An era where skilled techniques are performed by robots! Surface polishing of non-planar turbine blades is also done by robots.

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 a set contact force, unaffected by variations in processing speed or gravitational load differences due to angles.
With the end effector (ACF) utilizing ACT technology, it instantly and rapidly compensates for changes in dimensional tolerances, curved shapes, and non-flat surfaces by adjusting the stroke's extension and contraction, 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 times. In robotic polishing, the ACF itself controls the contact pressure through stroke adjustments, eliminating the need to move the heavy robot arm for corrections, which further assists in improving processing speed. Additionally, it automatically compensates for tool loads that change due to the robot's angle, ensuring a consistent contact pressure from any angle, enabling a finish without processing inconsistencies.
