Designed for lifting

The UR16e enables safe and efficient handling of heavy components, even when space is limited. Its compact design and precise motion control make it a reliable solution for demanding automation tasks in small cells. Applications such as machine tending, material handling, or packaging can be performed quickly, stably, and with consistent motion. The UR16e offers a robust design combined with technologies that make operation safe and comfortable.

High load capacity, small footprint

The UR16e combines a 16 kg payload with a compact design. This makes it ideal for confined work cells and applications where heavy components need to be moved with precision.

Stable, precise movements

High repeat accuracy and advanced motion control ensure controlled processes—even with heavy tools or higher forces. This allows short cycle times to be achieved reliably.

Flexible use

Whether machine loading, assembly, or handling, the UR16e adapts to a wide variety of production environments without requiring additional infrastructure.

Secure collaboration

The UR16e was developed with a strong focus on safety. It features integrated safety functions such as force sensor technology and collision detection. This allows it to be used in close proximity to humans without the need for traditional safety devices such as fences or cages. The UR16e enables efficient, collaborative work processes while contributing to a safe environment.

Easy to program

Even untrained technicians can program a cobot for specific tasks within a very short time.

Highly flexible in use

Use the cobot in almost any position without changing the layout of your production.

Very quick to set up

The initial setup after delivery takes just a few hours.

UR16e Areas of application

The UR16e can be used in a wide range of applications. Click on the most popular applications below to learn more.

Dispensing with cobots

Automate gluing and sealing processes for consistent quality. Reduce your material consumption and relieve employees of monotonous tasks—easily and flexibly.

Sanding with cobots

Thanks to integrated force-torque sensors, the robot can "feel" the surface. It maintains constant pressure—whether on a flat surface or a curved edge.

Machine loading with cobots

A cobot never takes a break. It can run ghost shifts and keep your machines productive even at night or on weekends.

Deburring with cobots

Automate monotonous deburring. Cobots with flexible tools compensate for tolerances and ensure consistent edge quality on metal and plastic.

Automatic palletizing with cobots

Automate the palletizing of cartons. Relieve employees of heavy work and increase efficiency with flexible solutions for every stack height.

Assembly with cobots

Precision in assembly. Cobots take over the screwing, joining, and plugging of components—with integrated force control and seamless process monitoring.

Quality inspection with cobots

Whether optical inspection with cameras or physical measurement with probes and sensors: Cobots automate your quality inspection objectively, precisely, and reproducibly.

Welding with cobots

Automate welding processes with our mobile cobot cells. Compensate for the shortage of skilled workers and achieve consistent quality – ready to use immediately ("Ready to Weld").
