Imagine robot polishing that suits your company through FerRobotics' application example videos! We are uploading a wealth of robot polishing application example videos on the official FerRobotics YouTube channel. Solve management challenges with automatic polishing using high-speed automatic pressure correction!

Automating polishing and sanding processes that require uniform pressure with a consistent applied force dramatically improves finish quality and cycle time.

Orbital polishing kit using the unique ACT technology developed by FerRobotics Compliant Robot Technology GmbH. ACT automatically corrects the "difference" in contact pressure (force) that occurs during processing in polishing and grinding operations, which require skilled techniques, in response to dimensional tolerances, curved shapes, and non-flat surfaces of the workpiece, at high speed. It also automatically corrects for gravitational load, allowing for consistent polishing/grinding at the set pressing 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 control of pressing pressure is achieved through the expansion and contraction of the ACF itself, eliminating the need to move the heavy robot arm for corrections, which further assists in improving the processing speed of robotic polishing. Furthermore, since the tool load affected by gravity, which changes with the angle of the robot, is also automatically corrected, it maintains a uniform pressing pressure from any angle, enabling a finish without processing inconsistencies. Seeing is believing! Please check our website or YouTube (FerRobotics) for example application videos.

At construction sites, temporary parking lots may be established for workers and construction-related vehicles. On unpaved ground, mud and ruts can easily occur due to rain, which may hinder vehicle access. Hyper CLT mats are civil engineering materials that utilize wood CLT. By laying them in temporary parking lots, a suitable environment for vehicle passage and parking can be created while protecting the ground. They can be laid only in the necessary areas, and after the construction is completed, they can be removed and repurposed for temporary roads or access routes. The 5×10 panels weigh approximately 230 kg, and the 5×20 panels weigh about 460 kg, making them lightweight and easy to install and remove even with small machinery, allowing for changes in parking space. Additionally, they offer benefits unique to wood, such as glare reduction, noise reduction, and CO2 fixation. They are registered as a technology with the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism under NETIS as "TH-250021-A," and can be utilized for the development of temporary parking lots and innovative public works.

Metal cracks are one of the concerns in equipment maintenance operations. Conventional welding repair methods can change the base material around the crack due to heat, leading to residual stress and deformation, which always carries the risk of "crack recurrence" and "secondary damage." Hinode Water Supply Equipment Co., Ltd.'s "Mechanical Stitching Method" is a new technique that allows for the repair of metal cracks without applying heat. By using special bolts and reinforcement plates, the crack is physically removed without affecting the base material at all. Repairs can be made even in environments where open flames cannot be used. Since no heat is applied, the disassembly of equipment is minimized. For more details, please contact us or download the catalog.
