Kinematics: DH parameters

DH and inverse kinematics explained

Standard Denavit–Hartenberg parameters as published by Universal Robots. θ is the joint variable, so no fixed θ offset is listed. Universal Robots notes that its “a” corresponds to the “r” parameter in some DH references. [2]

Universal Robots publishes this table as “UR10e/UR12e”.
These are nominal design values. A specific arm's calibrated kinematics can differ; check your controller's calibration data before relying on nominal values for absolute positioning.

Where it sits in the range

UR10e carries 12.5 kg with a 1,300 mm reach on a Ø190 mm footprint. Its base and shoulder joints are rated at ±120°/s, slower than the elbow and wrists at ±180°/s, which matters for long sweeping moves.

Universal Robots now presents UR12e as the next evolution of UR10e. On the September 2026 datasheets the two arms list the same 12.5 kg payload, 1,300 mm reach and DH parameters; the listed arm weights differ by 0.2 kg.

What the datasheet cannot answer

Reach and payload describe the envelope, not the cycle time or the safe speed of a finished cell. RoboMag has not physically tested UR10e.

Maintenance resources

Robot Garage

Universal Robots' e-Series service handbook covers UR10e alongside the other e-Series arms: inspection, part replacement, software, troubleshooting and spare parts. RoboMag summarises the published inspection intervals below; it does not reproduce service procedures. Isolate the robot safely and follow the manufacturer's handbook for any work.

Recommended robot-arm inspections published by Universal Robots for the e-Series (V = visual, F = functional). Items marked * must also be checked after a heavy collision. [4]
Interval	Published inspection items
Monthly	Robot arm mounting bolts * (F); tool mounting bolts * (F)
Every six months	Blue lids * (V); blue lid screws (F); flat rings (V); robot cable (V); robot cable connection (V); screws and bolts on joints * (F)
