Abstract
An installation for processing or assembling components, which comprises a succession of transport and work stations. Each station comprises a housing member including a lower base frame and an upper base frame, at least one of the housing members supporting a straight conveying track for a workpiece carrier carrying the components and at least one of the housing members supporting intersecting conveying tracks for the workpiece carrier, the conveying tracks including vertical and lateral guides for the workpiece carrier. According to the invention, the housing members have the same dimensions in length and width, and the width of each housing member is shorter than the length, the housing member base frames having vertical side walls extending along the length and the width, a continuous fixing rail extending along the vertical side walls of the lower base frame, fixing rails extending along the entire length of the vertical side walls of the upper base frame extending along the width, and fixing rail sections extending towards each other along about a third of the length of the vertical side walls of the upper base frame extending along the length, and a forward feed for conveying the workpiece carrier along the tracks.
