Palletizer Base Specifications 

When building a palletizer setup there are many constraints to consider influenced by the choice of 
robot. The following guidelines have been developed to provide an overview of the recommended 
dimensions used to build a palletizer application. 

 

 

3.1.

 

Robot orientation 

 

The rotation of joint 1 to joint 6 of the AUBO robot is from -175° to +175°.  This limited rotation must 
be  taken  into  consideration  when  installing  the  robot.    If  mounting  the  robot  base  in  a  wrong 
position, the robot will be unable to reach all necessary positions when palletizing.  

The power plug of the robot base is located at 175° degrees and therefore indicates the endpoint of 
rotation. When mounting the AUBO the power plug should point towards Pallet 1 as illustrated in 
figure 3.
