UR Studio - Building trusted automation solutions with simulation

Design, simulate, deploy

UR Studio lets you build and validate your automation setup - from the ground up - directly in your browser. Add robots, modules and components one by one, including the existing elements in your workspace, to ensure your solution fits within the real-world environment. Simulate the complete setup, test your program and calculate cycle time, so you can move from idea to deployment with confidence.

Get started with UR Studio in 3 simple steps

Register or Log in

Visit UR Studio and sign in with your UR account – no installation or setup required. Don't have a UR account? It’s free and take two minutes to create one.

Set up your virtual work cell

Choose your robot model, define the environment, and begin building your 1:1 virtual work cell - you can also choose to begin with one of our pre-defined templates. Simulate reach, positioning, and movement instantly.

Validate and share

Test your application logic, optimize layouts, and export your setup or findings to share with customers or your team.

Ease of use

Getting started with UR Studio is simple, even if you're new to simulation tools. The intuitive interface is designed for ease and speed, allowing you to drag, drop and position components with precision. Pre-created templates help you hit the ground running, whether you're building a new setup or adapting an existing one. You can add robots, modules and end-effectors one by one, see how they interact and adjust on the fly, all without needing any advanced training.

No downloads, no steep learning curve - just a straightforward way to start building smarter automation.

Cell optimization

Before you commit to hardware or layout changes, simulate every key aspect of your setup with confidence. UR Studio enables you to test robot reach, check for collisions, evaluate speeds and plan around real-world constraints like floor space and existing equipment. You can visualize how everything fits together, optimize placement and fine-tune your workflow for efficiency and performance. By identifying potential issues early, you reduce downtime, avoid costly adjustments and ensure a smoother deployment process, right from the start.

Looking to optimize an end-of-line palletizing solution?

Start by adding the elements already in the workspace, like conveyer belts and produce, then build around them using a wide range of modules, robots and end-effectors. From conveyor belts and products to grippers and more, you can mirror the real-world setup to ensure the final solution fits your space, functions as intended and meets your cycle time targets.

Polyscope X and UR studio working hand-in-hand

UR Studio and PolyScope X

UR Studio is designed to work hand-in-hand with PolyScope X, Universal Robots’ most advanced software platform. This means the program you create in the simulation environment will behave the same way when deployed on the robot, giving you full confidence that your setup will work as expected in real life.

PolyScope X is built to support simulation from the ground up, so you can create and validate solutions in a virtual space before committing to the floor. From exploring different robot models or choosing which setup works best for you to testing optimized cycle times, UR Studio lets you experiment freely with Polyscope X, enabling you to solve specific automation challenges and deploy with certainty.
Together, UR Studio and PolyScope X help bridge the gap between concept and operation — allowing faster, more confident automation development. Try it all in the browser, then bring it to life.
