More powerful, safer, more flexible and more intelligent. The KR C4 compact offers the high performance and reliability of the KR C4 technology in a compact design. Its flexible configuration and the expansion capability that results from this make it a real all-rounder.

The number of hardware components, cables and connectors has been significantly reduced and replaced by software-based solutions. The robust, high-quality controller is designed for low maintenance; the temperature-controlled fan technology only switches on briefly when needed, and is barely audible.

THE FEATURES AT A GLANCE

SPACE-SAVING. The compact dimensions of the housing enable space-saving installation in 19" enclosures or in small protective housings. Despite its compact size, the KR C4 compact offers the entire range of functions of the KR C4 controller. ALL-ROUNDER. Safety, Robot, Logic and Motion Control – the KR C4 combines everything in a single controller. And allows effortless control of the entire system. UNIVERSAL APPLICATION. Thanks to its open architecture, the KR C4 compact can control not only KUKA robots but also external axes – for maximum flexibility, scalability, performance and openness, in minimum space. COMMUNICATION TALENT. In addition to its own robot language KRL, the KR C4 also understands the language of the CNC machining world (G-code) and the language of PLCs, enabling it to communicate directly with your SIEMENS® or Rockwell® controller, for example. ROBUSTNESS. The consistent choice of durable components and the well-designed cabinet ensure long-term, reliable operation, even under extreme conditions. ENERGY-EFFICIENT. The new energy management system allows the energy consumption of the controller to be reduced by up to 95% in standby mode. The improved cooling concept, combined with a temperature-controlled fan, further reduces the power dissipation of the controller, while making operation considerably quieter.
