Shipyards and yellow-goods manufacturers deal with sprawling assembly areas, cramped weld joints inside hulls or chassis, and safety risks from prolonged manual welding in tight spaces. Traditional gantry-mounted robots can’t follow welders into nested cells—and corded cobots hit range limits fast.
Meet the UR Welding Solution with 40 m Reach
Universal Robots cobots are prized for flexibility and fast deployment—now take that versatility 40 meters further. Compatible with UR3e/UR5e/UR7e (OEM) robots, our Base-Mounted Range Extender attaches to the cobot’s base. Simply plug in the 40 m Range Extender Cable and clip on two active signal repeaters. Instantly, your cobot can weld deep inside ship compartments or traverse long chassis lines—without sacrificing speed, precision, or repeatability.
Key Benefits
- 40 m extended reach between robot and control box—no more dead zones.
- No performance trade-offs: same joint torque, repeatability, and cycle times as a standard setup.
- Plug-and-play integration: works out of the box with PolyScope 5 (PS 5.21+) and PolyScope X (PS 10.8+).
Ideal For
- Nested weld cells and tight joints inside hulls or chassis
- Long, distributed workstations across shipyards and yellow-goods lines
- Deployments where moving the control box isn’t practical
