A method for changing at least one energy store of a vehicle and an energy store changing apparatus. The method includes steps for ascertaining the vehicle type and the provision of vehicle data relating to the ascertained vehicle type. The vehicle data includes data about the arrangement of the energy store in the vehicle. The position of the vehicle is ascertained on the basis of at least one physical reference point, and at least one energy store of the vehicle is changed.

Method for changing vehicle energy stores, and an energy store changing device

A manipulator-guided folding (hemming) tool () includes a frame () having a preferably roller-shaped folding element () and a connection () for connecting to a manipulator (), and a detecting device () for the loads that occur during folding. The detecting device () has an indicator () for the loads, which indicator is arranged on the folding tool (). The indicator is preferably designed as an optical indicator and is arranged in a tool area that is visible during folding.

Folding device and folding method

A screwing device () and a screwing method use a multi-member () robot () having a driven rotational axis. The robot (), on its last member (), carries a rotational device () with a rotational tool (). The rotational device is driven independently and is provided and designed for rapidly screwing a rotating part () on or off. The screwing tightening or untightening of the rotating part () is performed by the robot () and in particular by the robot end member ().
