World Strongest Robot - KUKA KR1000 Titan

[RealLifeFrodo]

This is def not the worlds strongest. As a motoman employee, we have robots much bigger that this that can take bigger payloads then this robot will ever see. MOTOMAN RULES!

[wuslon70]

@RealLifeFrodo Uhm... Which type of motoman handles over 800kg?

[kdc43]

This robot SUCKS....NYUK,Nyuk,yuk. Cuz it has all them suckers. Actually, the movement of this is quite smooth, graceful, and precise.

[TheUntrueFantasy]

OMG techoligy is taking our jobs, they took are jobs, took our jobs. Look up the ,,zeitgeist Movement,, or ,, The venus project,,

peace :)

[spencertron88]

That's not big enough for me. I want to see a giant robotic arm the size of a building that can lift up a HOUSE!!

AAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!

[XTCMatrix]

GO KUKA, GO KUKA, GO!

[deaddreamKUTY]

easy program

[xbris117]

Love how it snatches the glass as it's rolling back. Doesn't even wait for it to stop!

[xxfm12xx]

@xbris117 Thats cos it prob wont stop until it hits the floor.

[EvoTR]

amazing.. german power.. :)

[Giospe]

incredible...

Contact IHS Automation on 01606 598111 for more information on the Titan.

[yuriy12772]

not the worlds strongest ill tell you that!

[plasticboy81]

wow! quality made in germany,

[StartbahnWest]

In some way it looks cute.

[Sathyamurthy1581]

Though it has 1000Kg payload, it is limited on its reach. Try Fanuc 1200Kg payload and Nachi 700kg payload robots.

[rafkristoff]

Strongest ROBOT? NOT ANYMORE....FANUC is the strongest ROBOT as of 2009....

[mushioov]

Skynet!

[014087]

squeaky

[HardcoreCline]

Thats the biggest end effector on a robot i have ever seen!

[elvisjonesus]

wonder how much glass was lost while proving the programming ?

[Speed796]

I bet a whole lot.

[tinram745]

no shit, eh.

[xEquals3x]

@elvisjonesus I guess they must have used a plastic Non breakable glass instead.

PWNED. DX

[rodstartube]

@elvisjonesus probably was tested with metal instead of glass

[classicrockneverdies]

yo guys i'm in a tight spot. whats the name for a robotic engine. just those things that spin around. there just like little generators that have a spinning componant. I want to say there called like vorticers or something. i need help!

[petradog409]

alternators or servos

[phoenix15477]

servo

[4plastics411com]

Robotics continues to be a primary weapon against the cost of labor...KUDOS!

[ydna2]

I wonder the weight of that giant piece of glass. Guessing by the number of suckers being used, it probably weighs around 240lbs or 110 kilos (assuming they're getting around 10 pounds of vacuum each).

[tbxa1984bc]

Ford Germany primary uses KUKA and some Comau or ABB-robots.

[emforty2]

kuka is german btw

but detroit mainly uses japan robots

[emforty2]

Japan Made robots are making cars at GM Ford Chrysler

they are waaaay ahead in machine tools go to JPL and NASA and find them there too !!

[orangrape]

wow,strong machine.human cannot win the machine.

[ydna2]

I'd like to see a size reference point nearby to the robot, like a person, to see how large it is...

[ChrislovesBayern]

tja, marttigood, i sag bloß, morgens um halb 10 in polen, wer hat mein knoppers gestohlen. Die wären vielleicht scho schneller, aber warscheinlich wird die platte kaputt sein oder gestohlen (polaken eben). wer die arbeit gern macht, jeden tag, jede stunde immer wieder die fast 1 tonnen schwere platten rumzumziehen, viel spaß. i bin selber bei KUKA und mir is augfallen dass roboter eigentlich nur die arbeit machen wofür polen, sry, zu dumm sin oda kein bock für so niedrig bezahlte arbeit haben.

[TheKenshi]

You're right. I got every word that you said. LOL

[djalbino99]

Ja, stimmt. Menschen brauchen arbeit... und die roboter nichts.

[djalbino99]

Its nice to know that millions of dollars is being spent on this stuff, so factories no longer have to employ people, and there are less jobs, thus increasing unemployment. YAY!

[ichigokarasu]

Yeah they should really develop better ways for internet forum trolls and general misanthropes to contribute even less to society than they already do. On topic, yeah I'd much rather see a bunch of jobs get outsourced to people that get exploited for 4 cents an hour than have a robot doing the work anyway....

[djalbino99]

Yeh but its the best they can get....

I love the technology dont get me wrong, but people need jobs. Its better to have 4 cents worth of food than none at all. However, from the employers point of view, F*CK YEAH!!!!!

[marttigood]

2 guys from poland make this operation in 36 sec.(glass master and glass amateur)

KUKA is not the best....

[mrmaninthesky]

2 guys from poland can't do it 24 hrs a day, 7 days a week

[TheKenshi]

Yeah, but you don't need to pay a salary to the robot.
