The Hot Wire – your hotline to robotics

Fun and excitement – while also learning about robots – that is the KUKA Hot Wire. In this game of dexterity, the challenge is to guide a ring along a thin, bent metal tube from start to finish, without the ring touching the tube. An alarm sounds whenever the wire touches. A short briefing is all it takes, and anyone can test their skill with the easy-to-use KUKA Control Panel. In this task, the KUKA robot shows just how sensitively it can be moved and how simple it is to operate.

The Hot Wire can also be used as hands-on experience for the introduction to robot programming. How about a programming competition in which the contestants have to get from start to finish as quickly as possible?
