30 kg collaborative robot

The UR30 industrial robot from Universal Robots has a 30 kg payload cobot and a small footprint, enabling it to fit into almost all workspaces. It weighs 63.5 kg, and can be easily moved between work cells. The UR30 is ideal for applications including machine tending, material handling, and high-torque screw driving. The high payload brings new possibilities as it allows the cobot to use multiple grippers at the same time, the company says.
