June 30, 2023 Workbenches for COBOTS with T Slot Tabletops

Industrial workbenches with unique Aluminum T Slot Surfaces provide COBOTS a place to work.

Isel USA Inc is proud to announce the biggest innovation in industrial workbenches since the invention of the drawer – Isel USA is pleased to offer industrial workbenches with Aluminum T Slot Surfaces and backs. A popular application is a worksurface for cobots and robots to make load and unload stations. A popular accessory for the workbenches are mounting plates for popular COBO models. This innovation is possible because of the wide table plate extrusions with T Slots produced by Isel USA. These table plates are available in a number of thicknesses and widths up to 375mm offering a variety of choices and characteristics for the tabletop surface. The most obvious advantage is that parts can be fixtured where needed without having to drill and tap holes – no more “oops”. In addition, if the configuration requirements change, all that needs to be done is to loosen a few T nuts, reposition the parts and tighten back down. Reconfiguration can now be done in minutes without the need for precision measurements.

The Isel USA table plates are precision extruded using proprietary methods that produce flat extrusions with minimal twist and bow. Many of our table plates are then machined flat on both sides. Machined  table plates are also available in a variety of widths up to 375mm (14.75”) and lengths up to 3m. Isel recommends solid profile extrusions for workbench applications that involve heavy parts that can “ding” the table surface and hollow profile extrusions for applications that involve lighter parts. The hollow profile extrusions are thicker for a given weight/meter and consequently have greater resistance to bending moments.

Another unique feature of the Isel workbenches is that they are completely made of aluminum, except for the assembly hardware, and are thus ideal for applications that require nonmagnetic work surfaces.

Workbenches are available in 3 standard sizes up to 1.5m x 1m and in custom sizes up to lengths of 6m. The depth is available in custom sizes of 250mm increments. Other options include adjustable pedestal feet or lockable swivel casters. The standard height for workbenches is nominally 750mm (about 30”) but this can of course be increased or decreased as needed.
