Enhanced flexibility and customization
Developing a URCap allows you to tailor the robot’s functionality to meet specific application requirements. Whether it's integrating specialized tools, creating custom motion sequences, or developing intuitive user interfaces, URCaps provide the flexibility to customize the robot’s capabilities.
Integration of third-party devices
URCaps make it easier to integrate third-party devices and peripherals with UR robots. This can be crucial for applications that require specific sensors, actuators, or other hardware components to be controlled and monitored seamlessly.
Improved user experience
With URCaps, you can create custom user interfaces that simplify the operation of complex robotic processes. This can lead to improved productivity and reduced training times, making it easier for operators to use the robots effectively.
Enhanced automation capabilities
By extending the functionality of UR robots with URCaps, you can automate more complex tasks and processes. This can lead to increased efficiency, reduced downtime, and improved overall performance of your automation system.
Development efficiency
The URCap SDK provides API tools, libraries, and documentation that streamline the development process. This allows developers to quickly create and deploy custom solutions, reducing development time and costs.
Examples of URCap applications
Custom Grippers: Integrate and control custom-designed grippers directly from the Polyscope interface.
Vision Systems: Add support for vision systems to enable advanced functionalities like object recognition and inspection.
Specialized Motion Control: Develop custom motion control algorithms for applications requiring precise movements.
Operator Guidance Systems: Create interfaces that guide operators through complex assembly or inspection tasks.
