WORKSTATION FIT

Is KR007B Right for Your Workstation?

Start with how your tool is used and what your process needs. KR007B is worth evaluating when your workstation requires high-torque support, balanced tool handling, or optional fastening-point verification.

High-Torque Tightening

Your workstation needs to absorb substantial reaction torque during fastening. Evaluate the required torque rating together with tool orientation, movement range, and mounting conditions to select a suitable KR007B configuration.

Heavy Tools and Repetitive Handling

Operators repeatedly hold and reposition a heavy tightening tool. A spring balancer matched to the combined weight of the tool and its accessories helps reduce handling effort while the arm supports the tightening operation.

Multiple Fastening Points with Position Verification

Your process needs to check whether the tool has reached the intended fastening point. Consider optional XY or XYZ detection with a compatible controller to support point verification and the required tightening sequence.

Confirm Your Workstation Requirements Before Selection

Torque capacity is only one part of the decision. Share the following information so KURAN can assess the arm configuration, tool support, installation, and any position-control requirements.

  • Required Torque
  • Tool Model & Total Supported Weight
  • Fastening-Point Layout
  • Required Reach & Travel
  • Mounting Space & Orientation
  • Position-Control Requirements

DESIGN & PRACTICAL BENEFITS

KR007B Design Features and Practical Benefits

See how the KR007B structure supports your tightening tool, manages reaction torque, and accommodates optional position sensing for controlled assembly processes.

KURAN KR007B structure diagram showing the spring balancer, horizontal guide shafts, optional angle sensor and draw-wire sensor

Robust Linear Structure

The column, horizontal guide shafts, and fixed base form a sturdy support structure. During tightening, the arm transfers reaction torque from the tool to the mounting structure, helping reduce the force the operator needs to resist.

Tool Weight Balancing

A spring balancer is matched to the combined weight of the tightening tool and its accessories. Proper balancing helps reduce the effort of holding and repositioning the tool during repetitive fastening operations.

Customizable Horizontal Arm Length

Horizontal arm length can be customized to suit your fastening-point layout and available space. Required reach, supported load, and reaction torque are reviewed together before the configuration is confirmed.

Optional Position Detection

Sensor-equipped configurations use position sensors to provide tool-position data. When connected to a compatible workstation controller, this data can support fastening-point verification and tightening sequence control. Sensors are optional.

Explore KURAN’s KR007B application video for engine assembly. Use this example to discuss the tool movement, working range, and installation arrangement required at your workstation.

  • Tool Movement and Working Reach

    Consider how the tool needs to travel between fastening points and whether the required movement fits your workpiece and fixture layout.

  • Tool Support and Handling

    Assess the tool connection and balancing requirements for your tightening tool, socket, adapter, and other fitted accessories.

  • Workstation Installation

    Compare the available mounting space, fastening direction, and operator access with the arrangement your own workstation needs.

Share your tool model, torque requirement, and workstation photos or video. KURAN can help evaluate a suitable KR007B configuration for your application.

CONFIGURATION OPTIONS

Choose Your KR007B Configuration

Start with whether your workstation needs mechanical support alone or position-based fastening verification. Then select the detection dimensions and signal interface to match your process and controller.

N

No Position Sensor

Select a non-sensing configuration when the arm is needed for reaction torque control and balanced tool handling. This version does not provide position data for fastening-point verification.

Consider this when Your workstation requires mechanical tool support without position-based process control.

M

XY Position Detection

Select XY detection when your process needs to distinguish fastening locations in a plane. Position data can be evaluated by a compatible controller against taught fastening points.

Consider this when Fastening points can be identified using XY position, without a separate height check.

MZ

XYZ Position Detection

Select XYZ detection when vertical position also matters. The additional detection dimension helps the controller distinguish fastening zones that cannot be reliably separated by XY position alone.

Consider this when Your process needs to distinguish fastening points at different heights or verify vertical tool position.

Match Detection to Your Fastening-Point Layout

Choose detection dimensions around the actual fastening points, tool movement, and required verification zones. A higher number of detection dimensions is useful only when the process needs that additional information.

Your Workstation RequirementConfiguration to EvaluateWhat to Confirm
Reaction torque control and tool weight support, without position verificationN — No position sensor Torque rating, total supported weight, reach, and mounting conditions.
Fastening-point recognition using planar positionM — XY detection Whether the taught XY zones can distinguish all required fastening points.
Point recognition that also requires vertical position verificationMZ — XYZ detection Required height discrimination, vertical travel, and controller support.
Position detection requires system integration. Sensors provide position data. Fastening-point recognition, tightening authorization, and sequence management require a compatible workstation controller and suitable tool interfaces. Position sensors do not measure tightening torque.

Understand the KR007B Model Code

Model codes identify the arm structure, position detection, torque rating, dimensional variant, and sensor signal interface. Select the signal type according to the controller being integrated.

KR007B Frequently Asked Questions

Find answers about KR007B configurations, position detection, controller integration, and the information needed to select a suitable model.

Both KR007 and KR007B are high-torque linear reaction arms with catalog ratings up to 1000 Nm and spring balancers matched to tool weight. Their mechanical layouts and installation dimensions differ.

The catalog lists KR007 in non-sensing configurations, while KR007B offers no sensor, XY detection, and XYZ detection options. KR007B also has non-sensing versions, so it should not be treated simply as a KR007 with sensors added.
