We can automate the turbine blade polishing, which requires skilled techniques, with ACF!
FerRobotics ACF Series
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.

Detailed information
-
We provide the best solutions for robotic polishing and robotic grinding that equip industrial robots with tactile sensing using our patented Active Compliant Technology (ACT), enabling greater flexibility, reliability, and profitability in manufacturing environments than ever before. The ACT optimized for robots automatically measures the required pressing force, instantly compensates for complex surface shapes, and allows for processing with a consistent pressing force. It can also respond to sudden opposing forces, such as when the target workpiece moves. As a standard tool and as a custom package product that meets special requirements, ACT clearly contributes to efficiency improvements in production processes where automation has previously been unattainable. By confirming the performance of our ACT solutions, you will immediately feel the results. It brings overwhelming effectiveness to automated polishing and grinding (including polishing, sanding, grinding, deburring, buffing, and mirror finishing).
