Universal Robots offers multiple robot families to support everything from everyday workbench automation to demanding industrial applications and future‑ready automation. Each family is purpose‑built, while sharing a common platform that simplifies deployment, operation and long‑term scale.
The UR Series is our heavy‑duty, collaborative capable robot family, designed for higher payloads, extended reach, and robust performance in demanding industrial environments. It is well suited for applications that require strength, speed, and consistent operation across challenging production conditions.
The e‑Series is our proven, lightweight robot family, designed for compact portability and reliable performance across a wide range of industrial applications. It offers a versatile starting point for automation, with the precision and safety needed for everyday production tasks.
Universal Robots deliver high performance with less mass and are up to 70% lighter than comparable traditional robots. This ultra‑lightweight mechanical design, paired with high‑power motors, enables class‑leading acceleration and cycle performance. Lower robot weight means simpler mounting, reduced infrastructure requirements, and easier automation of existing production lines.
UR robots are designed with certified functional safety at their core, supporting collaborative and traditional applications with documented compliance. Configurable safety limits for speed, force, axes, and workspaces combined with always‑active power and force limiting reduce integration complexity and streamline risk assessments. The result is safer collaboration, faster deployment, and greater flexibility for modern production environments.
UR robots integrate fast, right out of the box. Standard industrial protocols including PROFINET, EtherNet/IP, Modbus TCP, and EtherCAT, combined with extensive onboard I/O, enable direct connection to PLCs, sensors, vision systems, conveyors, and safety devices without extra hardware or licenses. This flexibility lets you scale from simple cells to complex lines while keeping integration effort and total cost of ownership low.
Every UR robot runs on PolyScope – a common software foundation designed to make automation fast, intuitive, and safe. Guided programming, built‑in capabilities, and configurable safety tools support consistent deployment from simple tasks to advanced applications.
