A robotic drilling device is subjected to an 800 N force at point C. This force is replaced by an equivalent force-couple system at point O. The equivalent force vector at point O is 800 N in the direction of OC. The equivalent moment about point O is 800 N*0.2 m, as the position vector from O to B is 0.2 m.
