UR15

The UR15 Long collaborative robot is designed for manufacturers who need outstanding speed, reliable heavy-duty handling, and flexible deployment in space-constrained environments. It combines powerful payload performance with a lightweight footprint, making it ideal for demanding industrial automation tasks where productivity and precision must work together.

With an impressive maximum speed of 5 m/s, the UR15 Long helps reduce cycle times and improve throughput across a wide range of applications. As a result, it is perfectly suited to modern production facilities where efficiency, safety, and adaptability are essential.

Outsized Performance with Extended Reach

The UR15 Long delivers the kind of performance typically associated with larger industrial robots, yet it maintains the flexible and collaborative advantages Universal Robots is known for.

Its long reach and high-speed motion allow it to cover larger work areas from a single mounting point. Therefore, fewer movements and repositioning steps are needed during each cycle. In addition, its speed of up to 5 metres per second dramatically improves task completion times.

Because of this, manufacturers can increase output without expanding floor space or adding more robotic cells.

Built for Space-Constrained Environments

Many production lines need heavy-duty automation but simply do not have room for large robotic systems. However, the UR15 Long solves this challenge with a compact footprint and lightweight design.

It fits easily into machine cells, production lines, and workstations where space is limited. Furthermore, its flexible mounting options allow it to be integrated into existing workflows with minimal disruption.

As a result, businesses can automate demanding tasks in areas that were previously unsuitable for traditional robots. This makes it particularly valuable in sectors where floor space is at a premium.

Fast, Smooth and Highly Precise Motion

High speed only delivers value when movement remains smooth and accurate. The UR15 Long is powered by OptiMove technology, which provides highly intuitive motion programming and exceptional path control.

Because of this, the cobot achieves smoother acceleration, more precise movement transitions, and stronger repeatability. In addition, this advanced motion system is especially effective in high-speed and high-payload applications where precision directly impacts output quality.

The result is cleaner finishes, improved consistency, and reduced product variation across long production runs.

Smarter Automation with PolyScope and AI Readiness

The UR15 Long runs on PolyScope, Universal Robots’ advanced software platform. This gives users a highly intuitive interface for programming, setup, and ongoing optimisation.

Furthermore, PolyScope is built to be AI-ready, which supports seamless integration with vision systems, intelligent sensors, machine learning tools, and future smart factory technologies.

Because of this, the UR15 Long is not only ready for today’s automation needs but also positioned for future digital transformation projects.

As a result, manufacturers gain a flexible platform that can evolve alongside their production strategies.

The UR15 Long is specifically engineered to take over repetitive, physically demanding, and time-sensitive tasks. Therefore, it is an excellent choice for applications that combine speed with payload requirements.

Popular applications include:

• Palletising for fast end-of-line handling
• Machine tending and automated loading
• Welding and fabrication support
• Dispensing and adhesive control
• Sanding and polishing operations
• Material handling and heavy lifting
• Material removal and finishing
• Quality inspection processes

In each case, the cobot improves consistency while reducing physical strain on employees.

Improved Safety and Human Collaboration

Despite its speed and heavy-duty capability, the UR15 Long remains a collaborative robot designed to work safely alongside human operators.

This allows businesses to combine robotic strength with human flexibility in the same production cell. In addition, the built-in safety features support deployment in shared workspaces without requiring excessive guarding in many applications.

Because of this, the UR15 Long helps manufacturers improve both productivity and workplace safety at the same time.

Faster Cycle Times, Higher Productivity

Cycle time reduction is one of the biggest advantages of the UR15 Long. Its high-speed movement, smooth path control, and long reach combine to minimise delays between tasks.

As a result, more parts can be processed per hour, and throughput increases across the production line. In addition, fewer stoppages and better repeatability reduce waste and rework.

Because of this, the cobot supports both immediate productivity gains and long-term cost savings.

Easy Deployment and Workflow Integration

The UR15 Long is designed to integrate effortlessly into existing workflows. Its compact size and flexible programming platform make deployment straightforward even in complex industrial settings.

Therefore, setup times are reduced, and production interruptions remain minimal. In addition, engineers can quickly adapt the cobot for new tasks as production requirements evolve.

This level of flexibility makes it ideal for agile manufacturing environments and mixed production runs.

The UR15 Long offers an exceptional combination of speed, payload capability, and collaborative flexibility. It is designed for manufacturers who need serious performance without sacrificing space or usability.

Key benefits include:

• Maximum speed of 5 m/s
• Compact footprint for restricted spaces
• Smooth OptiMove motion programming
• AI-ready PolyScope software
• Heavy-duty task capability
• Safe collaborative deployment
• Wide range of industrial applications

Because of these strengths, it is a future-ready cobot for demanding environments.
