UR5: The World’s #1 Collaborative Robot

The lightweight, highly flexible and collaborative UR5 industrial robot arm lets you automate repetitive and dangerous tasks with payloads of up to 11 lbs. With a working radius of up to 33.5" (850 mm), the UR5 collaborative robot puts everything within reach, freeing up your employees’ time to add value to other stages of production. The six-axis robot arm weighs only 40 lbs and features repeatability to ±0.004" enabling quick, precise handling.

Unlike room-sized, heavy automation technology, the lightweight and flexible UR robot can be used directly alongside humans with no safety guarding after risk assessment. Innovative force-sensing technology enables the robot to stop operating if it encounters obstacles in its route. Training a UR robot to perform a task can is performed either with the intuitive touch screen provided with the robot or by simply grabbing the robot arm to demonstrate desired movement.

Custom end-of-arm tooling is available through the UR+ platform which features an ecosystem of 3rd-party providers developing plug-and-play products certified for UR robots.The UR5 flexible robot is ideal to optimize low-weight collaborative processes, such as picking, placing and testing, offering one of the fastest payback times in the industry.
