What is the difference between a product page and a solution page?
“A product page describes a robot. A solution page describes a task in your organisation and which systems handle it together – usually several, orchestrated through uGo+.”
United Robotics Group
United Robotics Group is a German robotics company.
Questions & answers
Which solution fits my organisation?
“The shift decides, not the technology. Value appears first where staff are hard to find and tasks repeat. A first conversation takes twenty minutes.”
Can robots be rented instead of bought?
“Yes, all systems are available for purchase and as a rental under Robot-as-a-Service.”
Where is data processed?
“On the device. No permanent cloud connection is required for operation, and data stays inside your organisation.”
Does a cleaning robot replace cleaning staff?
“No. It covers large, open floor areas reproducibly. Sanitary areas, patient rooms, edges and hand-contact surfaces stay with people – which is where hygiene is decided anyway.”
How is cleaning documented?
“Every task produces a record with area, time and result. These logs are available in uGo+ and can be exported for quality management and audits.”
Is this compatible with hygiene requirements?
“The robot performs routine cleaning of floor areas. Which areas, with which agents and at what frequency is set by your hygiene plan – the robot does not change that, it only documents it better.”
How much area can a cleaning robot cover?
“That depends on the machine, floor plan and furnishing. We establish realistic area performance during a site visit rather than promising catalogue figures.”
Can cleaning robots be rented?
“Yes, as Robot-as-a-Service with a monthly fee – often the practical route where service contracts have a fixed term.”
What does Robot-as-a-Service mean?
“You use the robot for an agreed monthly rate instead of buying it. Scope of service, one-off costs, contract term and integration work are set out in the quote.”
What belongs to the monthly rate?
“The quote defines that for your configuration. It states which software and service elements are included and which costs are charged once.”
Is purchase or use cheaper?
“That depends on the period of use, the number of units, the service scope, your budget structure and funding options. We work through both routes with your assumptions and show them openly.”
How long is the contract term?
“The term is set in the quote and follows from the purpose and scale of the project.”
Can this be combined with funding?
“Which form of procurement a programme requires differs by programme. We advise on the direction and provide the technical documentation for the application; the application and the responsibility stay with you or with your organisation.”
What happens in case of a fault?
“Availability, response times and the procedure in case of a fault are set out in the quote and in the contract.”
Is there funding for robotics in care?
“Depending on the type of institution, provider and federal state, there are funding and refinancing routes for digitalisation and technical equipment. Which of them fit your project is something we classify together; the application and responsibility stay with you or your provider organisation.”
Which is cheaper – purchase or rental?
“There is no blanket answer. Rental shifts risk and timing; it is not automatically cheaper. For short terms and pilots, rental usually works out better; for long use at one site, purchase does.”
What does the monthly Robot-as-a-Service rate cover?
“Hardware, software maintenance and service are considered together. The exact scope is fixed in the contract – including response times.”
Why are there no prices on the website?
“Because configuration, integration scope and service level decide the outcome. A figure without that context would be misleading and would not help you with budget planning.”
Can several sites procure jointly?
“Yes. For providers with several facilities a staged rollout is usual: one pilot, then expansion. That lowers risk and improves the terms.”
What tasks does a service robot take on in a care home?
“Transport of linen, material and meals, floor cleaning with documentation, service on the residential unit, and conversation, activation and reminders through the humanoid robot uMe.”
Do residents accept it?
“Experience from more than 500 units in operation shows that acceptance grows when the robot has a clearly recognisable task and staff explain it. That is why training and communication are part of every project.”
Does a robot replace nursing staff?
“No. It takes over routes, routine and repetition. Relationship, judgement and responsibility stay with people.”
Is funding available for care providers?
“Depending on facility type and region, funding and refinancing routes exist. We help identify which apply; the application stays with you or your provider organisation.”
Can a service robot be rented?
“Yes, as Robot-as-a-Service with a monthly fee from the operating budget – the usual route for a pilot.”
