For quality control of this detector a five-axis measuring robot was designed and created in collaboration with the company Xtralis AG and the company geting AG. Parts were manufactured at the NTB, the controller unit (PLC, NC) and the interface to the used test software were also programmed. After assembly of the prototype at the NTB and its successful start at the Getting AG, two more robots have been produced for the company. These were also constructed and mounted at the NTB. The robots were proofed and certified in accordance with the swiss electrical safety criteria. At the moment the measuring robots perform their task of final test of the ADPRO PRO models in China.
