The robot cell is fitted in front of the loading doors of the machine tool. A rail system anchored to the floor enables the robot cell to be moved in relation to the machine tool for fitting and maintenance works. Three zero indexing points on the rail system enable the robot cell to be fixed in a precise location after being pushed back into the working position.

A torsion-resistant steel frame forms the basis for all parts fitted to and incorporated in the robot cell. The robot cell is equipped with an all-round protective cladding. A maintenance door and a loading/unloading door give access to the robot cell.

The feed and removal of the workpieces is by workpiece carriers of a format of max. 600 x 400 mm. The workpiece carrier magazine consists of slide-in components that, depending on the workpiece height, can be adjusted individually by means of a grid system.

Depending on the workpiece height, up to 15 slide-in components can be used. The handling of the workpiece carriers is by a pallet changer. The pallet changer fetches the workpiece carriers with unmachined parts from the slide-in components and positions them on the working level of the robot for removal of the workpieces and insertion into the machine tool. Once processed, the workpiece carriers with finished parts are replaced in the slide-in components. 

The robot cell may be fitted with an optional divider to separate the loading space from the working space of the robot, thus enabling the workpiece carrier to be loaded and unloaded during a work process.

The robot control unit is built into the frame, so that the whole unit only requires a space of 1,200 x 1,400 m plus 1,000 mm room for manoeuvre.

The operation and programming of all the robot cell functions is via a compact, user-friendly manual programming unit with touch screen.
