  • Positioning arm for positioning and assembling systems and method for producing positioning arms
    Patent number: 6428907
    Abstract: Positioning arms for positioning and assembling systems are subjected to high accelerations and must therefore be made lightweight but nevertheless resistant to bending and twisting. The use of composite materials based on metal or ceramic foams and non-expanded materials for positioning arms in positioning and assembling systems allows these positioning arms to be lightweight and nevertheless to have high rigidity. Semifinished products are arranged in the non-expanded material, since a better connection between the semifinished product and material is ensured there than in the metal or ceramic foam.
