Universal Robots e-Series Applications and Industries
Applications
No matter what industry you are in, there will always be a place for an e-Series cobot in your facility or along your production line to automate a mundane task, take over a dangerous one, or simply change the way your employees work.
From the delicate handling of medical components to the large-scale assembly of bulky furniture, there is no task too difficult for the e-Series. Easily programmable, lightweight and compact, these cobots switch between tasks seamlessly and are economically viable even for the small-batch and mixed-product assembly lines.
Customizing your cobot is easy – simply choose from the wide range of end-effectors, accessories and software in the Universal Robots+ ecosystem to create a robotic solution that matches your production and industry needs perfectly.
Precision Palletizing
Combat the rising costs of new product packaging and shortened product life cycles by automating your packaging and palletizing processes. The e-Series is compatible with most palletizing and packaging applications, and can be easily re-programmed to take on new tasks or integrate with different machines to keep up with changing production needs.
Quality Assurance Inspection
Once equipped with a vision camera, the cobot can be used for non-destructive testing and 3D measurements to further guarantee product quality with little risk of human error. Automate even your quality assurance inspections with the e-Series’ ability to detect and identify faulty parts before they are packaged and shipped.
Injection Molding
Designed to connect directly with Injection Molding Machines (IMMs), the e-Series cobots are capable of handling injection molds for prototyping and short-run productions, even in unmanned conditions. Pressure control capabilities also ensure that our robots does the exact quantity of a fluid each time for uniform product quality and minimal wastage.
Industrial Assembly
Achieve greater consistency and precision in your manufacturing process by automating assembly operations with the e-Series cobots. The cobots can be customized with various adaptor mechanisms to work with products of varying sizes and materials.
Industrial Pick and Place
Production never ceases with e-Series cobots. Equipped with vision sensors and grippers, the cobots are able to complete most pick and place applications autonomously while freeing up employees to take on higher-value work.
Unlimited Applications
The list doesn’t stop here. Equipped with the right third party product, the e-Series can take on virtually any task you can think of. If you can think of it, the e-Series can do it.
Industries
