With a reach of 800 to 820 mm and a lifting capacity of 7 kg or 14 kg, KUKA supplies the LBR Med, a CB scheme-certified robotic component for integration into medical devices, thus bundling all the robotic capabilities that are specifically required in medical technology. The multifunctional robotic platform LBR Med can calibrate itself completely independently with the aid of sensors and operate precisely with a repeatability of ± 0.1 to ± 0.15 mm. Standards are also set in the processing of the relevant data in hardware and software as well as in the performance features of the device, because the LBR Med has all the prerequisites for safe use in medical technology. Thanks to the redundant, integrated torque sensors, the LBR Med can detect externally acting forces and react according to the programmed specifications. Collision detection is monitored by integrated sensors and is a prerequisite for human-robot collaboration.
