Robotizing the removal of welding beads. FerRobotics' autonomous force control end effector achieves reduced cycle times and high-quality finishes in robotic polishing. Available for heavy grinding, standard grinding, and small part grinding.

In the removal of welding beads that requires skilled techniques, FerRobotics' ACT technology performs high-speed automatic correction control of the "difference" in contact pressure (force) generated during processing, allowing for consistent polishing/grinding with the set pressing force.
With the end effector (ACF) utilizing this ACT technology, it instantly adjusts to changes in the dimensional tolerances, curved shapes, and non-flat surfaces of the workpiece by rapidly and automatically correcting 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 time. Additionally, in robotic polishing and grinding, the ACF controls the pressing pressure through the extension 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 corrects the tool load affected by gravity, which varies with the robot's angle, ensuring a consistent pressing force from any angle and enabling a finish without processing inconsistencies.
