAndAble
The Series 2000 shelf-mounted robots are available in three
arm length variants and have a large product portfolio with a
total of 31 variants. Thanks to their modular design, the robots
can also be quickly retrofitted for increased payload or reach.
There’s no more laborious, cost-intensive implementation of new
systems – and production can start in record time. The advan-
tages: flexible production and rapid commissioning.

High speed and maximum output: the high installed motor
capacity and high-torque gear units in all axes make the Series
2000 shelf-mounted robots highly dynamic and extremely
powerful. Added to this is the precision control, which gives
these high-performers a repeatability of ±0.06 mm. The result:
better manufacturing quality, fewer rejects, and thus greater
efficiency for your production. The advantages: shorter cycle
times and higher quality.

Designed for maximum cost-effectiveness: with a low robot
base and axis 2 located 400 mm further forward, the shelf-
mounted robots are perfect for working from above, for exam-
ple for efficient removal of castings or plastic parts. Thanks
to their low weight, they can also be installed directly on the
machine, thereby saving space and enabling them to reach far
into the machine with great speed. The advantages: reduced
space requirements and improved process optimization.

KUKA offers you a comprehensive range of software. In addi-
tion to expandable system software and simulation programs
for system design, we also provide you with specific application
software, such as KUKA.PlastTech: the software coordinates
and optimizes the work process of robots and injection molding
machines – thereby reducing the cycle time for production of
the parts. The advantages: maximum ease of operation
and major time savings.
KUKA shelf-mounted robots are ideal for unloading parts from injection
molding machines.
The low base is specially optimized for working downwards.
