KUKA KR 300 R2800-2 MT industrial robot with KR C5-2 controller

KUKA KR 300 R2800-2 MT with KR C5-2 controller is a very-heavy-payload 6-axis industrial robot from the KR FORTEC ultra family, offering a rated payload of 300 kg and a maximum reach of 2800 mm.

KR FORTEC ultra is KUKA’s current very-heavy-payload platform for large components, high inertia and demanding industrial processes. The modular double-rocker design is intended to provide high stiffness while controlling robot weight and energy use. Payload classes extend into applications that would otherwise require dedicated gantries or special manipulators.

Within the family, the KR 300 R2800-2 MT configuration is positioned for applications that require 300 kg of payload capacity and a 2800 mm working reach. Its nominal positioning repeatability is ±0.08 mm. Machine-tooling configuration 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.

Engineering must include dynamic floor loads, foundation design, installation and recovery access, tool inertia and the full workpiece envelope. Selected MT, foundry and high-inertia variants should be treated as distinct technical configurations during quotation.

Controller compatibility: KUKA’s current product data lists this exact model with KR C5-2 support. The controller field is recorded as KR C5 / 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

• very heavy handling
• giga-casting handling
• foundry automation
• large machine tending
• heavy assembly
• high-inertia process tooling

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.
