On June 13, 2024, the 17th (2024) SNEC International Solar Photovoltaic and Smart Energy (Shanghai) Conference and Exhibition officially opened. KUKA Mobile Robots brought its star product KMP 600i and the new omnidirectional heavy-duty AMR KMP 3000i to the NH-A350 KUKA booth to meet everyone at this authoritative photovoltaic industry event.
At this exhibition, KUKA took "Practicing Green Intelligence and Drawing Photovoltaic Intelligent Manufacturing" as its theme, forming a robot + data-driven intelligent solution to help the photovoltaic industry upgrade its intelligent manufacturing. Focusing on the full-process intelligent manufacturing and smart logistics industry system solutions for the photovoltaic industry, KUKA mobile robot experts conducted in-depth discussions and exchanges with guests on site.
At 10:30 am, John Yu, product planning manager of KUKA Mobile Robots, and Solon Jing, program planning manager, attended the launch ceremony and unveiled the mystery of KUKA's new omnidirectional heavy-duty AMR KMP 3000i.
Vic Yu, product manager of KUKA Mobile Robots, gave everyone a detailed introduction to the KMP 3000i, sharing the outstanding advantages of this omnidirectional heavy-duty AMR, such as high reliability, high traffic capacity, high-power charging, and compact size. He also demonstrated its actual operational needs in scenes such as photovoltaic crystal rod handling, lithium battery PACK lines, automobile manufacturing stamping and welding lines, and construction machinery parts handling, showing the high adaptability of this product in these scenes.

In the photovoltaic industry, it can realize the autonomous transportation and handling of silicon rods.Seven highlights:High traffic capacity: omnidirectional movement, flexible and efficientAll-dimensional protection: multi-level safety, all-dimensional protectionHigh-power charging: contact and autonomous induction charging are both optionalMulti-fusion navigation: fusion navigation, precise positioningReliable mechanism: heavy-load lifting, stronger adaptationCan support linkage: double-vehicle linkage, double loadEasy maintenance design: humanized design, worry-free maintenanceOmnidirectional movement, flexible and efficientKMP 3000i is equipped with an innovative differential wheel unit, which can achieve omnidirectional movement and achieve a lower chassis and greater load. It has high traffic capacity, is fast and flexible, can reach a maximum speed of 1.2m/s, walking accuracy can reach ±30mm (SLAM), stopping accuracy can reach ±10mm (SLAM), ±5mm (QR), and can actively move sideways to avoid obstacles.
Multi-level safety, full-dimensional protection
KMP 3000i achieves active protection through dual laser radar 360° coverage, 3D camera stereo obstacle avoidance and sound and light reminder, and achieves passive protection through 360° safety touch edge and emergency stop button. It combines the algorithm of the main navigation and dispatching system, and calculates the point, area and space in real time to achieve obstacle stopping and obstacle bypassing, so as to achieve more comprehensive and timely safety protection.
Both contact and autonomous inductive charging are optionalKMP 3000i can realize high-power contact charging, and use the adjustable height telescopic head to achieve 6000W high-power charging; it can also be equipped with wireless inductive ground charging, which can be charged synchronously under the workstation during operation, realizing 3000W high-power 2H fast wireless charging, which is wear-free and safer, and more suitable for flammable environments.
Fusion navigation, precise positioningBased on fusion positioning technology, KMP 3000i uses the same map to record LiDAR, QR code, reflector/reflective sticker information, realizing the integration of multiple navigation methods, with strong environmental adaptability, stable positioning in industrial handling scenes, can adapt to higher environmental change rates, and has higher navigation credibility and robustness.
Load lifting, stronger adaptabilityAs a heavyweight mobile robot, KMP 3000i has a rated load of 3000kg and is a veritable intelligent strongman. At the same time, it is equipped with a safe and reliable hydraulic scissor-type lifting mechanism, equipped with a through-type lifting plate, a lifting stroke of 100mm, and can achieve a lifting cycle of 20s.
Dual-vehicle linkage, double the loadKMP 3000i has the ability to coordinate with two vehicles, with series or parallel functions. Through load fixation or soft connection, it can achieve a maximum load of 6000kg, improving its flexibility in large-scale transportation.
Easy-maintenance design, worry-free maintenanceKMP 3000i adopts a compact small volume design, with a body specification of 1900x1200x390mm, and multiple modules can be easily disassembled and assembled. The modular touch edge design is applied to realize side-drawn battery replacement, and it has a forklift lifting position, which is easier to monitor and maintain the whole vehicle. It has good human-computer interaction, and the 18° tilt display makes human-computer interaction more comfortable and convenient.
