Abstract: A production station for vehicle body parts is configured in a modular manner and has at least two production cells (8, 10; 12, 14), each of which has a separate work area (16, 18; 20, 22). The work areas have uniformly disposed robots (64, 66, 68, 70) and receiving arrangements (32, 34, 36, 38, 40, 42) that interact with the robots. At least one transport arrangement (56) for required components (58, 60, 62) and workpieces (44, 46) is provided for both production cells (8, 10; 12, 14). A receiving arrangement store (24, 26; 28, 30; 110) with all of the receiving arrangements is assigned to each production cell (8, 10; 12, 14), and a transport arrangement (48, 50; 52, 54; 111) is provided for at least one production cell. The production cells are coupled to one another via a connecting axle (102) having at least one connecting robot (104).

Abstract: A balancing device for turbochargers comprises a base body having a centrally disposed receiver. A rotation element to be balanced can be axially inserted to hold the rotation element in the receiver such as to turn about its axis of rotation. A number of hydraulic cylinders are arranged around the central receiver on the base body for fixing a core assembly of the turbocharger in the central receiver. The base body is in the form of a decoupling plate having an inner plate section and a stationarily positioned outer plate section elastically connected to the inner plate section and surrounding the inner plate section. The decoupling plate has a number of peripheral slots resiliently decoupling the inner plate section from the outer plate section such that a number of separate holding sections are formed on the de-coupling plate.
