Universal Robots from RARUK Automation are already well-known for their ability to work safely, side-by-side, with humans. Now these robotic arms have just been certified for collaborative applications in cleanroom environments too.

For use in ISO 5 cleanrooms

The company’s UR3, UR5 and UR10 cobots have been tested and judged by TÜV SÜD to have the qualities necessary for use in cleanroom class ISO 5; the controller box is authorised for ISO 6. This quality seal creates the necessary foundation for the broad deployment of these six-axis robotic arms, without the requirement of any additional protective casings, in the manufacture of electronics, food, medical devices and pharmaceuticals as well as in life science and R&D.

So as well as their user-friendliness, flexibility, precision and quick return-on-investment, the Universal Robots can now officially add low particle emission, easy-to-clean surfaces and extreme reliability to their growing list of attributes.
