- Compact 6–10 kg high-speed arms for tending, assembly, and packaging.
- LBR iiwa / iisy
- Torque-sensing collaborative arms for fenceless applications after risk assessment.
KUKA Controller Generations
KR C2
Legacy controller on pre-2010 arms — very affordable, with a large installed base, but confirm pendant (KCP2) and drive spares before standardizing.
KR C4
The used-market standard: smartPAD pendant, EtherCAT backbone, and broad option support. Most usable KUKA stock runs KR C4.
KR C5
Current generation on late-model arms; matches new KUKA production lines.

What to Check When Buying Used KUKA
- Confirm the KSS (KUKA System Software) version and installed technology packages (ArcTech, PalletTech, etc.)
- Check mastering with an EMD tool has been maintained; batteries left dead can mean re-mastering all axes
- KCP2 vs smartPAD pendants are not interchangeable — match the pendant to the controller
- On QUANTEC spot-welding units, inspect axis 1–3 gearboxes for backlash from high-duty cycles
KUKA — Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about buying used KUKA equipment
How much does a used KUKA robot cost?
KR AGILUS and CYBERTECH units typically run $12,000–$25,000, KR QUANTEC packages $20,000–$45,000, and heavy FORTEC systems $30,000–$70,000 depending on controller generation, hours, and reach. KR C2-era units cost significantly less than KR C4.
Is the KR C2 controller still viable?
For budget cells, yes — the installed base is huge and programming is well documented. But plan spares for the KCP2 pendant and drives, and expect to pay more for support than on KR C4 systems.
Do used KUKA robots include the smartPAD and cables?
Yes — unless a listing states otherwise, units ship complete with controller, pendant, and interconnect cables. Each listing's specifications note exactly what is included.
Can you source a specific KUKA model?
Yes. Tell us the KR model, payload, reach, and controller you need — we source from plant closures and auctions across North America and will quote availability.
