FAQ

Frequently asked questions

How much does the KUKA LBR iisy 6 R1300 cost? +

The KUKA LBR iisy 6 R1300 price is normally available by quote rather than one fixed global price. The final cost depends on country, configuration, accessories, freight, taxes, warranty, training, integration and support.

A useful comparison separates the robot hardware from tooling, software, commissioning and site work, because two offers using the same model name can include very different packages. For assembly, machine tending, handling, inspection, packaging and flexible manufacturing, choose the complete delivered and deployed solution rather than the lowest headline figure. You can request a KUKA LBR iisy 6 R1300 quote through Anton Robots to compare price, lead time, included equipment and after-sales support.

Build the budget around the complete project, not only the advertised robot. Confirm hardware, required accessories, software or service fees, freight, taxes, installation, commissioning, training, preventive maintenance, spare parts and support. Ask the supplier to identify one-time and recurring charges and to state what happens if the site, workflow or configuration changes.

What is included when you buy the KUKA LBR iisy 6 R1300? +

A typical KUKA LBR iisy 6 R1300 package or deployment may include the core robot and standard operating hardware, but scope varies by supplier, region and configuration. Before buying, request a written packing list and confirm whether the offer includes:

  • LBR iisy 6 R1300 robot arm
  • KR C5 micro or specified compatible controller
  • Robot cables and standard connection hardware
  • iiQKA.OS2 software and required licences
  • Specified teach and operator interface
  • Selected end effector, vision, stand, or safety equipment
  • Commissioning, training, freight, warranty, and support if included

Two quotations can use the same model name while including different software, accessories, commissioning, support or warranty. You can request an itemised package quote through Anton Robots. Request an itemised bill of materials or statement of work and do not assume that accessories shown in demonstrations are standard. The supplier should separate included hardware, software, licences, installation, site integration, training, consumables, maintenance and optional equipment. Also confirm who owns each task before delivery, what the acceptance test covers and which costs remain the buyer’s responsibility.

You can request a package quote through Anton Robots to compare configuration, delivery, integration, training, warranty and support.

What is the payload and reach of the KUKA LBR iisy 6 R1300? +

The KUKA LBR iisy 6 R1300 payload is 6 kg, and its maximum reach is 1300 mm. Payload includes the part, gripper, tool, adapter, cables and wrist-mounted sensors. The long reach suits machines, conveyors and cells with multiple access points, but a layout study should still check joint limits, tool orientation, collision clearance and every required pose.

If the complete wrist load approaches 6 kg, compare the 11 kg R1300 or another larger cobot. You can request payload and reach sizing through Anton Robots. Published specifications are normally measured under defined test conditions and can change with payload, route, speed, software, environment and accessory configuration. Validate the requirement using the complete working system and keep operating margin rather than sizing directly to the headline maximum. Ask for a demonstration or application study using representative loads, routes, tools and duty cycles before approving the purchase. For assembly, machine tending, handling, inspection, packaging and flexible manufacturing, keep the supplier’s written assumptions with the final quotation and compare them with the actual site requirements.

Is the KUKA LBR iisy 6 R1300 good for machine tending? +

Yes. The LBR iisy 6 R1300 is well suited to machine tending when the component, gripper and tooling remain within 6 kg and the 1300 mm reach covers the machine. A complete cell may also need part presentation, an automatic door, PLC communication, a stand and safety equipment. Check access through the machine opening, chips, coolant, cycle time and whether IP54 is adequate. The cobot arm is only one part of the system.

Contact Anton Robots to review the robot, gripper, machine interface and safety scope together. Choose by matching the actual requirement rather than selecting the best-known model. Compare payload or capacity, reach or route, environment, autonomy, integration, support, total cost and the evidence that the solution can achieve the required workflow. A short site trial or application review is usually more valuable than comparing headline specifications in isolation. This protects the buyer from a low headline price that excludes the equipment or services needed to make the system operational.

You can request a package quote through Anton Robots to compare configuration, delivery, integration, training, warranty and support.

