Descripción general & Casos de uso
Able Hardware designs and manufactures custom robot bases, arrendador, pedestals, and welded cell frames that deliver stable, precise platforms for industrial robots, cobots, and automation peripherals. Built to metric specs with export-ready QA, our assemblies combine stiff welded structures with precision-machined datum pads and anchoring patterns to keep your robot exactly where your program expects it—shift after shift.

Why this solution for robotics & automation environments
A robot’s accuracy is only as good as the structure beneath it. Our welded base and riser solutions increase stiffness, elevate reach, and improve line-of-sight while controlling vibration and thermal effects. Leveling pads (M20–M30) and precision shims enable quick installation; cable trays and pass-throughs simplify routing; datum pads allow CMM verification; and guarding/fencing interfaces speed cell integration. See related capabilities at custom metal frames, soldadura automática, y recubrimiento en polvo.
Typical applications in robot cells (bases, arrendador, cell frames)
- Robot bases and risers to set height/reach for handling, soldadura, palletizing, or inspection
- Cell frames with integrated cable management, utility rails, and guarding interfaces
- Pedestals with grout pockets, slotted anchor plates, and masked bonding points (ESD/ground)
- Utility skids for controllers, pneumatics, and power distribution beneath or beside the robot

Tipos & Geometría
Common assemblies for robotics (bases de robots, arrendador, pedestals, cell frames, utility skids) & bandas de dimensionamiento
- Robot bases: low-profile frames with heavy plates and leveling pads; típico 600–1200 mm square footprints.
- Risers/pedestals: altura 200–1000 mm with internal stiffeners; top pad machined and drilled per robot model.
- Cell frames: modular sub-bases for multi-robot cells, with guarding and service interfaces.
- Utility skids: RHS/plate structures supporting valves, power, and cooling on a mobile or fixed frame. Sizing is driven by robot footprint, dynamic loads, and anchoring strategy (PCD, slot ranges, grout pockets). Provide your target vibration/stiffness or allowable tip/tilt—our engineering support will size sections accordingly.

Preguntas más frecuentes
Q1. Which materials do you recommend?
Carbon steels Q235/S235 o Q355/S355 offer the best stiffness-to-price. Choose 304/316 stainless for hygiene/corrosion exposure, o 6061/6082 aluminum for weight-sensitive risers.
Q2. What stiffness/levelness targets are typical?
Common guidance is pad flatness ≤0.5–1.0 mm y parallelism ≤0.5–1.0 mm across mounting pads, with overall squareness ≤1.0–1.5 mm/m. We’ll size sections to meet your deflection limits.
Q3. How tight can you hold PCD and datum tolerances?
Laser-cut holes and CNC-machined datum pads routinely achieve ±0.1–0.2 mm location on PCDs depending on size; we verify with MMC and provide reports.
Q4. What weld class do you use?
isible/critical joints to YO ASI 5817 Clase B, general frame joints to clase C, unless your spec requires otherwise.
Q5. Which coatings and masked grounds can you provide?
Polvo (typ. 70–100 μm), enchapado de zinc, e-carro, or paint. We mask grounding/ESD points per drawing and can add labels for bonding.
Q6. What are the MOQ and lead time?
Prototypes welcome; series MOQ depends on size and coating. Typical lead times: 2–4 weeks (prototype), 4–7 weeks (series).
Q7. What drawings do you need for quoting?
Provide L×W×H, robot footprint and PCD, target tolerances (flatness/parallelism), sistema de recubrimiento, and NDT/QA documents required.
