Universal Robots to Ring the NASDAQ Closing Bell for Launch of ROBO-STOX

Published on Nov 7, 2013

The UR5 robot arm from Universal Robots will ring the NASDAQ Closing Bell on Tuesday, November 12 to mark the launch of the ROBO-STOX™ Global Robotics and Automation Index ETF (Ticker Symbol: ROBO). The robotic bell ringing marks the first time a non-human performs this prestigious task.
To ring the NASDAQ closing bell, the UR5 robot arm was integrated with a three-fingered SDH gripper from Schunk, a German company which makes clamping technology. UR5 weighs only 40 pounds and can handle a payload of up to 11.3 pounds. The programming to ring the bell is through an intuitive 3D tablet touchscreen — or by just grabbing the robot arm to demonstrate the desired movement. This video shows UR5 in action.
