The KUKA GL 1000 (KUKA GL) is a linear units, rated for 1000 kg payload, ±0.05 mm repeatability.
What we see on this model in the field
On high-cycle pick-and-place duty we most often see gearbox wear on axes 4-6 and connector fatigue in the base. The KR C5 micro controller is robust, but check the KCB cable routing if the robot was ceiling-mounted.
Buying or selling one?
If you're buying, demand the serial number and operating hours, then verify payload and reach against the official specs in the table above. If you're selling, we buy used KUKA robots of all series — on-site appraisal, prompt settlement.
