Umbratek Launches Its First Robotic Arm Series

The UTRA series is the world's most powerful as well as affordable modular robot on the market today, with five different robot arm models to choose from.

FREMONT, CA: Umbratek, a cutting-edge new robotic tech startup, has launched its first robotic arm series called the UTRA series on Kickstarter.

The UTRA series is the world's most powerful as well as affordable modular robot on the market today, with five different robot arm models to choose from.

Each arm, which has 4 to 6 axes and is designed with a modular structure design, can be customized to suit your business needs. Since the UTRA series is 90% manufactured in-house, it is approximately 70 percent less expensive than leading global competitors.

Umbratek's ADRA Actuator series powers the groundbreaking UTRA series. Each ADRA Actuator is constructed to last and includes a high-precision harmonic reducer made of high-strength aviation aluminum and high-carbon chromium steel.

Because of the high torque density and compact construction, the motor can be incorporated into the actuator, reducing actuator weight. Each actuator includes high-performance servo drivers that use field-oriented control to protect against overvoltage, overcurrent, overheating, reverse attachment, undervoltage ESD, short-circuiting, and rotor lock. The ADRA series also includes a 16-bit off-axis multi-turn absolute encoder and dual GMR+TMR hybrid detection technology.

Evan Deng, founder and CEO of Umbratek, said, "Umbratek focuses on high-performance dynamic robots and control systems. We've spent the last few years developing simplified, customized, affordable robotic solutions for your various needs. Our robots provide fresh energy for industrial automation, logistics, medical, agricultural, and many more settings."
