LBR iisy

The LBR iisy – a sensitive, light, scalable robot for every production area.

As a pioneer and driver of innovative automation solutions, KUKA do not define their standards by what already exists, but rather by the needs of the future. Already in 2004, they set a milestone in the history of robotics with the world’s first cobot. Thereupon, they have merged additional strands and interwoven them to form novel production landscapes in which humans, technology and data streams are networked.

The result of this synergy – the LBR iisy – is incredibly effective and impressive both in industrial series production and in environments with dynamic, unstructured workplaces previously closed to automation.

The LBR iisy masters diverse worlds of production.
Thanks to its industry-proven technology, it can be integrated into predefined production processes in no time at all. In equal measure, the new lightweight robot also excels ad hoc in open, unstructured work environments with unpredictable and volatile conditions from one job to the next.

The LBR iisy can be immediately operated by anyone.
From an automation expert to a cobotics newcomer. Featuring various operator levels, the user-friendly system adapts highly flexibly to the corresponding level of user knowledge. As a result, the LBR iisy is equally at home in complex areas of automation as in unstructured environments where it interacts with semi-skilled personnel who have received only a minimum of training.

The LBR iisy is intelligent and extremely flexible.
Thanks to its connectivity, it can adapt immediately to any manufacturing requirement. It produces the smallest of batches in no time at all and shares its knowledge with many other cobots. It interacts safely and sensitively with humans. Working on its own, it easily meets the performance requirements for high-speed applications.

ADVANTAGES

Proven industrial suitability
The future-oriented technology of the LBR iisy is based on KUKA’s full expertise – in particular, on the LBR iiwa and the KR 3 AGILUS. The cobot supports all major industry-standard functions such as OPC UA, field bus protocols, digital and analog I/Os, safety and much more. As a result, the LBR iisy can be immediately integrated into any existing industrial environment.

Ready for use at a moment’s notice
The LBR iisy is ready for immediate use and can be quickly and easily reprogrammed for new tasks. Another advantage: even in the event of unplanned interruptions, it remembers every motion or activity executed and can resume working without the need to be retaught.

At home in any work environment
The LBR iisy is not only easy to operate, but also highly versatile. Whether for loading or unloading machines, packaging, precise testing, reliable assembly, handling or difficult research tasks – its payload of 3 kg and reach of 600 mm are perfectly suited to the challenges of confined workspaces.

Access to the KUKA ecosystem
The LBR iisy is fully embedded into the KUKA Industrie 4.0 ecosystem. Software apps enabling the LBR iisy’s field of activity to be expanded will be globally available for download. The cloud solution KUKA Connect allows the cobot’s data to be accessed and analyzed at any time.

TECHNICAL DATA

Equipped for universal or application-specific use “out of the box”. KUKA will offer preconfigured application modules and system components online in order to equip the LBR iisy for current needs in no time at all. As a result, the capabilities of the LBR iisy can be individually adapted to the respective process requirements at any time.
