Pure white is associated with precision and cleanliness across basically all cultures. Maybe someday we’ll have robots in real working situations that develop a coating of grease and grime on them, but for now they only really exist in a lab and the lab wants everything pristine.
Real working robots are usually yellow or orange. KUKA may be the reason for this as it seems to be their brand color as well.
ABB robots that I’ve seen have all been orange too, but on their website it’s funny because they promote white ones, but I. The background they’re all orange.
I think the actual reason is that it looks scifi and sick.

Oh yeah I forgot about factory robot arms, those totally do get covered in a thick layerr of grime after running for a few hours/days/months.
And making them danger colored is important too. Since soft squish humans need to keep clear of them.
Wait… KUKA?!
(That’s means cunt in some Spanish speaking countries.)
Yup, but it’s a German company.
