Introduction
1.3 System Layout
ArcWorld 50/50S/52/52S
1.3 System Layout
The ArcWorld has two main assemblies: the Robot cell assembly and the
Controller base assembly.
1.3.1 Robot Cell Assembly
The Robot cell assembly is fully enclosed by safety fencing and
interlocking doors. The interlocking barrier doors allow the operator to
load parts at one station while the Robot is welding at the other station.
The Functional Safety Unit (FSU) supplies logic for providing a safety
zone that prevents the Robot from entering an open/occupied station.
