# Integrated control unit

## Abstract

The present disclosure relates to a robot and a control unit for such a robot. The control unit is adapted to be arranged between a base of the robot and a structure to which the robot is to be fastened. The control unit comprises a bottom plate and optionally a sidewall, wherein the bottom plate is adapted to abut the structure, the bottom plate and/or the sidewall forming an inner surface of the control unit. The control unit comprises a control circuit comprising a processing unit having a heat dissipating surface, wherein the control circuit is arranged with the heat dissipating surface of the processing unit abutting the inner surface of the control unit.
