Universal Robots e-Series Cobots

e-Series Cobots

Our e-Series cobots exemplify all that we believe in – productivity, adaptability and reliability. Equipped with intuitive programming and versatile use, the e-Series is able to complement production regardless of your industry, company size or product nature. 

Built with the future in mind, the e-Series is designed to grow in capability alongside your business through the Universal Robots+ platform, taking on new tasks and finding new uses, so you will always be able to stay ahead of your competitors. 

The e-Series takes robotic automation beyond what you can do today. Get ready to trailblaze into the future.

Fast Set-up

Unparalleled convenience at your fingertips 

Reduce robot deployment time from weeks to hours with Universal Robots. Our cobots do not require special electrical installations and can be connected to any regular power outlet. An intuitive user interface enables easy set-up, installation and integration into your production line. 

Universal Robots+ products ensure hassle-free integration to maximize productivity by plug and produce. The robots also come with 32 industrial I/O connectors (24 volt) and Ethernet connectivity.

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.

Flexible

Unlimited applications with one cobot 

Explore the possibilities of robotic deployment with Universal Robots. Our cobots are lightweight, space saving and easy to re-deploy to multiple applications without changing production layouts. They can be moved between tasks quickly and are able to reuse programs for recurrent tasks, giving customers the flexibility to automate multiple manual tasks within one production facility even with just one cobot. 

The e-Series’ versatility is supported by the Universal Robots+ ecosystem, which offers a range of end-effectors and softwares to meet every configuration and application need.

The e-Series Family

The e-Series family has four members – the UR3e, UR5e, UR10e, and UR16e. Each cobot offers a different reach and payload, and they share the same ease of use and dependability that makes them a valuable addition to any production facility.

UR3e

Small but powerful, the UR3e has a payload of 3 kg and reach radius of 500 mm. With 360-degree rotation on all wrist joints and infinite rotation on the end joint, this table-top cobot handles high precision tasks and light assembly tasks with ease.

UR5e

The medium-sized member of the Universal Robots family is ideal for automating low weight processing tasks with its 5 kg payload and 850 mm reach radius. Easy to program and fast to set up, the UR5e strikes the perfect balance between size and power. 

UR16e

With its 16 kg payload, the UR16e helps reduce the costs, ergonomic risks, and downtime associated with heavy part handling. A small footprint and 900 mm reach make the UR16e ideal for applications such as heavy-duty materials handling and CNC machine tending applications, including multi-gripper end of arm tooling.

UR10e

Capable of automating tasks up to 12.5 kg with the same reliability and performance characterized by the e-Series, the UR10e has a reach radius of 1300 mm. This enables it to carry out tasks like packaging and palletizing in facilities where there is a greater distance between different operating areas.

Subject to risk assessment, e-Series cobots can typically work alongside skilled operators on the production line, thanks to built-in configurable safety functions. Our cobots are certified by TÜV NORD for ISO 10218-1 and safety functions are rated as Cat.3 PL d according to ISO 13849-1. Safety is one of the pioneering features of collaborative robotics, and our users can meet demanding safety standards while exploring the unlimited applications of our cobots. Greater productivity, improved product quality, and peace of mind are ways we’re making automation accessible to everyone.

e-Series 3PE Teach Pendant

All e-Series cobots include the standard e-Series Teach Pendant, offering an intuitive user interface for easy programming with UR’s powerful PolyScope software. A 3-position enabling teach pendant is also available as a variant for all payloads of e-Series robots, and as a UR+ component. The 3PE device is mechanically and functionally integrated with the e-Series Teach Pendant – just Plug & Produce with any e-Series control box. Additionally, it is fully integrated into the PolyScope user interface to enable all robot motion, including Freedrive, in manual mode.

Key Benefits

• Full mechanical 3PE device integration 
• Full software integration - the 3PE Teach Pendant is natively supported in PolyScope 
• Connects to the control box with the same connector as the standard e-Series teach pendant 
• Can be mounted to any existing e-Series teach pendant brackets 
• Includes two 3PE devices, allowing comfortable use with left or right hand 
• Included in TÜV NORD certifications ISO 10218-1:2011 and ISO 13849-1:2015

e-Series OEM Control Box

Our standard control box complements the mobility and small footprint of our cobot arms. To meet the growing demand for cobots in sophisticated, purpose built automation systems, we have developed a ready-to-integrate control box, designed to be embedded in another control panel. The minimal form factor of our OEM Control Box is powering complex automation systems, turnkey solutions, and OEM products, across many industries and applications. 

The compact OEM control box is available with all sizes of e-Series robot arms, in AC or DC versions.

Key Benefits

• Cost effective 
• Compact and lightweight 
• No teach pendant or metal cabinet enclosure 
• Reduces unneeded components and waste 
• Power connector with strain relief included makes wiring easy 
• Convenient mounting features 
• AC model, like our standard robots, can be powered by a standard single-phase wall outlet 
• DC model is ideal for battery-operated systems such as mobile robots

A control box, teach pendant, and standard cable are included with every standard robot arm.

Every e-Series purchase includes a 6 m standard cable and a base flange connector that enables through-side and through hole mounting for your robot.
