Universal Robots UR5e Pendant-Protected Cobot Kit
Universal RobotsThis turnkey kit pairs the versatile UR5e collaborative robot with rugged pendant protection so your operators can safely teach, adjust, and run programs in real-world factory environments. Create a flexible, medium-duty cobot cell that’s ideal for pick-and-place, light assembly, testing, and tending in busy production environments.
Flexible 5 kg cobot with impact- and scratch-resistant teach pendant protection—built for busy shop floors.
What this kit includes
-
Universal Robots UR5e Collaborative Robot – 6-axis e‑Series cobot with 5 kg payload, 850 mm reach, and high repeatability, ideal for light-to-medium duty industrial tasks.
-
Energy‑absorbing frame that wraps the UR e‑Series teach pendant to help protect against drops, bumps, and day-to-day impacts.
-
Tempered Glass Screen Protector – Clear, form-fit tempered glass overlay that shields the pendant touchscreen from scratches, dust, oils, and coolants.
Why choose this UR5e kit?
1. A proven, flexible cobot platform
The UR5e offers a balanced combination of reach and payload, making it a strong fit for:
-
Pick-and-place and kitting
-
Light assembly and screwdriving
-
Testing, inspection, and lab automation
-
Machine tending for smaller CNCs, presses, and fixtures
Its intuitive programming environment allows your in-house team to deploy and adjust applications without deep robotics experience.
2. Shop-floor-ready pendant protection
Manual interaction with the teach pendant is where most accidental damage happens. This kit hardens that weak point:
-
Pendant Armor acts like a shock absorber around the pendant housing, helping to dissipate impact energy if it’s dropped or hit.
-
Tempered glass protector takes the abuse of scratches, dirt, and chemicals so your actual touchscreen doesn’t have to.
Instead of dealing with costly repairs or replacements, you simply replace the glass protector or bumper if they’re damaged.
3. Reduced downtime, lower risk
By protecting the most vulnerable part of the system—the teach pendant—you reduce the chances of:
-
Unexpected line stoppages due to a damaged HMI
-
Unbudgeted pendant repair costs
-
Lost productivity while waiting for replacement hardware
This kit is designed so operators can confidently work near the cell, teach new points, and make adjustments without “babying” the pendant.
Key features
-
5 kg payload, 850 mm reach to cover a wide range of light and medium-duty tasks.
-
Collaborative design with built-in safety functions that support human-robot collaboration when properly risk assessed.
-
Compact footprint that fits into tight workcells and existing production lines.
-
Rugged pendant protection to extend the life of your teach pendant and maintain uptime.
-
Scalable platform that can grow with your automation roadmap—add grippers, vision, and force sensing as your applications expand.
Ideal applications for this kit
Use the UR5e Pendant-Protected Cobot Kit when you need:
-
Frequent program teaching or adjustment at the pendant.
-
Operators working in close proximity to the cobot cell.
-
Environments where bumps, drops, or material contact with the pendant are likely.
-
A flexible, reusable automation platform for multiple SKUs or product families.
Example deployments:
-
Loading/unloading small parts into CNCs or test stands.
-
Light assembly tasks where operators share the workspace with the cobot.
-
Packaging stations where the pendant is used throughout the shift for recipe or job changes.
