KUKA KR500-R2830-F Servo Motor – High-Torque Drive Unit | KR QUANTEC Series
The KUKA KR500-R2830-F is the primary axis servo motor engineered for the KR QUANTEC heavy-payload robot platform — KUKA’s flagship series for automotive body-in-white, press-tending, and heavy-material handling applications. Procurement engineers sourcing replacement or spare drive units will find this listing covers three interchangeable part numbers that share the same mechanical and electrical interface:
- KR500-R2830-F — Base designation (P/N 00-170-721)
- KR500-R2830-FA100-170-721 — Assembly-level variant with integrated connector harness
- KR500-R2830-F-00-198-269 — Revised BOM revision (P/N 00-198-269)
All three variants are OEM-sourced from KUKA Roboter GmbH, Augsburg, Germany, and are fully compatible with KR500 R2830 robot arms running KR C4 / KR C5 controller generations.

Proven Application Environments
- Automotive Body-in-White (BIW) — spot welding, hemming, and press-tending lines requiring 500 kg axis torque
- Heavy Stamping & Forging — high-cycle press-loading with shock-load tolerance
- Foundry & Die-Casting — IP-rated variants for high-temperature, high-humidity environments
- Palletizing & Material Handling — end-of-line stacking with full 2,830 mm reach envelope
- Machine Tending — CNC lathe and machining center loading/unloading
- Aerospace Sub-Assembly — precision positioning of large structural components
Engineering Advantages
- OEM Dimensional Fidelity — drop-in replacement; no mechanical adaptation required for KR500 R2830 axis housings
- Dual P/N Coverage — single SKU covers both 00-170-721 and 00-198-269 revisions, eliminating cross-reference errors
- KR C4 / KR C5 Compatibility — validated against KUKA’s current and previous-generation controller firmware
- High Thermal Stability — designed for continuous-duty cycles in ambient temperatures up to 55 °C
- Integrated Encoder Interface — resolver/encoder pre-wired to KUKA connector standard; no field re-termination needed
- Traceable Serial Numbers — each unit ships with OEM serial plate for KUKA SmartPAD asset registration
System Architecture & Signal Flow
The KR500-R2830-F servo motor operates within KUKA’s KUKA System Bus (KSB) architecture. The signal chain is:
- KR C4/C5 Controller → motion command via EtherCAT / PROFINET
- KPP (KUKA Power Pack) → DC bus power distribution to axis amplifiers
- KSP (KUKA Servo Pack) → PWM drive signal to motor windings
- KR500-R2830-F Motor → mechanical torque output to gearbox input shaft
- Resolver / Encoder Feedback → position data returned to KSP for closed-loop control
This architecture ensures sub-millisecond position loop closure and full SafeOperation (SOP) compliance for collaborative zone monitoring.
Sourcing & Quality Verification

Technical FAQ
Q: Are P/N 00-170-721 and 00-198-269 interchangeable?
A: Yes. KUKA issued 00-198-269 as a BOM revision of 00-170-721 with no change to the mechanical or electrical interface. Both are direct replacements for the KR500 R2830 axis.
Q: Is this motor compatible with KR C2 controllers?
A: No. The KR500-R2830-F is designed for KR C4 and KR C5 generations. KR C2 systems use a different servo pack interface and are not compatible.
Q: Can you supply the matching KSP servo pack?
A: Yes. Contact us with your KR C4/C5 cabinet configuration and we will quote the matched KSP amplifier module.
Q: What is the typical lead time?
A: In-stock units ship within 2 business days. Ex-stock sourcing typically requires 7–15 business days depending on origin warehouse.
Q: Do you provide KUKA robot programming or commissioning support?
A: We specialize in parts supply. For commissioning, we can refer you to KUKA-certified system integrators in your region.
