Abstract
A multi-axis robot includes robot drives, a tool head, a drag chain for guiding flexible lines along at least a part of the robot up to the tool head, and an auxiliary system for moving a tool head-side end of the drag chain. The auxiliary system includes at least one auxiliary system drive for moving the tool head-side end. The auxiliary system drive is different than the robot drives. The multi-axis robot advantageously allows collisions between the tool-side end of the drag chain and the object to be treated or other objects in the vicinity of the robot to be avoided, ensuring that the surface of the object may be treated, in particular printed on by an inkjet print head, without disruption.
