KUKA KR 13 R900-3 industrial robot with KR C5-2 controller

KUKA KR 13 R900-3 with KR C5-2 controller is a next-generation compact 6-axis industrial robot from the KR AGILUS ultra family, offering a rated payload of 13 kg and a maximum reach of 901 mm.

KR AGILUS ultra is KUKA’s newer compact robot platform for demanding high-density production and payloads up to 16 kg. The series combines a slim interference contour, high rigidity and protected internal cabling. Its closed mechanical design supports both clean production and harsher industrial areas while maintaining fast cycle performance.

Within the family, the KR 13 R900-3 configuration is positioned for applications that require 13 kg of payload capacity and a 901 mm working reach. Its nominal positioning repeatability is ±0.02 to ±0.03 mm, depending on model. The final usable payload depends on the complete tool and workpiece load case, including center of gravity, inertia and any supplementary loads on the arm.

KR C5-2 and iiQKA.OS2 provide the current control basis for these models. The robot is a strong candidate for new installations that require compact dimensions, modern interfaces and higher tooling reserves than earlier small-robot generations.

Controller compatibility: KUKA’s current product data lists this exact model with KR C5-2 support. The controller field is recorded as KR C5-2 so that previous-generation and new-generation controller options are not confused. Software packages, safety functions, fieldbus interfaces and operating-system release must still be confirmed for the final delivered configuration.

Typical applications

• precision assembly
• semiconductor and electronics handling
• compact machine tending
• inspection
• multi-part handling
• packaging

For a Eurobots project, this robot can be considered for new automation cells, replacement studies, robot-track installations, process trials and technical pre-selection. Final engineering should be based on the exact KUKA article number, load diagram, mounting position, environmental version and controller software package.
