What is Ur robot? 

Ur-robot is Universal -robot ,this made by Denmark.and using many factory in Europe.

Ur-robot is robot arm 6 axis imagine to our arm 1 side left or right.That axis consis of

1. Base similar to our body
2. Shoulder = our shoulder
3. elbow = our elbow
4. wrist 1 = our hand angle turn up down 
5. writs 2 = our hand turn left right
6. wrist 3 = our hand angle twist palm

 Whatever 1 hand can reach and do robot also act the same and could be done.

Yes above is basic information what the Ur-robot have

What is the pros and cons of this robot arm

We will say about pros 1^st

1.      Now as we know got two size Ur-10,Ur-5 for 10kg and 5kg payload

2.      can work collaborate with human with out any fencing (safety)

3.      light weight robot.

4.      compact size.

5.      ease to install just to carton box when delivery to door

6.      good support and warranty.

7.      easy to program the point.(what you bring it go that what you get that point,quite straight forward to understand)

8.      Maintenance free robot no lubricate is require.

2^nd Now we say about Cons

1.      This robot can not run to fast just 1 meter for 2 second only.

2.      after run too fast that will be error occure ,some time we can not guest what will happen.

3.      repeatability is not there spect is error 0.1 mm but actual is 0.5 till 1 mm depend on how fast of speed and acceleration

4.      when we run very fast so need to do fencing

5.      i/o bundle just 10 in 10 out only if we need more or expand i/o we need to find modbus slave device.

6.      Modbus slave device ,is not many are compatible with this robot mostly in the market are act like master device this will made communication data crash lose communication as experience its along well with Beckhoff device.

7.       When want to program more advance is become not fun jobs, because only can do touch screen, it not convenience to type. and this is one cause slow programming

8.      it Europe price (selling in Euro)

 We seen a lot of cons some people already give up but anyway this robot still have the bright future.

As experience some cons item we can eliminate it ,that thing need to consider is

How we installation

how good configuration robot eg, tcp setting offset how much,how weight payload is it near or less than robot can stand. 

all of this cause accuracy of this robot 

What solution we want to integrate

1.      vision system integrate ,pay and free solution.

2.      Expansion I/O with slave PLC.

Ok let see for next episode soon.

Thank you.
