A human-robot cooperation (HRC) workstation has a programmable industrial robot () and a manual working area () for a worker () in a region surrounding the industrial robot (). In the HRC workstation (), the working areas of the industrial robot () and the worker () overlap. Contact between the worker () and the industrial robot () is possible. The workstation () is divided into a plurality of different zones () having differently high levels of risk of hazard from the industrial robot () for the worker (). The industrial robot () is suitable for human-robot cooperation.

Workstation

A detection device and a detection method are provided for robot-induced loads that can act upon the human body in contact with the robot during a working process. The robot-induced loads, in particular forces, are measured by the measuring device () of an external sensing device (). The measuring device () is suitably positioned and oriented in this process in the working area of an industrial robot () by means of a positioning device ().

Detection device and detection method

A method for assembling motor vehicles, in particular personal motor vehicles having a self-supporting shell involves equipping the respective shell of the motor vehicle with a corresponding chassis and equipping the chassis with vehicle wheels at least before an end of a main assembly line has been reached.

Method for fitting motor vehicle suspension systems

A method for assembling motor vehicles in which a drive train, chassis and floor module are pre-assembled and then connected to a shell of the motor vehicle. The floor module is pre-assembled in a first pre-assembly process and the drive train and the chassis are pre-assembled in a second pre-assembly process. The floor module, the drive train and the chassis are combined and then connected to the shell of the motor vehicle.

Method for assembling motor vehicles

A floor module for a motor vehicle includes a floor shell, which can be fastened to a shell of the motor vehicle, and equipment with a plurality of variant-specific constructional units arranged on the floor shell. A method for assembling a floor module involves equipping a respective shell of the motor vehicle with a floor module with corresponding chassis and drive train.
