Pursuing the best in grinding automation. Faro Robotics' end effector.
FerRobotics
Equipping industrial robots with human-like touch sensitivity through high-speed automatic correction of contact force, automating polishing and grinding processes with the best quality! Dramatically improving management challenges and productivity.
FerRobotics Compliant Robot Technology GmbH has developed the unique ACT technology used in the UR+ model, ACF-K. It can be easily set up on the teaching pendant for Universal Robots UR10, UR10e, and UR16e. The end effector (ACF) utilizing ACT technology automatically compensates for changes in dimensional tolerances, curved shapes, and non-planar surfaces by rapidly adjusting the stroke length, ensuring constant contact with the workpiece at the set force. This technology increases the speed at which devices and robots can move along their trajectories, thereby enhancing processing speed and improving cycle times. Additionally, in robotic polishing and grinding, the ability to control the contact pressure through the stroke adjustments of the ACF eliminates the need to move the heavy robotic arm for corrections, further assisting in improving processing speed. 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
-
Using our patented technology, Active Compliant Technology (ACT), we provide the best solutions for robotic polishing and robotic grinding, equipping industrial robots with tactile feedback to enhance flexibility, reliability, and profitability in manufacturing environments more than ever before. The ACT optimized for robots automatically measures the required pressing force, instantly compensates for complex surface shapes, and enables processing with a constant 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 tailored to special requirements, ACT clearly contributes to efficiency improvements in production processes that have previously been impossible to automate. By confirming the performance of our ACT solutions, you can immediately feel the results. It brings overwhelming effectiveness to automated polishing and grinding (polishing, sanding, grinding, deburring, buffing, mirror finishing, etc.).
