Collaborative robots by UR are ideal for quality inspection applications
UR makes cobot solutions for quality inspection.
Universal Robots (UR) is renowned internationally for its collaborative robot arms, or “cobots”, which are available in Canada from Advanced Motion & Controls Ltd. One great use for cobots – especially in the automotive, subcontractor, food-processing, agriculture, and metals industries – is quality inspection. With precise quality assurance, testing, and measurement, these robotic arms increase consistency and maintain high quality. This exactness and consistency are the keys to the success of every project.
From now until June 30, there is an ongoing special on several Phoenix products, such as PLC starter kits, security routers, connectors, circuit breakers, and more.

UR cobots can consistently, repeatedly follow precise processes and predefined workflows with virtually no deviation, which results in optimum conditions for study or analysis. Human workers cannot repeat the same movements over and over for hours with the exact same precision. By automating quality inspection, manufacturers boost measurement consistency and maintain high product quality. Cobots offer a repeatability of down plus or minus 0.03 millimetres, which is ideal for automating quick-precision handling in these tasks.
To meet these challenges, Phoenix manufactures a broad variety of solutions and concepts, from intelligent street lighting and WLAN illumination of town and city centres to traffic management. Phoenix contributes to the structured transformation of urban spaces into smart cities with many innovative systems and expertise in industry-specific technology and applications.
Cobots with UR+ certified vision cameras provide easy plug-and-play integration for non-destructive testing and three-dimensional measurement, which also results in high quality. They can objectively identify and pinpoint defective or faulty components before they are packaged and shipped.
Due to their small sizes and lightweight design, UR cobots from Advanced Motion & Controls can be deployed easily in tight spaces. They relieve employees of repetitive tasks while boosting consistency in quality inspection processes. Cobots provide all of the benefits of advanced robotic automation, without the traditional added expenses of robot programming, setup, and dedicated, shielded work cells. They have an average payback period of 195 days – the fastest in the robot sector.
Another advantage: moving cobots to new processes is quick and simple. Users have the agility to automate virtually any manual task, including ones with small batches or fast changeovers. Each robot can reuse programs for recurrent applications. All UR robot arms have IP54 certification and require protection when working with corrosive fluids.
Collaborative robots by UR are making automation easier than ever before, even for small or medium-sized businesses. They are cost-efficient, safe, and flexible to deploy.
