■ Robot
The robot (see Figure 1-8) moves cartridges among the storage cells, drives, and CAP.
The robot, behind the front door, consists of the:
• Theta for lateral movement
• Z drive for vertical movement
• Hand to mount and dismount cartridges
Most of the components are mounted on the Z shaft. The hand, mounted on the Z
carriage, moves up, down, and around the shaft to access the cells, drives, and CAP.
The camera, on the hand, reads the bar code volume numbers on the cartridges, and the
library and CAP calibration targets.
See “Robot” on page A-4 for more information.