Can the KUKA LBR iisy 6 R1300 be used for pick and place and packaging? +

Yes. KUKA lists pick and place, packaging, order fulfilment and material handling among LBR iisy applications. The correct end effector depends on the product: parallel grippers for rigid parts, vacuum tooling for cartons and custom fingers for irregular items. Throughput depends on travel distance, payload, acceleration, grip time, vision and part presentation. Random picking may require cameras, lighting and recognition software.

Anton Robots can help quote the cobot, gripper, vision and integration as one package. Choose by matching the actual requirement rather than selecting the best-known model. Compare payload or capacity, reach or route, environment, autonomy, integration, support, total cost and the evidence that the solution can achieve the required workflow. A short site trial or application review is usually more valuable than comparing headline specifications in isolation. The final decision should be based on a verified use case, total operational cost and accountable after-sales support.

Can the KUKA LBR iisy 6 R1300 be used for welding? +

KUKA positions the LBR iisy platform for simple to moderately complex MIG/MAG welding. A complete deployment needs a power source, torch, wire feeder, cable routing, fixtures, fume extraction, process programming and an application-specific safety concept. The 6 kg payload must include the torch and wrist hardware, and the reach must cover the full seam. Ask the integrator to validate duty cycle, seam access, spatter exposure and weld quality.

Request a complete welding-cell quote rather than purchasing only the arm. Choose by matching the actual requirement rather than selecting the best-known model. Compare payload or capacity, reach or route, environment, autonomy, integration, support, total cost and the evidence that the solution can achieve the required workflow. A short site trial or application review is usually more valuable than comparing headline specifications in isolation.

You can request a package quote through Anton Robots to compare configuration, delivery, integration, training, warranty and support.

Can the KUKA LBR iisy 6 R1300 be used for palletizing? +

The robot can perform light palletizing when cartons and the gripper remain within its 6 kg payload and the stack fits the 1300 mm reach. It may suit small boxes, trays and low-volume end-of-line cells. Heavy cartons, tall pallets and high throughput normally require a larger cobot, lifting column or industrial robot. Check product weight, pallet pattern, stack height, cycle time and vacuum-tool weight before selecting the model. Choose by matching the actual requirement rather than selecting the best-known model.

Compare payload or capacity, reach or route, environment, autonomy, integration, support, total cost and the evidence that the solution can achieve the required workflow. A short site trial or application review is usually more valuable than comparing headline specifications in isolation. For assembly, machine tending, handling, inspection, packaging and flexible manufacturing, keep the supplier’s written assumptions with the final quotation and compare them with the actual site requirements.

You can request a package quote through Anton Robots to compare configuration, delivery, integration, training, warranty and support.

How is the KUKA LBR iisy 6 R1300 programmed? +

The robot uses iiQKA.OS2, with guided workflows, templates and engineering tools. Hand guiding supports teaching and process adjustment, while iiQWorks can support planning, simulation, offline programming and virtual commissioning. Advanced projects can integrate PLCs, fieldbus, external HMIs, sensors and machine vision. Confirm required licences, controller, programming interface and training in the quote, especially if staff will modify programs or recover faults.

Confirm software access for the exact commercial package before ordering. Ask which APIs, SDKs, licences, cloud services, fleet tools and developer features are included, which require approval or recurring fees, and who supports integrations after commissioning. Cybersecurity, user permissions, data ownership, update policy and compatibility with the buyer’s existing systems should be agreed in writing. This protects the buyer from a low headline price that excludes the equipment or services needed to make the system operational.

You can request a package quote through Anton Robots to compare configuration, delivery, integration, training, warranty and support.

Can the KUKA LBR iisy 6 R1300 work safely beside people? +

The LBR iisy includes joint torque sensing and integrated safety functions, but the completed application is not automatically safe. Risk depends on speed, tool, payload, pinch points, surrounding machinery and the workpiece. KUKA states that fenceless operation is possible based on risk assessment. The integrator should validate stopping behaviour, safe limits, emergency stops and applicable standards. A sharp tool, hot component or heavy fixture may still require guarding.

