Depending on the hardware configuration of the target PC, it might be necessary to modify the drivers in the virtual machine for obtaining full use of all hardware (soundcard, network adapter, etc). However Universal Robots do not guarantee and do not provide any support, should if the guide below should turn out to be insufficient for running the virtual machine. The virtual machine has been tested on different pc’s with different players. It is not possible to run more than one simulator simultaneously. This contains a simulator for UR3e, UR5e and UR10e.

VMWare Player (free for non-commercial use, small fee for commercial use) The VMWare version requires an update to VM12įor easy convenience for non-Linux users, a virtual machine has been created for UR users.

There are various options available, but these two are the most common players:

The following describes how to run URsim in a Windows operating system.ĭescription: URsim is made for the Linux operating system. If Simulation Mode is selected in the bottom left corner, it is possible to simulate digital inputs on the I/O page. Specially the force control will be limited in use. There are some limitations to the simulator since no real robot arm is connected.

URSim is a simulation software that is used for offline programming and simulation of robot programs.
