Pursuing the best in grinding automation! Faro Robotics' end effector! By enabling industrial robots to have human-like senses (tactile) through high-speed automatic contact force correction, we automate grinding and polishing processes with the best quality! Dramatically improving management challenges and productivity!

FerRobotics Compliant Robot Technology GmbH has developed the UR+ model ACF-K using its proprietary ACT technology. It allows for easy setup on the teaching pendant for Universal Robots UR10, UR10e, and UR16e.
The end effector (ACF) utilizing ACT technology automatically compensates for variations in the dimensions, curved shapes, and non-planar surfaces of the workpiece by rapidly adjusting the stroke length, ensuring consistent contact with the workpiece at the set force.
This technology increases the speed at which devices and robots can operate, thereby enhancing processing speed and improving cycle times. Additionally, in robotic polishing and grinding, the ability to control the pressing force through the stroke adjustments of the ACF eliminates the need to move the heavy robotic arm for corrections, further assisting in improving processing speed. Furthermore, it automatically compensates for tool load changes due to gravity as the robot's angle changes, maintaining a consistent pressing force from any angle and enabling a finish without processing inconsistencies.
