Rollon and Universal Robots debut cobot seventh-axis solution
Rollon and Universal Robots presented a seventh-axis linear-motion solution for UR cobots at Motek in Stuttgart.

Evidence notes
- The Rollon Seventh Axis was designed to extend UR cobot reach for machine tending, assembly, pick-and-place and palletizing applications.
- The demo moved a UR10 on a Sev 220-1 unit and Rollon said variants were planned for UR3 and UR5 cobots.
Company context
Rollon supplies linear motion systems, actuators and robot transfer units for industrial automation. Its CTU Cobot Transfer Unit extends Universal Robots work envelopes with a UR-compatible linear axis.
