Description

Patented technology lets operators with no programming experience quickly set up and operate the cobots with intuitive, 3D visualization. Simply move the robot arm to desired waypoints or touch the arrow keys on the easy-to-use touchscreen tablet. Universal Robots has revolutionized cobot set-up, reducing typical robotic deployment measured in weeks to a matter of hours. The average set-up time is only half a day. The out-of-box experience for an untrained operator to unpack the cobot, mount it, and program the first simple task is typically less than an hour. Now you can replace human operators in dirty, dangerous, and dull jobs to reduce repetitive strain and accidental injuries, allowing human to complete more complex tasks.
