These manipulators have incredible payload and precision in comparison to competitors from Rethink Robotics or Universal Robots. Software setup Kukas are connected to the lab's LAN with a static IP. WorkVisual runs on Windows PC but the robots can be controlled using ROS too. Location Brendan Iribe Center 432, Room 0116. Physical specifications Maximum Reach 800 mm Degrees of Freedom 7 Maximum Payload (Including End Effector) 7 kg Pose repeatability ±0.1 mm Reservation Kukas must be reserved before using.
