ABSTRACT:
A transportation pallet system for mounting, transporting, and handling a workpiece, such as a prefabricated automobile seat, which facilitates the installation of the workpiece into a final product where the final installation process is accomplished by a computer-controlled robotic device. A base pallet formed by injection molding plastic has a honeycombed configuration of supporting ribs and supporting brackets. An intermediary footplate also formed by injection molding plastic secures the workpiece to the base pallet. Mounting holes located at the intersections of the honeycombed ribs secure the intermediate footplate to the base pallet at a precise location relative to a pair of precisely sized and precisely located datum holes, also within the base pallet. The datum holes allow the computer-controlled robotic device to locate the base pallet and the mounted workpiece with precision.
