A game changer in grinding and polishing automation! Leaving no 3K jobs for the next generation. Solving the shortage of skilled workers. Building a polishing robot system that equips robots with human-like sensory capabilities through high-speed autonomous correction control of contact force!

Automation of the artisan's techniques (polishing, grinding) and hazardous tasks that have been given up until now, with high-speed autonomous control and contact force control. Dramatic improvements are expected in the end effector.

FerRobotics' Active Compliant Technology automatically corrects the "difference" in contact pressure (force) that occurs during polishing and grinding, which require skilled techniques, at high speed. This technology allows for consistent polishing/grinding at the 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 quickly and automatically adjusts to changes in the dimensional tolerances, curved shapes, and non-flat surfaces of the workpiece by instantaneously extending and retracting the stroke, maintaining contact with the workpiece at the set force. This technology can increase the speed of the equipment and the robot's trajectory, thereby enhancing processing speed and improving cycle times. Additionally, in robotic polishing and grinding, the ACF controls the contact pressure through the extension and retraction 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, since it automatically corrects the tool load affected by gravity changes due to the robot's angle, it maintains a uniform contact pressure from any angle, enabling a finish without processing inconsistencies.

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 gravitational loads, allowing for consistent polishing/grinding with the set pressing force. This technology can increase the speed at which devices and robots move along their trajectories, thereby improving processing speed and 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 correction, which further assists in improving the processing speed of robotic polishing. Furthermore, it automatically corrects tool loads due to gravitational changes based on the robot's angle, ensuring a consistent pressing pressure from any angle and enabling a finish without processing irregularities.

In civil engineering sites such as mountainous areas and construction sites, it may be necessary to use wooden boards on slopes or inclined access roads. Hyper CLT boards are civil engineering materials utilizing wood CLT, which can be laid not only on flat ground but also on sloped terrain. They can be used for temporary roads, access routes, heavy machinery entry paths, and measures against muddy conditions, creating a driving environment that takes advantage of the unique surface characteristics of wood. The 5×10 board weighs approximately 230 kg, and the 5×20 board weighs about 460 kg, making them lightweight and easy to install and remove even with small machinery, which is a notable feature for maneuverability in narrow sites. This wooden board is registered as a technology under the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism's NETIS system as "TH-250021-A," and can also be utilized for safety measures and innovative ideas in public works.

Metal cracks are one of the concerns in equipment maintenance operations. Repairs using conventional welding methods can alter the base material around the crack due to heat, leading to residual stress and deformation, which always carries the risk of "crack recurrence" or "secondary damage." Hinode Waterworks 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 with heat. Repairs can be performed 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.

● The production time for cast prototypes can be shortened! Since model making is not required, the production time for prototypes, which previously took about a month, can be significantly reduced. ● Model costs can be reduced! By directly producing sand molds from 3D data, there is no need for model production costs. If changes to the model are necessary, they can be addressed by modifying the 3D data. ● Similar products with different shapes and dimensions can be prototyped simultaneously! Different products, such as similar shapes or varying dimensions, can be molded at the same time in one molding process. This allows for the verification of multiple types in a short period.
