The KUKA smartPAD: simply more freedom
The KUKA smartPAD teach pendant was designed to master even complex operating tasks easily. It can be deployed universally and is easy to operate, even for inexperienced users.
Ergonomic robot control panel with capacitive touch display
The control panel features various holding options for long and comfortable operation by both left-handed and right-handed operators.
KUKA smartPAD: relaxed robot operation in harsh industrial environments
The context-sensitive interface of the KUKA smartPAD only displays the options relevant at the moment of operation. Thanks to the intuitive operator guidance, less experienced and expert users alike can work quickly and efficiently with a minimum of training.
Advantages
Universal application
All KUKA robots running on KSS and Sunrise.OS can be operated in the desired language using the KUKA smartPAD. The KUKA smartPAD is hot-pluggable and can thus be connected and disconnected at any time.
Comfortable handling
Straps and handgrips that can be used with both hands greatly simplify operator control. An optional shoulder strap enables work without tiring the operator – particularly during time-intensive projects.
Simple robot jogging with ergonomic 6D mouse
The 6D mouse offers intuitive jogging and reorientation of the robot in three or six degrees of freedom.
Eight jog keys
Up to eight axes or external axes can be controlled directly using separate jog keys on the KUKA smartPAD with no switching required.
Integrated protectors
Integrated protectors offer the greatest possible protection in the event of falling. The scratch-resistant display and the IP 54 protection rating enable operation in harsh industrial environments.
Simple data transmission
Two easily accessible USB ports enable direct saving and loading of application programs and connection of other supported USB devices.
Efficient operation
Inputs are made quickly and easily via a brilliant, capacitive touch display with an 8.4" screen and high luminosity.
Maintenance-friendly design
A service flap enables simple exchange of the cable as required.

KUKA.KRL: the programming language of advanced robotics
KUKA Robot Language (abbreviated KRL) is regarded globally as a standard programming language. It is easy to learn and is perfectly suited to the wide-ranging options provided by KUKA robotics. The intuitive KUKA smartPAD can be used to create complex and customized programs for robot motion steps and tasks in a broad range of applications – both online and offline.
Incredibly efficient: programming with inline forms
The KR C4 controller provides inline forms for the fast, error-free programming of tasks and motion steps. They can be called via menus and are available as standard. This simplifies the programming of RoboTeams with up to six synchronized robots.
Customer-defined program modules
KUKA integrators can expand the library of available KUKA inline forms according to customer requirements. This leads to the creation of special applications which can be easily programmed for recurring tasks. A competitive advantage for system integrators: specially developed inline forms allow for unique solutions, optimally tailored to the companies which use them.
