Overview

UR8 Long is a collaborative robotic arm designed for higher payloads and longer reach, making it ideal for larger applications.

Flagship features

  • Fast deployment: Out-of-box experience for an untrained operator to unpack, mount, and program the first simple task is typically less than an hour
  • Space saving: Small footprint opens opportunities to automate tasks in existing manufacturing setups where floorspace is often set and at a premium
  • Power consumption: Uses less electricity than traditional industrial robots
  • Collaborative and safe: Built-in safety features, including force-sensing technology and collision detection, allow cobots to work alongside humans without safety barriers or cages
