A clamping means system including a bearing device and clamping vices, which fit into the bearing device and respectively have on their base area machine coupling system and on their side faces and flanks a bearing receiving contour and a gripping receiving contour. The bearing receiving contour has the greatest play; the fit between the gripper and the gripper receiving contour is of moderate precision, while the precision of the machine coupling system is the greatest. The clear functional separation between the machine coupling system and the bearing receiving contour or gripper receiving contour allows a reliable low-cost system to be constructed. Furthermore, in the case of mixed partly automated systems, in which parts of the handling tasks are performed by the operator and other parts are performed by gripping robots, the handling is possible in an easy and intuitive way.

A cutting machine includes a processing chamber provided with a cutting device to cut a cutting object retained by an adaptor, a cleaning chamber provided with a cleaning device to clean the adaptor, and a conveyor to convey the adaptor to the processing chamber and the cleaning chamber.

The present invention relates to a system, comprising: a transport device 100 comprising a transport vehicle 110 which can be moved freely on a base area and a handling device 150 provided on the transport vehicle 110, a carrier for goods in transport 200 which can be received by the handling device 150 and includes at least one first alignment element 220, and a receiving apparatus 300 for receiving the carrier for goods in transport 200 which can be set up on the base area or arranged on a machine set up on the base area, wherein the handling device 150 is configured to hold the carrier for goods in transport 200 in such a way that, when the carrier for goods in transport 200 is inserted and/or exchanged on the receiving apparatus 300 by the handling device 150, the carrier for goods in transport 200 is kept movable relative to the handling device 150, and the receiving apparatus 300 includes at least one second alignment element 320 which, when the carrier for goods in transport 200 is inserted and/or exchanged, is configured to interact with the at least one first alignment element 220 of the carrier for goods in transport 200 for aligning the carrier for goods in transport 200 with the receiving apparatus 300.

An automation unit for handling component carriers has an enclosure for arranging components carriers within a first, a second and a third stacking space. The enclosure has a loading opening for the first stacking space, a transfer device for transferring component carriers between the stacking spaces, and a separating device to selectively separate or release the first stacking space inwardly. A safety system for an intervention area is at the loading opening to interrupt the operation of the automation unit if it detects an intervention. The safety system may switch to partial monitoring mode, to full monitoring mode after completion of an automated loading process or deactivate in a manual loading mode when the separating device separates the first stacking space. The safety system may switch to full monitoring mode before the separating device releases the first stacking space. The automation unit can be loaded both automatically and manually safely.
