Abstract

See full text

A handling device is provided for opening a flap portion of a component part to be coated, in particular for opening a door or hood of a motor-vehicle body component part in a painting installation. The handling device includes a handling robot with a robot arm and a gripper mounted on the robot arm. The gripper is configured for engaging an engagement region or grip region on the flap to be opened, to enable the handling robot to open the flap with the gripper. The handling device further includes a sensor for non-contact sensing of the position of the gripper relative to the flap, to enable the gripper to be positioned relative to the engagement region on the flap. The sensor measures the distance from the handling device to the outside of the flap to be opened.
