The robotic manufacturer Universal Robots has release their next generation of collaborative robots at the opening of Automatica. The manufacturer remains on the same robotic platform, the UR5 and UR10 still have the same safe human-robot collaboration, but with a couple of add-ons. The addition of absolute encoders, adjustable safety features and an increased number of I/Os are the main upgrades for this lightweight robot. These collaborative robots still remain strong in their well-known characteristics such as ease-of-use and quick ROI.
