KP1-MD single-axis modular drive unit
The KP1-MD single-axis modular drive unit enables simple and flexible implementation of customer-specific solutions. It is available with a payload capacity of 500, 750, 1,000, 1,500 or 2,000 kilograms.
Advantages of the KP1-MD modular drive unit:
Simple planning:
The KP1-MD makes planning even easier – with its identical loading height and hole pattern for all KP1-MDs up to 1,500 kg.
Modular design:
The modular structure of the positioners provides maximum flexibility for implementing individual customer solutions.
Compact construction:
The space-saving modular units of the KP1-MD single-axis positioner can even fit into confined installations.
Infinite rotation: Thanks to its infinitely rotating design, the KP1-MD is optimally positioned and can be used without limitation in any axis orientation.
Any installation position:
Deploy the KP1-MD in floor, wall, angle or ceiling-mounted positions without any restriction on the function or precision.
Integrated hollow shaft:
In the KP1-MD HW variant, the drive unit has a hollow shaft for routing energy and fluids.
Insulated face plate:
The face plate is electrically insulated as standard. This simplifies the integration process and improves the longevity of the positioner, particularly in the case of arc welding.
High welding power:
Weld with up to 500 A with a duty cycle of 100%.
