Robots are used in industry today for many different tasks. They are meticulously programmed for highly effective and precise work performances. The LBR iiwa lightweight robot marks a new chapter in terms of interaction. It is able to feel its way towards objects, allows itself to be gently pushed away by people and withdraws from them automatically when touching them directly. The robot’s almost human capabilities are based on a complex concept. The iiwa is equipped with seven axis of which each has sensors of its own.

The LBR fulfils the highest safety regulations and therefore may work directly with people without the need for a safety screen. Alongside applications in the industry, this lightweight robot can also handle complex tasks in surgical medicine and even physiotherapeutic tasks in physical rehabilitation. With its innovative properties, the LBR iiwa offers new possibilities in various work environments – it embodies a friendly, interactively responsive assistant.
