Industrial Robot Risers
Heavy-Duty Industrial Robot Pedestal Bases for FANUC & Collaborative Robots
Industrial Robot Risers for Improved Reach & Performance
Robot risers (also known as robot pedestals or base frames) are essential for optimizing robot reach,
improving cycle times, and adapting automation systems to real-world production layouts.
At Universal Robotics Inc., we carry various models of robot risers —
from compact bases for small cobots to heavy-duty platforms designed for mid-size and large
industrial robots.
Whether you are building a palletizing cell, welding station, CNC tending system,
or packaging line, the correct riser height can significantly improve robot efficiency
and reduce mechanical strain.
What Is a Robot Riser?
A robot riser is a fabricated steel structure mounted between the robot base and the shop floor.
It elevates the robot to a precise height to:
- Increase vertical reach
- Improve palletizing patterns
- Provide better machine access
- Clear conveyors or guarding
- Reduce joint strain and improve motion efficiency

Height Range: 6″ – 24″
Ideal for CNC tending, inspection, and light assembly applications.
Mid-Size Industrial Robot Risers
Height Range: 12″ – 36″
Perfect for welding, packaging, and machine tending systems.
Heavy-Duty Large Robot Risers
Height Range: 24″ – 48″+
Reinforced steel construction for palletizing and high-payload robots.
Anchor-ready for industrial concrete floors.
Why Use a Robot Riser?
Improved Palletizing Efficiency
Elevating your robot improves stacking geometry and reduces extreme joint angles,
allowing smoother motion and faster cycle times.
Better Machine Access
For CNC machines or injection molding applications, a riser provides deeper access
into equipment while maintaining safe positioning.
Lower System Cost
Instead of upgrading to a longer-reach robot, a riser can often achieve the same
working envelope at a lower overall investment.
