TruLifter URCaps Kit

Automating Machine Tool Operations with URCap and Trulifter Integration

This URCap application illustrates how machine tool loading and unloading can be efficiently automated using Universal Robots (UR) jointed-arm robots combined with the Trulifter system. The UR5e collaborative 6-axis robot moves along a drylin seventh axis, picking up workpieces from the machines and sorting them into crates. The crates are then transported by the Trulifter, ensuring seamless workflow integration. With a reach of 850 mm, a payload capacity of 5 kg, and the ability to integrate customizable grippers or camera systems, the UR5e caters to diverse applications across manufacturing, logistics, and laboratory environments.
