Layout considerations
When planning the layout of the integration plates, consider the following:
•
The assembled plates should be contained within the area of the table
surface. None of the plates should hang over the edges of the table surface.
•
If the plate assembly will straddle two surfaces, make sure the surfaces are
at the same height so that the plate assembly remains even and level.
Plate dimensions
The following table lists the different sizes of integration plates available.
Note the following:
•
Mounting surface column . The mounting surface is the area on which
robots and devices can be mounted (
1
).
When calculating the total surface area available for mounting robots and
devices, use the values in this column. For example, if you assemble two
12 x 12 plates, the area on which you can mount devices is
610 mm x 305 mm (24 in x 12 in).
•
Total dimensions column . The dimensions value is the total measurement
of the plate: the mounting surface plus the lip of the plate. The lip is the
12.7 mm (0.5 in) of ledge surrounding two sides of each plate (
2 ). When it
is between plates, the lip is part of the locking mechanism that keeps
adjacent plates together. When it is on the edges of the plate assembly, it
can be used to secure the plate assembly to the table surface or benchtop.
When calculating the total dimensions of the plate assembly, use the values in
the Mounting surfaces column and add 12.7 mm (0.5 in) to account for the lip
on two of the sides. For example, if you assemble two 12 x 12 plates, the total
dimensions will be 622 mm x 317 mm (24.5 in x 12.5 in).
