Hey Joe - I'd be interested in more info here. Typically I'd imagine there is some form of safety device keeping the door locked closed until the control system sends an unlock signal. If you require access mid cycle to turn a part without an driven axis that can do this, I'd expect the robot to go to a safe position, the process to reach a safe condition and a control signal to allow the door to unlock. However, based on the specifics of the system this may be a different set up. Feel free to give one of the Fortress team a call. Scott Mohr is the rep for New York. (859) 578-2390 Rob
