Universal Robots e-Series cobots

Universal Robots has introduced its e-Series cobots. The e-Series platform includes technology advances that enable faster development for a wider variety of applications. Improvements include the ability to economically deploy even more applications, due to greater precision and sensitivity provided by a built-in, tool-centric force/torque sensor.

It takes one hour to unpack the cobot, mount it and program the first task. A wrist-join-tool communication interface reduces production line integration time and complexity, and all joints can be replaced in 2 to 6 minutes. A redesigned intuitive and responsive-touch user-friendly interface streamlines program development by simplifying programming to a few clicks on a lightweight, wide-screen teach pendant.

17 safety functions, including customisable stopping time and distance, make collaborative automation easier. Certified by TÜV Nord, all safety functions are in compliance with the industry best practice EN ISO 13849-1 and EN ISO 10218-1 (Cat. 3 PLd) machinery safety standards for unobstructed human-robot collaboration.
