Extra Information
Standard CaB Sizes
The manipulators are divided into three different sizes 300, 460 and 600. These sizes are the throat
dimensions of the boom in millimeters. Each size has a corresponding column. The different sizes are not
only limited in where it can fit, but also how far the boom can extend and how much load that can be put on.
Performance Categories
The system is divided into three different categories for performance:
S: Standard
Standard mechanical performance, no cable chain
A few options, camera-system, tacho-regulated speed and flux control
Only for Basic station 1
M: Modular
Standard mechanical performance, including cable chain for Columns and Booms
More than 20 options fully integrated, such as tandem, shift function, transport speed etc
Only for Basic station 1
C: Customized
Based on the same mechanical performance as the S- and M- model
Based on the same electrical system as the M- model
Includes everything that is not a S- or M- model such as:
Basic station 2, 3, and 4
Odd sizes (ex. 4.35 m x 5.15 m)
Option demands not offered in S- or M- model.
