Method for equipping a mounting plate with equipping components of a switchgear and/or control system

A method for equipping a mounting plate with equipping components of a switchgear and/or control system, the method comprising the steps:

• reading planning data of the switchgear and/or control system by an automatic equipping machine, which has an equipping robot;
• extracting position data of at least one of the equipping components to be mounted on the mounting plate and/or at least one machining position of the mounting plate from the planning data;
• detecting a spatial orientation and/or a position of the mounting plate with an image processing system of the equipping robot;
• assigning the position data to at least one position on the mounting plate;
• and
• executing at least one machining step and one equipping step linked to the position on the mounting plate via the planning data at the position on the mounting plate with the equipping robot,
• wherein the detecting comprises detecting an orientation and/or a position of at least one borehole, at least one borehole pattern, or at least one breakout in the mounting plate and comparing at least one of the detected spatial orientation and/or position detected thereby with a target specification extracted from the planning data to determine if the detected orientation and/or position is correct;
• wherein the machining step is performed by machining at least one new borehole, at least one new borehole pattern, or at least one new breakout into the mounting plate with the equipping robot that matches the target specification;
• and
• wherein the equipping step is performed by equipping the mounting plate with the at least one equipping component.
