I am not quite sure what you mean by AS.

ROS does support several industrial robots. UR script is nothing but sending move commands over TCP socket. The scripts are written in python using socket library. I find it quite rigid as everything is hardcoded. Yes, you can use ros sockets, as well to do the same. I haven't used KRL, however, I think the scripts could be written in python and sent over ros sockets.

For more adaptivity ROS community now supports UR drivers, which makes it great to program a UR, and also opens up opportunities to use vision and motion planning and other aspects, done very easily.

Here is getting started with Universal Robot. This is supported by ROS-Industrial.

Kuka Robot is supported as well by ROS Industrial. Link
