Option for SMEs

Posted on Friday 1 January 2010

The UR e-Series cobots allow RARUK Automation to provide highly cost-effective systems – often in combination with other automation products – that promise long term productivity gains.

The UR e-Series makes robotic automation a viable option for SMEs with small batch production as well volume manufacturers who wish to add greater flexibility to their set-up. The technology eliminates the added costs traditionally associated with robot programming and set-up as well as safety guarding.

The new UR e-Series from RARUK Automation comprises three models whose payload is from 3kg to 10kg with a reach radius from 500mm to 1300mm. They all provide significant user benefits and the first is quick and highly flexible deployment. These cobots are lightweight, space saving and easily applied to multiple tasks without changing production layout.

No special electrical installation is required, the robot runs from a regular power outlet. It also comes as standard with 32 industrial I/O connectors and Ethernet connectivity. Unpacking, installing and programming the UR e-Series for its first task typically takes an hour.

Cobots can be moved between applications quickly and are able to re-use programmes for recurrent tasks giving customers the flexibility to automate multiple manual tasks within the production facility with just one cobot.

The patented 3D-interface allows anyone to become a robot programmer without previous experience.
