Universal Robots fastest cobot yet delivers up to 30% cycle time improvement
With unparalleled motion capability and a maximum TCP speed of 5 m/s, Universal Robots new cobot, UR15, is the fastest ever UR cobot, enabling reduced cycle times, increased productivity and reduced costs across applications and industries.
For pick-and-place applications, the UR15 delivers up to 30% cycle time improvements compared to other UR models. All the while retaining the unique UR trademarks of lightweight design and small footprint to deliver unmatched flexibility for integration in tight workspaces.
"For 20 years, we've pushed the boundaries of collaborative automation, making it easier, safer and more powerful for businesses around the world," said Tero Tolonen, Chief Product Officer. "Today, we take another leap forward with the UR15, which is designed specifically to operate at higher speeds with the smoothest performance in robotics today."

Combined with OptiMove, UR's new motion control technology, those gains go even further, enhancing trajectory smoothness and ensuring consistently accurate movements -- even in high-speed and high-payload applications.
Powered by PolyScope X, AI ready
UR15 runs with both PolyScope 5 and PolyScope X, UR's software platform, and is ready to be supercharged with AI to enable unmatched usability. The UR15 can easily be used with the UR AI Accelerator, UR's toolkit for developing AI-powered applications.
Designed for flexibility, efficiency and reliability
The UR15 has a payload of 15 kg (33 lbs) which can be increased to 17.5 kg (38.58 lbs) for applications with wrist-down orientation, such as palletizing. UR15 is a versatile cobot designed to empower multiple applications and industries -- each with their own unique challenges where flexibility, efficiency and reliability are critical.
Three of these industries are:
- Automotive, where space is tight, and flexibility is key. Here UR15's small footprint and full work envelope delivers performance without compromising space or speed. Common automotive applications historically limited by the production speed of cobots -- such as automated bin picking, machine tending and inspection -- can now be significantly sped up while retaining the highest level of precision.
- Metal and machining, where environments can be harsh. The UR15 offers improved ingress protection, IP65, and high payload capability -- combined with easy deployment.
- Electronics and tech, requiring precision and compact design. With cleanroom class excellence, compact form and exceptional motion control, UR15 is ready for high-speed pick and place and smooth integration with AMRs and AGVs.
