that's like the controversial point of kraut. kraftwerk's music is hugely influenced by the movement (until they started doing singles, really) and their music might have never sounded like that had they started somewhere else in the middle of another scene, but they did speak against it and denied association with any of those bands (maybe they wanted the critics to give them good reviews or maybe they just hated labels). so...
i don't know, musicalwise, yeah they are kraut; but if you ask them, they'll probably tell you that all those bands broke up or cheesed out and they are still going strong, whatever.
