Universal Robots e‑Series Cobots: Advanced Force/Torque Sensing, 30‑µm Precision and Intuitive Programming
The latest e‑Series collaborative robots from Universal Robots elevate industrial automation with built‑in force/torque sensing and unprecedented precision. Designed for tasks that demand exact force control—such as sanding, buffing, polishing, and deburring—the standard tool‑centric sensor works out of the box, enabling smooth, repeatable operations.
Key features include:
- Mass measurement and inspection capabilities for real‑time quality control.
- Contact detection with high sensitivity for safer human‑robot collaboration.
- Improved repeatability: 30 µm (0.03 mm) on UR3e and UR5e, and 50 µm (0.05 mm) on UR10e, making them ideal for precision finishing, assembly, and electronics.
- A redesigned, lightweight touchscreen teach pendant that simplifies program development to just a few clicks.
- Externally accessible 500‑Hz system bus for advanced motion control and integration with machine‑vision systems.
- Unique safety feature: programmable stopping time and distance for protective stops—unmatched among cobots.
With these upgrades, the e‑Series delivers the expertise, precision, and ease of use that modern manufacturing demands, reinforcing Universal Robots’ authority in collaborative automation.
