Easy Programming

Unrestricted possibilities anyone can embrace

Forget programming school. With Universal Robots Academy, anyone can become a robot programmer. Save on the costs of a professional programmer with Universal Robots. Our patented and intuitive 3D-interface allows anyone within the production facility to become a robot programmer even without prior experience. A user friendly and intuitive teach pendant allow operators to program a cobot by moving its arms to the desired waypoints, or simply using drag-and-drop functions on a touchscreen tablet. 

Even the most complex tasks can be taught to our cobot with Universal Robots’ Integrated Force Torque Sensor. Highly sensitive to even the slightest movements, the sensor enables our cobots to be programmed with precision for tasks where accuracy is of paramount importance.

Fast Payback

Unmatched returns for small and large businesses alike

Universal Robots brings all the advantages of advanced robotic automation and collaborative robots to our customers without any of the traditional added costs associated with robot programming, set-up and safety guarding. 

Universal Robots makes robotic automation an option for small and medium enterprises, small batch production runs and other set-ups where traditional solutions may be too expensive. 

Firefighting equipment manufacturer Task Force Tips, USA, is an example where the safety guarding and inflexibility associated with traditional robotic solutions hindered the effectiveness of automation. With the addition of 4 Universal Robots cobots to tend their CNC machines, however, Task Force Tips was able to reduce staffing requirements while raising productive hours, registering a payback of 34 days.

24 HOURS PRODUCTIVITY. 365 DAYS A YEAR
