What is the point of such a software library?
This software library saves you development time and guarantees its operation regardless of the model and firmware of your robot.
Quickly create applications that communicate with your Universal Robots cobot in .NET, Python, Labview or Matlab.
The library implements all native protocols of Universal Robots cobots in several languages, allowing your computer to synchronize and control the robot arm remotely.

It is an industrial-strength software library that requires a license. The purchase of a license allows your company, regardless of the number of developers, to develop in any of the languages offered and to distribute an unlimited number of software products to an unlimited number of your customers without recurring costs.

The library has the same functionality in several languages.
This software library saves you development time and guarantees its operation regardless of the model and firmware of your robot.
You can download the latest version from the download page in the programming language of your choice.
We are specialists in this field and can help you free of charge with the technical support included with this SDK. You can also ask us for industrial software development in general. We answer all messages and will be happy to help you.
The download page of this website allows you to get examples in the language of your choice. You can then consult the documentation to get started with the library.
You can immediately request a quote directly from the order page of this website. You can also contact us.
Please check in the properties of the downloaded archive that Windows has not locked the file. If the examples launch correctly, please check that the PING command on the robot is successful. Also check that your firewall and your antivirus software allow a connection with the robot. Finally check the security settings of the robot.
Each version includes patches and new features. You will find on GitHub the history of the versions as well as the changes made. Don't hesitate to contact us to submit your ideas of evolution.
Little by little, the library has been enhanced with new features. Until version 5, all functions and protocols were developed in the same class, which became confusing. From version 6 and higher, all features are independent and developed in separate classes. Please contact us to help you migrate, or download the latest version 5.X.X.X from GitHub, which remains compatible with all older versions.
