KUKA to Debut New Heavyweight AMR at PROMAT 2025
KUKA Robotics will unveil the latest heavyweight addition to its line of autonomous mobile robots (AMRs), the KMP 3000P, at PROMAT 2025, March 17 – 20 at Chicago’s McCormick Place. In addition to the new AMR, KUKA is spotlighting pick and place material handling solutions that help manufacturers increase efficiency and productivity.
Visitors to KUKA’s booth #N7307 in Hall B of the North Building will experience two robotic cells designed to meet manufacturing workforce challenges for improved production. The first cell will showcase the capabilities of KUKA’s new KMP 3000P AMR transporting heavy rolls to a KR QUANTEC for handling and placement.
The second cell demonstration will feature a KUKA LBR iisy cobot and KMP 600P AMR. The cell will provide visitors a unique interactive experience with KUKA robots that pick, place and deliver a giveaway item they pick from a tablet.
With the capacity to transport loads up to three tons in any direction, including diagonally, the KMP 3000P’s omnidirectional drive ensures maximum flexibility in the tightest of spaces in intralogistics. Four integrated 3D cameras and two laser scanners enable a 360° view, allowing the platform to recognize obstacles and drive around them effortlessly. This increases efficiency and safety in a variety of working environments while eliminating the need for in-floor guide systems. Equipped with an inductive charging system, the KMP 3000P charges wirelessly both centrally in a station and/or at various locations within the area through inductive charging pads attached to a facility’s floor.
The transported material will be handled by an AIRSKIN® equipped KR QUANTEC high payload robot that enables the robot to safely operate significantly faster than a cobot in a fenceless environment without compromising its reach, payload and reliability. The KR QUANTEC series consists of all-purpose, six-axis robots with the versatility to reliably handle a variety of production applications. The series streamlined design is also very adaptable to cost-effective cell planning.
In addition to its product demonstrations, KUKA Business Development Manager Denise Stafford will give a comprehensive introduction to mobile robotics from 3 – 3:45 p.m. on Monday, March 17 at Theater I located in Hall A of the South Building. In “How mobile robots have evolved: lessons learned from a decade of use,” Stafford will help attendees understand how to choose the right robot solution for the increasingly complex challenges they face.
