摘要

The method involves utilizing a swing tray (2) for each of body shell sides (3) to position the shell side before a welding robot, where the tray is suspended to a structure of a building. A gripping robot (5) is utilized at a determined terminal. A body shell side and swing tray positioning unit (20) is utilized for carrying out the positioning of each shell side during end of work cycle on the preceding shell side, where the positioning unit is positioned with respect to the welding robot and is different from the gripping robot. An independent claim is also included for a system for positioning a body shell side of a motor vehicle in a fabrication line.
