UNIVERSAL ROBOTS INTRODUCES NEW SOFTWARE PLATFORM

The name is PolyScope X and through a new, customizable user interface, it will add new levels of flexibility to high mix, low volume machine tending automation.

With PolyScope X, machine shop operators can achieve changeover times of less than 10 minutes – far below what is possible today with any other software.

This will empower users to run more batches in a day and to run them in a more strategic and flexible way. PolyScope X is therefore ideal for high-mix, low-volume production and is introduced at a time when manufacturers all over the world are looking for increased flexibility to handle shifting and increasingly diverse orders.

At the same time, PolyScope X introduces a powerful reworked programming experience and toolset. This enables integrators and OEM partners to structure their program code into operations that can be reused throughout the program, making each operation simpler to understand, maintain and troubleshoot.

Throughout the process of developing PolyScope X, the UR team has involved customers and partners. A prototype of the software was shown at IMTS in 2022 and together with beta-testers this has provided valuable feedback for the team.

To begin with, PolyScope X for machine tending is available in Germany, the United Kingdom and Denmark. Read more about PolyScope X here.
