FerRobotics Compliant Robot Technology GmbH List of Products and Services

FerRobotics' Active Compliant Technology automatically corrects the "difference" in contact pressure (force) that occurs during polishing and grinding processes, which require skilled techniques, at high speed. This technology allows for consistent polishing/grinding at the set contact force without being affected by variations in processing speed or gravitational load differences due to angles. Using an end effector (ACF) equipped with ACT technology, it instantly and automatically compensates for changes in the dimensional tolerances, curved shapes, and non-flat surfaces of the workpiece by rapidly adjusting the stroke. This ensures that contact with the workpiece is maintained at the set force. This technology enables an increase in the speed at which devices and robots can move along their paths, thereby enhancing processing speed and improving cycle times. Additionally, in robotic polishing and grinding, the ACF controls the contact pressure through the expansion and contraction of its stroke, eliminating the need to move the heavy robot arm for corrections, which further assists in improving the processing speed of robotic polishing. Furthermore, it automatically compensates for tool load variations due to gravity changes at different robot angles, maintaining a consistent contact pressure from any angle and enabling a finish without processing inconsistencies.
