Abstract: An arrangement for the assembly and wiring of electrical components in switchgear construction, the arrangement comprising a robot with an end effector designed as a gripper, a mounting plate holding device, with which a mounting plate is held in a mounting position with respect to the robot, and a component supply in the access area of the robot, via which components to be mounted on the mounting plate are provided for removal by the robot, wherein a controller of the robot has machine data for controlling the robot including position data for the arrangement of components on a mounting plane of a mounting plate to be equipped, wherein the robot has an optical imaging system which is adapted to detect an orientation of a mounting plate with respect to the robot, the controller of the robot being adapted to provide the position data with an offset representing the orientation of the mounting plate with respect to the robot as a function of the detected orientation. A corresponding method is further described.

Abstract: A method for manufacturing an electrical switchgear, comprising: a. providing planning data relating to an electrical switchgear to be manufactured, said planning data comprising at least geometric data of the electrical switchgear to be manufactured; b. determining required processing steps for manufacturing the electrical switchgear according to the planning data; c. assigning the processing steps to at least one processing machine of a plurality of processing machines according to at least one selection criterion; and d. performing the processing step with the at least one processing machine to which the processing step has been assigned.
