ABSTRACT:
In a gantry arrangement or mechanical guidance assembly for an industrial robot, a carriage supporting the robot is mounted on an elongate guide element of circular cross-section extending parallel to the robot travel path. Rotation of the robot carriage about the circular guide element is prevented by the bracing of the carriage against an elongate guide element having a rectangular cross section, the bracing being effectuated by at least two rollers rotatably mounted to the carriage and rollably engaging the rectangular guide element.
