Touch screen. Graphics support. Flexible interaction. The more powerful the capabilities of the robots become, the more intuitive user interfaces for operator control of the robots are pushed into the foreground. The new KUKA smartPAD brilliantly demonstrates, on a large, high-resolution, antireflection touch screen, how robots can be operated intuitively.

Operations are presented to the user in a transparent manner by means of intelligent, interactive dialogs. The user always has at his disposal precisely the operator control elements that he actually needs at any given moment. With the aim of focusing attention on what is important, so that users can work more intuitively and thus more easily, quickly and efficiently. Simply smarter in every respect.

THE FEATURES AT A GLANCE

Simple, intuitive operator control via touch panel with context-sensitive floating windows Separate jog keys for direct control of eight axes / external axes – without switching Efficient programming with 6D mouse and ergonomic keypad in touch panel Systematic further development of the tried-and-tested KUKA operator control and programming concept Only little training required Direct saving and loading of configurations via USB port on the smartPAD itself Hot-pluggable. If the smartPAD is not required, it can be simply unplugged. High screen resolution and generously-sized antireflection display for work that is easy on the eyes
