Abstract: A rotary table assembly for rotatably supporting a workpiece can include a table having a table top surface positioned in a first plane, where the table has an axis of rotation. The rotary table assembly can also include a gearbox fixedly connected to the table for precisely rotating the table, and a support frame for supporting the table. The support frame has a support surface spaced apart from the axis of rotation of the table at a first precise, predetermined distance. The support surface is positioned in a second plane at least substantially parallel to the first plane and spaced apart from the first plane at a second precise, predetermined distance. A robotic device can be interchangeably couplable with the rotary table assembly and another rotary table assembly, where the robotic device can perform operations based upon the first precise, predetermined distance and the second, precise predetermined distance.
