Collaborative Robots (Cobots) from Universal Robots
The Universal Robot is the world’s leading collaborative robot, designed to work alongside humans. With over 50,000 installations worldwide and used in thousands of daily production environments, it’s the preferred choice for manufacturers.
In today’s competitive landscape, automation provides the necessary advantage. Whether facing increased competition, talent shortages, or challenges in low-volume, high-mix production, automation can be a game-changing solution. Cobots make automating and streamlining repetitive industrial processes easier than ever.
Since the introduction of the world’s first commercially viable collaborative robot in 2008, Universal Robot has developed a product portfolio including:
The UR range is compatible with a variety of end-of-arm tooling (EOAT), vision systems, software, accessories, and application kits in the UR+ ecosystem. This flexibility allows cobots to be used across diverse industries and tasks, making manufacturing processes faster, more efficient, and cost-effective through the collaboration of humans and robots.
Factories of the future aim to be more flexible and adaptable to changing market demands, allowing for quick shifts in production focus. All in a days work for a cobot!
