Autonomous mobile platform for flexible manufacturing

Optimize your production flow with high-capacity, autonomous mobility that streamlines material transport while navigating complex layouts, enhancing operational efficiency and flexibility in dynamic manufacturing environments.

Autonomously Maneuvers and Transports Heavy Loads

The KMP 1500 from KUKA is an omnidirectional mobile platform designed to revolutionize logistics in manufacturing. Featuring the advanced KUKA omniMove drive technology, it maneuvers precisely in any direction, even within confined spaces. Supporting applications across automotive, electronics, and consumer goods industries, the KMP 1500 efficiently transports items, from car bodies to warehouse inventory, with a payload of up to 1,500 kg. Integrated with the KUKA Navigation Solution, it autonomously navigates without physical guides, enhancing flexibility and reducing setup times. The platform operates driverlessly and ensures safety with 360-degree laser scanner monitoring and multiple emergency stops. Equipped with a rechargeable Li-ion battery, it offers up to three hours of operation per charge, further extendable with optional features. Robust and customizable, the KMP 1500 is engineered to seamlessly integrate into existing processes, providing a scalable solution to meet diverse manufacturing needs.
