Well as killed as a robot can be, technically it was just his body that was destroyed since his mind lived on and even took over the body of Death's Head II. Eventually he returned in his own body and has continued to operate ever since. He has shown up in more recent times through SWORD, Iron Man, Spider-Man, etc., and then very recently in Nova. He's an intergalactic freelance peacekeeping agent (a bounty hunter really) so it's very easy to put him in different stories as a fun guest appearance with little explanation needed beyond he was hired to be there. Death's Head's greatest achievement comes from his long history of franchise-hopping which means that he has relevance to fans of multiple different licenses and not just Marvel comics. Death's Head II though seems to have stagnated and never really made any waves past the '90s, even then most people don't consider him an iconic Marvel character of that time. He did show up again in the late 2000s as a member of some British team (don't recall which right now) but that was fleeting and he wasn't the lead character or main draw of the book.
