The basis for the innovative LBR iiwa robotics consists of the specially developed KUKA Sunrise control technology, the KUKA Sunrise Cabinet control hardware and the KUKA Sunrise.OS control software. KUKA Sunrise Cabinet unites safety control, robot control, logic control and process control of the entire system. Its interfaces, scalability, performance and openness mean that there are virtually limitless automation possibilities. In the future, it will also be possible to control multiple lightweight robots with a single controller.
Programmed for success: KUKA Sunrise.Workbench.
The new KUKA Sunrise.Workbench engineering suite for programming, start-up and debugging has also been developed exclusively for the LBR iiwa. It makes operator control more intuitive and user-friendly than ever before. Programmers receive active support, for example, from the integrated handbook, the auto-complete function and the highlighting of syntax and errors in the program code.
New user interface: KUKA smartPAD.
Just as intelligent as the way the LBR iiwa works is the way it can be operated. With the tried-and-tested KUKA smartPAD and the redesigned user interface. Tiles with self-explanatory icons lead rapidly to the desired functions, while colored status LEDs provide fast feedback about the current status of the robot station. More detailed information and problem solutions are never more than a few clicks away. Thanks to multiple visualization functions, the smartPAD simplifies work and boosts both safety and productivity.
