System role

This section explains what the product does and where it acts in the surrounding system.

Function: Regulates mechanical load balance for a KUKA robot assembly.
System position: Sits in the robot arm mechanical load path between support structure and motion components.
Upstream / inputs: Robot-arm load and support structure provide the mechanical inputs to the counterbalance.
Downstream / outputs: The counterbalance supplies balanced mechanical support to the robot motion assembly.
Limitations: Unknown: exact robot model, installation geometry, load rating, condition, compatibility, and current commercial status.