Safety must be assessed for the completed application, not just the base robot. Review moving parts, carried objects, tools, traffic, access, emergency stops, loss of communications, cybersecurity and recovery after a fault. Document operating limits, train authorised users and validate the safeguards under the standards and workplace requirements that apply at the deployment location. The final decision should be based on a verified use case, total operational cost and accountable after-sales support.

You can request a package quote through Anton Robots to compare configuration, delivery, integration, training, warranty and support.

Where can the KUKA LBR iisy 6 R1300 be mounted? +

The LBR iisy 6 R1300 supports floor, wall, ceiling and angled mounting. This can improve access to machines and conveyors or reduce cell footprint. Mounting position changes the support structure, cable routing, reach study and service access. The base must be rigid enough to maintain accuracy and withstand dynamic forces. Confirm the approved mounting orientation, fastening requirements and controller configuration before installation.

Before purchase or deployment, document the intended task, operating environment, required performance, interfaces, implementation owner, support model and acceptance criteria. Ask the supplier to confirm these points against the exact KUKA LBR iisy 6 R1300 configuration rather than relying on a generic product description.

You can request a package quote through Anton Robots to compare configuration, delivery, integration, training, warranty and support. Ask for written confirmation of the exact KUKA LBR iisy 6 R1300 configuration, commercial terms, delivery scope and responsibilities before placing an order or approving a deployment.

Is the KUKA LBR iisy 6 R1300 suitable for cleanrooms or washdown? +

The standard 6 R1300 is IP54, which does not make it a washdown robot. It should not be assumed suitable for high-pressure cleaning, outdoor rain or corrosive environments. KUKA offers cleanroom versions for selected LBR iisy variants, but the exact model and required cleanroom class must be confirmed. The environmental rating of the complete cell is limited by its least-protected component, including grippers, sensors and cables. Environmental suitability applies to the complete configured system, including sensors, tools, connectors, chargers, docking equipment and third-party computers.

Confirm the official rating for the exact version and define limits for water, dust, temperature, chemicals, sunlight, floor condition and storage. Test representative routes and weather conditions before relying on the robot for a production or safety-critical mission. For assembly, machine tending, handling, inspection, packaging and flexible manufacturing, keep the supplier’s written assumptions with the final quotation and compare them with the actual site requirements.

You can request a package quote through Anton Robots to compare configuration, delivery, integration, training, warranty and support.

Should I buy the LBR iisy 6 R1300 or a larger LBR iisy model? +

Choose the 6 R1300 when 6 kg of complete wrist payload is sufficient and the long reach is valuable. Consider the 11 R1300 when the part, gripper and tooling need more capacity. Other LBR iisy variants trade reach for payload. Compare total load, inertia, cycle time, mounting, workspace and future product changes rather than selecting only by headline payload. Anton Robots can help compare the family with other cobots.

Choose by matching the actual requirement rather than selecting the best-known model. Compare payload or capacity, reach or route, environment, autonomy, integration, support, total cost and the evidence that the solution can achieve the required workflow. A short site trial or application review is usually more valuable than comparing headline specifications in isolation. This protects the buyer from a low headline price that excludes the equipment or services needed to make the system operational.

You can request a package quote through Anton Robots to compare configuration, delivery, integration, training, warranty and support.

What grippers, vision and integration equipment does the LBR iisy need? +

Typical options include electric or pneumatic grippers, vacuum tools, screwdrivers, welding equipment, cameras, lighting, feeders, conveyors, stands, safety scanners and PLC interfaces. Confirm payload, inertia, power, air, communication protocol, cable routing and software compatibility. The quotation should separate KUKA hardware, third-party tooling and integrator engineering so the buyer knows who supports each component. Use the request a quote form for an itemised package.

Confirm software access for the exact commercial package before ordering. Ask which APIs, SDKs, licences, cloud services, fleet tools and developer features are included, which require approval or recurring fees, and who supports integrations after commissioning. Cybersecurity, user permissions, data ownership, update policy and compatibility with the buyer’s existing systems should be agreed in writing. The final decision should be based on a verified use case, total operational cost and accountable after-sales support.
