KUKA Robot KRC1032 - <object name> ERROR IN MEMORY MANAGER <error number> 1 2803

<object name> ERROR IN MEMORY MANAGER <error number> 1 2803

A critical memory management failure has occurred within the KRL program object (module, function, or variable) specified in the alarm message. The robot's memory manager encountered an internal error (2803) while attempting to allocate, deallocate, or access memory resources for the identified object. This prevents normal program execution and requires immediate intervention.

Common Causes

  • Insufficient available memory due to large data structures or arrays in the program
  • Memory fragmentation from repeated allocation and deallocation cycles
  • Corrupted program file or invalid object definition in the KRL source code
  • Stack overflow caused by excessive recursion or deeply nested function calls
  • Hardware memory failure or degradation in the robot controller's RAM

Troubleshooting Steps

  1. 1Note the specific object name mentioned in the alarm and review its definition for oversized arrays or data structures
  2. 2Reduce memory consumption by optimizing variable declarations, removing unnecessary global variables, or breaking large programs into smaller modules
  3. 3Clear the robot's program cache by performing a warm restart of the KRC controller (power cycle if necessary)
  4. 4Verify the KRL source code syntax and recompile the program to ensure no corrupted object definitions
  5. 5If the error persists, perform a memory diagnostic test using the KUKA diagnostic tools or system information menu
  6. 6Contact KUKA service if hardware failure is suspected or if memory issues continue after software-level troubleshooting
