Abstract

See full text

A system for processing a workpiece includes a milling platform, a workpiece handling robotic arm (WHRA), and a spindle robot arm (SRA). The WHRA has a holding tool adapted to move the workpiece from an input staging area to the milling platform, and from the milling platform to an output staging area. A base of the WHRA, the input staging area, the output staging area are all positioned on a same side of the milling platform. The SRA has a milling tool and is adapted to mill the workpiece when supported on the milling platform. The system may include a processor configured to control the WHRA to move the holding tool to a release position or orientation based on positional data of the workpiece generated by contact position sensors, and to move a robotic arm to position vacuum pods on the milling platform, based on the geometry of the workpiece.
