Kassow Robots Launches the KR Pulse Ecosystem

The approach to which Kassow refers is the core idea of his 7-axis lightweight cobots: to enable industrial end customers to automate more flexibly than is possible with conventional cobots.

Copenhagen / Kastrup, March 18, 2024 ● Kassow Robots, manufacturer of easy-to-operate 7-axis lightweight robots, has launched its KR Pulse ecosystem. The aim of KR Pulse is to enable systems integrators and industrial end customers to seamlessly combine Kassow Robots cobots with end-of-arm tools and software solutions. Copenhagen-based Kassow Robots, majority owned by Bosch Rexroth, has added a new ecosystem section to their website.


"The launch of KR Pulse is a milestone for Kassow Robots," says Kristian Kassow, the company's founder, co-owner, and CEO. "With our ecosystem for peripheral devices and software, our end customers and partners can now implement cobot solutions even more quickly. The easy integration of our cobots into automation processes has been an essential part of our business concept since the beginning. KR Pulse further strengthens this approach."

The approach to which Kassow refers is the core idea of his 7-axis lightweight cobots: to enable industrial end customers to automate more flexibly than is possible with conventional cobots.

KR Pulse comprises components, application kits, engineering tools

KR Pulse is made up of three segments: components such as grippers or vision systems, application kits such as hardware for applications like welding or dispensing, and engineering tools to foster processes such as simulation.

Máté Olah pushes KR Pulse forward

Máté Oláh, Business Development Manager for Kassow Robots, who has put major effort into developing KR Pulse says: "The open innovation culture among technology suppliers is the key to creating solutions that align with a flexible production environment. KR Pulse is the ideal ecosystem for this environment."

In 2024, Kassow Robots will continue to drive its systematic expansion of the KR Pulse ecosystem with strong partner companies ready to join in the coming months.

C-Buns combine cobots with products from KR Pulse

Kassow Robots C-Buns (compatibility bundles) are one of the most important building blocks of the KR Pulse ecosystem. They enable the seamless functional integration of other products with Kassow Robots cobots (plug and play), a capability that is in high demand for end customers today. Everybody knows how convenient it is, when you're installing a printer at home, to be able to simply plug in the cord and activate the printer in the system settings. C-Buns allow plug and play functionality for partner solutions.
