A journey through time
KUKA has reinvented itself time and again throughout its 125-year history. Browse through the formative milestones of our history here, with innovations from the Swabian travel typewriter to the Italian garbage truck:
Under the magnifying glass: 125 years of KUKA
A company, always on the move: In 1898, KUKA was founded in Augsburg as an acetylene gas plant - and has since grown into an international technology group. We have used the anniversary as an opportunity to look at KUKA from all sides.

KUKA robots are real VIPs...
Our technologies from the Robotics division are fascinating - and time and again make it onto the world's big stages as leading actors. The latest example: our robots are on tour in Europe with the Belgian superstar Stromae.
...and meet political greats from all over the world
Not only the former US President Barack Obama or the former German Chancellor Angela Merkel already took a closer look at our robots.
Members of the European royal families, such as Prince Frederik of Denmark - shown here with a sensitive lightweight robot for medical applications - have also been fascinated by KUKA technologies.
5G to IoT: products for megatrends of our time
Megatrends are powerful and they are transforming the economy and society in a sustainable way. They give rise to new structures and business models, and are an indispensable tool in strategic corporate planning. The Internet of Things is just as much a megatrend as artificial intelligence, new types of connectivity or digital transformation. And KUKA? With its solutions for customers around the globe, KUKA is helping to shape these megatrends - in plant engineering as well as in the product business.
Just an empty shell: What would KUKA be without employees?
KUKA's most important success factor? The people behind the technologies. More than 15,000 employees in around 50 countries work on KUKA's products, solutions and innovations. And with our outstanding young talents, we don't need to worry about the future. For the birthday, there was a special greeting from KUKAns around the world:
Ready for the next 125 years?
You bet! The world is changing - and KUKA offers innovations and solutions for the challenges of our time, whether it's a shortage of skilled workers, automation for everyone or affordable and sustainable housing. #KUKA125 Keep on Moving!
