An industrial robot is being successfully used to position a diffraction detector system at the DIAD beamline at Diamond Light Source. Weighing a total of 139 kg, the detector system can be positioned with a linear repeatability of <19.7 µm and a rotational repeatability of <16.3 µrad. The detector position stays stable for a 12 h period with <10.1 µm of movement for linear displacement, and <3.8 µrad for rotational displacement.
