The UR8 Long offers a 1750 mm reach in a compact, lightweight design. Ideal for welding, pick & place and quality inspection, it excels in applications requiring precise linear motion and high-speed acceleration. With advanced joint architecture and accurate torque control, it’s the perfect cobot for tasks demanding both reach and precision.
UR8 Long’s technical strengths translate directly into everyday productivity. UR8 Long enables seamless torch control for cleaner welds, less grinding and reduced rework —saving both time and consumables in fabrication shops. It takes on repetitive and unergonomic welds, helping skilled welders focus on higher-value tasks while easing the impact of labor shortages.
The same combination of long reach, compact design and collaborative flexibility extends across industries. From pick & place in tight body-in-white structures to handling subassemblies with unmatched speed and accuracy, the UR8 Long proves its value in the automotive sector and beyond — delivering automation exactly where it’s needed most.
Some jobs demand more than skill. They demand a tool that won’t flinch when the job gets tough. UR8 Long’s technical strengths translate directly into everyday productivity.

Future-proof your facility with a cobot which enables you to grow with your tasks. When requiring to lift heavy objects over the maximum distance, do not limit yourself by the way your end-effector is mounted. If the objects require a change of how they are being lifted, resulting a shift in the center of gravity, the UR8 Long will support you in this change.

With increased payload, enhanced speed and reach capabilities, the safety of the operator is always our number one priority. With the goal of building a collaborative robot, our engineers devoted hours into the development of our safety functions. The result of their effort was the creation of benchmarks for safety when working with collaborative, industrial robots today.
By integrating your robots with our comprehensive connectivity platform, you’ll benefit from enhanced productivity, minimized downtime, and efficient fleet management – all from the convenience of your office, wherever that might be.
While our goal is to make automation available for anyone, anywhere, we also aim to support your journey in revolutionizing your business by enabling safe and collaborative human-robot interaction.

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.

Our cobot's small footprint opens opportunities to automate tasks in existing manufacturing setups where floorspace is often set and at a premium.

Automating tasks gives you the possibility to run tasks autonomously without constant monitoring of your employees. In addition, UR cobots use less electricity than traditional industrial robots.

All UR cobots come with built-in safety features, including force-sensing technology and collision detection. These features allow our cobots to work alongside you without the need for safety barriers or cages, increasing productivity and promoting a safe working environment.
UR Academy offers a series of step-by-step programming examples and tutorials for troubleshooting and repair tasks.

Learn how to set the tool center point (TCP), and how to adjust payload & center of gravity correctly.

Learn how to create and configure safety planes. A safety plane can prevent the robot from moving beyond it in normal mode, reduced mode or both; or it can trigger reduced mode.
