Evidence-based English reference page for 71-040-031 and its documented system role.

71-040-031: KUKA KRC2 counterbalancing system for KR125-200

Rebuilt from individual evidence

System role and integration

Unknown: evidence limits are source-limited.

Fresh evidence identifies 71-040-031 as KUKA KRC2 counterbalancing system for KR125-200.

KUKA describes the counterbalancing system as a hydropneumatic assembly between the rotating column and link arm that minimizes moments about axis 2.

System role: Regulates the mechanical load around axis 2 in the referenced KUKA robot mechanism. Sits mechanically between the robot's rotating column and link arm.

Unknown: pressure state, seal condition, exact robot variant, and installation history are not established by the consulted sources.

System role

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

Function
Regulates the mechanical load around axis 2 in the referenced KUKA robot mechanism.
System position
Sits mechanically between the robot's rotating column and link arm.
Upstream / inputs
Receives the mechanical load and dynamic movement forces generated around the robot's axis 2.
Downstream / outputs
Reduces the moment that the axis-2 drive mechanism must handle during motion and at rest.
Limitations
Unknown: pressure state, seal condition, exact robot variant, and installation history are not established by the consulted sources.

Evidence ledger

Facts, inferences, and unknowns are kept separate.

Facts

  • The exact-reference page identifies 71-040-031 as a KUKA KRC2 counterbalancing system for KR125-200.

    Confidence: medium

  • KUKA describes the counterbalancing system as a hydropneumatic assembly between the rotating column and link arm that minimizes moments about axis 2.

    Confidence: medium

Inferences

  • Regulates the mechanical load around axis 2 in the referenced KUKA robot mechanism.
