ABSTRACT

The invention relates to a combination of a press brake and a serial
manipulator having at least six joints. The press brake includes a frame
arranged on a base surface; two beams for clamping press brake tools, said
beams being arranged in the frame and being movable towards to and away from
each other in a direction perpendicular to the base surface. The serial
manipulator includes a base, having a main plane, on which a first joint of
the serial manipulator is arranged, which first joint is rotatable around a
first axis perpendicular to the main plane. The serial manipulator is arranged
at a distance from the press brake; and the first axis of the serial
manipulator is tilted towards the press brake.
