Over the past ten years, a silent phenomenon has taken place in the global industry: while some manufacturing plants have closed due to cost pressures or failing to modernise in time, others have resurged with impressive strength without the need for multimillion-euro investments. What is the secret? Intelligent industrial reconstruction supported by refurbished robotics and
In the era of accelerated automation, many factories face the same dilemma: their robots work, but their control systems are outdated. The solution? Retrofitting. Modernising an obsolete industrial robot not only saves investment, it also prolongs its service life and improves its performance at a much lower cost than a new machine. What is robotic
In industrial robotics, safety is not just a legal requirement—it is the foundation of responsible automation. As the use of refurbished robots continues to grow rapidly, understanding European regulations and safety standards becomes essential to ensure operations are both lawful and secure. In Europe, industrial robots are primarily governed by the Machinery Directive 2006/42/EC, which
At URT’s facilities in Zamudio, near Bilbao (Vizcaya), a precision test was recently carried out on the Fanuc M-20iA robot as part of the company’s industrial robot reconditioning process. The goal was to verify and certify that this model meets the highest standards of repeatability, positioning accuracy, and load response—key factors in demanding industrial environments.
In a world where time is gold and efficiency even more so, companies are seeking automated solutions that go beyond functionality — they must be intelligent, flexible, and scalable. Within this landscape, URT, a specialist in industrial robotics and automation, introduces one of its most promising technological gems: the YOUIBOT P200, an autonomous mobile robot
In today’s ever-evolving industrial landscape, the traditional image of massive factories filled with sprawling machinery is giving way to a new reality. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) are now discovering that robotics is no longer the privilege of large multinationals. Thanks to technological advances, compact and collaborative robots are revolutionizing productivity even in tight spaces,
Automating a production process is never a simple or immediate decision. Many companies face understandable doubts: can a robot truly adapt to the specific needs of my production line? And more importantly, will it deliver tangible benefits? At UsedRobotsTrade, we understand these concerns, which is why we guide businesses through a thoughtful evaluation process to help
Six-axis robots have become a key tool in industrial automation, used in applications such as welding, assembly, and material handling. While new robots remain popular, second-hand robots offer significant economic and performance advantages. URT is a company specialized in the sale of refurbished industrial robots, providing an excellent alternative for those looking to optimize their
