The automation of polishing woodworking products with R-shaped designs is achieved using an end effector with automatic pressure correction control! It also compensates for gravitational loads, enabling the automation of skilled techniques (polishing, grinding) and 3K tasks that have been previously abandoned, by uniformly controlling the contact force on the workpiece through high-speed autonomous control.

Combination 2 of ACF-K + Orbital Sander. 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 allows for 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, it quickly and automatically adjusts to changes in dimensional tolerances, curved shapes, and non-flat surfaces of the workpiece by instantaneously extending and retracting the stroke, maintaining contact with the workpiece at the set force.
This technology increases the speed at which devices and robots can move along their paths, enhancing processing speed and improving cycle times. In robotic polishing, the control of contact pressure through the extension and retraction of the ACF itself eliminates the need to move the heavy robotic arm for corrections, further assisting in improving processing speed. Additionally, it automatically corrects tool load variations caused by gravitational changes due to the robot's angle, ensuring consistent contact pressure from any angle and enabling a finish without processing inconsistencies.
