- Heavy-parts palletizing (20–30 kg boxes) on automotive or food production lines where floor space is premium
- Multi-gripper machine tending (CNC load–unload) with 1300 mm reach and 25% torque boost over UR20
- High-torque screw driving and drilling in hard-to-reach cavities (automotive fastening, assembly) with steady mode
High payload in compact footprint
30–35 kg payload with 1300 mm reach fits palletizing and CNC tending where floor space is tight, outperforming smaller cobots on force-limited tasks.

When to skip it.
- Fixed-mount arm only; not mobile—requires pedestal or rail system for multi-station coverage
- No official pricing; distributor quotes vary $65–$85k + integration, doubling total system cost
- Payload drops significantly (to ~15 kg) beyond 500 mm reach offset; heavy offset loads require conservative positioning

Robofy separates manufacturer-confirmed facts from operator estimates. Anything not yet press-sourced or supplier-confirmed is tagged so you can decide how much weight to give it.
Payload and reach specs from manufacturer datasheet (official PDF); weight, repeatability, and dimensions from distributor spec sheets (RBTX); pricing inferred from 2025 reseller listings (Standard Bots) covering UR family range; development history and market positioning from The Robot Report press profile; deployment time from official UR product page; availability (Q1 2024 shipment) from UR press release.
