The robot software/firmware is updated when repaired. New parts are also updated to their newest versions (hardware/software). Therefore, updating PolyScope may be necessary when new parts are mounted.
If the robot/part(s) has been in contact with, or worked in environments, where dangerous chemicals or materials are present, it must be cleaned before shipment. If this is not possible, the shipment must be accompanied by an MSDA (Material Safety Data Sheet) in English and include instructions for cleaning. The amount of labor hours needed for cleaning will be billed at the standard rate.
If Universal Robots finds the robot/part unsafe to service, UR reserves the right to get the robot/part(s) cleaned or decline the case and send the part(s) back at customers expense.
