URCap Development

Universal Robots only trusted partner for URCap development in the UK.

URCaps are plug-in software packages for Universal Robots, with the ability to seamlessly integrate powerful functionality, and present application specific language and options on the robot’s teach pendant, making programming even simpler

A URCap can be developed to do just about anything, to simplify applications across any sector, by wrapping the complexities of programming into a simple graphical interface.

URCaps provide benefits in applications big or small, from simplifying the control of end-of-arm tooling, providing easy control of an external axis, to consolidating complex applications into a graphically configured user interface. If you have equipment to integrate, or a complex application, a URCap could well provide the answer.

Olympus Technologies Ltd are the only URCap developers certified by Universal Robots across the United Kingdom, and are one of just a handful worldwide. We pride ourselves on our ability to tailor the URCaps we develop to perfectly meet the needs of customers.

If you’re a manufacturer looking to integrate your equipment with a UR, or a customer looking to simplify your programming requirements, Olympus Technologies will provide the software you need.

Our URCap Experience

Olympus Technologies has developed and tested URCaps for a wide variety of products, from laser markers to end-of-am tooling, to applications such as palletising, welding, drilling and machine tending.

Having worked with and developed software for Universal Robots since 2012, we have deep and extensive knowledge on the tools available for software development, and as Beta testers for Universal Robots, we are the first to learn about new features and updates that can benefit you.

We test thoroughly to ensure error free software, and provide all necessary documentation to provide ease of use of your new software.

Once completed, we will oversee the route to UR+ certification to widen sales avenues and product awareness.
