If you plan to reuse the slip- sheets or to restack the process boards with slipsheets separating them, you will need extra trays to hold the sheets. Once you have all these resources prepared, all that's le to do is to install the bot and create the routine that the bot will run through. Conclusion Setting up your wet process for automation is quite simple and the most it requires is just Figure 2: Mounted loader bot next to an angled panel tray.
