Artificial Intelligence, Autonomous Mobile Robots (AMR) and the largest KUKA robot ever: At automatica 2025 in Munich, Germany, KUKA will demonstrate under the motto ‘making automation easier’, how simple solutions to complex challenges in the automation industry can be.
24 de junho de 2025
“For us, ‘making automation easier’ means far more than just simplifying technologies. It describes the way we interact with our customers: Every contact, every product and every service should simplify our customers' work and unlock new areas of application,’ says Reinhold Gross, CEO of KUKA's robotics division.
Specifically, this means comprehensive and intelligent software solutions, a reliable and broad hardware portfolio, simple and unrestricted availability of information, a self-explanatory purchasing process and KUKA's worldwide service.
KUKA also prioritises ease of use when it comes to the use of Artificial Intelligence (AI). “We integrate Artificial Intelligence into our products in a targeted manner in order to create added value for our customers and simplify access to robotics”, says Roland Ritter, Head of Software Portfolio Management at KUKA, during the press highlight tour.
One example of this is the AI assistant developed in collaboration with Microsoft for easier programming of KUKA robots. “With the iiQWorks.Copilot, our customers can enter prompts, i.e. text inputs such as questions in everyday language, directly into the AI. The AI then creates the code to program the robot for the respective task”, says Ritter. A first version of iiQWorks.Copilot will be available to customers by the end of the year.
In addition, KUKA will offer software and hardware for all robots in the future. The new KUKA robot operating system iiQKA.OS2, the associated engineering suite iiQWorks and the new KR C5 controller for iiQKA.OS2 form the basis for this.
Alongside AI, mobile robotics is one of the megatrends at the trade fair. Autonomous Mobile Robots (AMRs) have become an integral part of intralogistics. At automatica, KUKA is presenting its entire hardware and software portfolio in the field of AMR. “For our customers, ease of use and integration of our mobile robots are extremely important”, says Clemens Lauble, Head of AMR Knowledge Management & Transfer at KUKA. “With our intuitive KUKA.AMR Fleet software, it is possible to configure AMR fleets, define tasks and plan routes – all without any traditional programming knowledge”, says Lauble.
Standardized hardware and software, as well as openness to agnostic fleet management systems, enable customers in battery production, for example, to use the vehicles in areas that were previously difficult or impossible to automate.
At KUKA, not only the software portfolio is growing, but the hardware offering is also being continuously developed: New to the portfolio is the KR TITAN ultra, which will be presented for the first time at automatica with a payload of up to 1500 kg. “The robot is strongly market-oriented and tailored to the needs of our automotive and Tier 1 customers. It is a prime example of how we approach the development of our hardware”, says Erich Schober, Chief Sales Officer of KUKA's robotics division.
This includes application-optimized load capacity, which allows the robot to lift a complete battery box, for example. “We place particular emphasis on being close to our customers in a wide variety of markets, with robots and solutions that are tailored to local needs, as well as global quality and service standards”, says Schober.
