A game changer in grinding and polishing automation! The new standard in robotic polishing! In grinding and polishing processes that require skilled techniques, the difference in contact pressure (force) generated during processing is automatically corrected at high speed and controlled to maintain a constant contact force. Active Contact Flange (ACF).

The craftsmanship that has been given up until now (polishing, grinding) is being automated through uniform control using a high-speed autonomous control system for contact forces. Gravity loads are also autonomously controlled!

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.

We will not leave 3K jobs to the next generation of children. We will solve the shortage of skilled workers. Robot polishing that gives robots human-like senses through high-speed autonomous correction control of contact force.

FerRobotics' Active Compliant Technology automatically corrects the "difference" in contact pressure (force) generated during polishing and grinding processes, which require skilled techniques, at high speed. This technology enables consistent polishing/grinding at the set contact force, unaffected by variations in processing speed or gravitational load differences due to angles. Using an end effector (ACF) with ACT technology, the system rapidly and automatically adjusts to changes in the dimensional tolerances, curved shapes, and non-flat surfaces of the workpiece by instantly extending and retracting the stroke, maintaining contact with the workpiece at the set force. This technology can increase the speed of the device or robot's trajectory, thereby enhancing processing speed and improving cycle time. Additionally, in robotic polishing and grinding, the control of contact pressure through the extension and retraction of the ACF itself eliminates the need to move the heavy robot arm for corrections, further assisting in improving processing speed. Moreover, since it automatically corrects the tool load affected by gravity changes due to the robot's angle, it consistently maintains uniform contact pressure from any angle, enabling a finish without processing inconsistencies.

The end effector inherits the artisan's skill. It automatically adjusts the pressure (applied force) for polishing in an instant based on angle and workpiece distortion, achieving uniform pressure through automation.

FerRobotics Compliant Robot Technology GmbH has developed the ACF-K series, which focuses on collaborative robots using its proprietary ACT technology. It allows for easy exchange of hand tools such as orbital sanders, angle grinders, die grinders, and belt grinders. The series can accommodate various applications by replacing hand tools, enabling the automation of grinding and polishing processes without compromise. Seeing is believing! Please check our website or YouTube (FerRobotics) for example videos of applications. The ACT technology automates the grinding and polishing processes, which have been considered difficult to automate, by automatically correcting the load based on the dimensional variations and angles of the workpiece, completely controlling the pressing force for full automation. It is applicable for surface processing such as buff polishing, sanding, weld bead removal, deburring, scale removal, and paint stripping. This significantly improves production speed while maintaining high-quality standards. Benefits (Value Creation): - Tasks that can be performed by robots are assigned to robots, allowing human employees to be reassigned to creative work that only humans can do. - High-quality tasks with high reproducibility can be performed 24/7, 365 days a year.

Do you have any concerns or requests regarding wired bed exit sensors? × Tangling or tripping over wired cables × Cable disconnection or damage × Worrying about forgetting to turn the switch back on after temporarily stopping the sensor. × Wanting to be notified of bed exits even from a location far from the nurse call outlet. Such concerns can be resolved simply by connecting our wireless nurse call linked set to the sensor! Our wireless nurse call linked set allows you to connect bed exit sensors like "Ugo-kun," "Foldable Thin Matta-kun," "Ayumi-chan," and "Just Place Pole-kun" to transmitters and receivers, reducing wiring around the bed area, alleviating concerns about tripping or falling due to cables, and contributing to a tidier work environment. Furthermore, it enables the use of bed exit sensors even from locations far from the nurse call outlet, allowing for more flexible equipment placement.

Japan is one of the top 10 countries in the world with frequent earthquakes. The 2020 White Paper on Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism has also reported an increase in the probability of major earthquakes occurring. Regarding the Nankai Trough earthquake, the probability of an earthquake with a magnitude of 8 to 9 occurring within the next 30 years is estimated to be 70 to 80%. At Hotron, we recommend the introduction of seismic devices for earthquake countermeasures in buildings and equipment. The seismic device 'HK-2' is a product that automatically performs various controls that have been pre-set when it detects strong shaking equivalent to a seismic intensity of 5 lower or higher. For example, it can automatically execute actions such as: "Open automatic doors and gates to secure evacuation routes and access for emergency vehicles" "Transmit signals to the control room and stop facility equipment" "Unlock the keys to locked lockers" "Automatically play voice guidance" For more details, please download the materials or contact us.

The "HM-S6" is an embedded park sensor that detects vehicles through changes in magnetic flux and responds to various situations from passing to stationary vehicles.
