FerRobotics ACF Series

last updated:Aug 18, 2024

FerRobotics Compliant Robot Technology GmbH 日本リモートオフィス
FerRobotics Compliant Robot Technology GmbH 日本リモートオフィス
  • Official site

The craftsmanship that has been given up until now (polishing, grinding) is being automated through uniform control using a high-speed autonomous control system for contact force. Gravity load is also autonomously controlled!

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 enables 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 instantly and automatically compensates for changes in dimensional tolerances, curved shapes, and non-flat surfaces by rapidly adjusting the stroke, 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. Additionally, in robotic polishing and grinding, the ACF controls the contact pressure through the expansion 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 tool loads affected by gravity changes due to the robot's angle, ensuring consistent contact pressure from any angle and enabling a finish without processing irregularities.

    We provide the best solutions for robotic polishing and grinding that equip industrial robots with a sense of touch using our patented technology, Active Compliant Technology (ACT), enabling greater flexibility, reliability, and profitability in manufacturing environments than ever before. The ACT, optimized for robots, automatically measures the required pressing force, instantly self-corrects for complex surface shapes, and allows for processing with a consistent 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 experiencing the performance of our ACT solutions, you will immediately feel the results. It brings overwhelming effectiveness to automated polishing and grinding (polishing, sanding, grinding, deburring, buffing, mirror finishing, etc.).

The best solution for robot polishing.

The craftsmanship that has been given up until now (polishing and grinding) can be automated through uniform force correction using a high-speed autonomous control system for contact force. Gravity loads are also autonomously controlled! Even the polishing of turbine blades, which requires skilled techniques, can be automated with ACF.

  • Product news

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 the set contact force, unaffected by variations in processing speed or gravitational load differences due to angles. Using an end effector (ACF) with ACT technology, it quickly and automatically adjusts to changes in dimensional tolerances, curved shapes, and non-planar surfaces by instantaneously extending and retracting the stroke, maintaining contact with the workpiece at the set force. This technology can increase the speed of devices and robots, thereby enhancing processing speed and improving cycle times. Additionally, in robotic polishing and grinding, the control of contact pressure through the extension and retraction of the ACF itself eliminates the need to move the heavy robot arm for corrections, further assisting in improving processing speed. Moreover, it automatically corrects tool load variations caused by gravity changes due to the robot's angle, ensuring a consistent contact pressure from any angle, enabling a finish without processing inconsistencies.

  • Product news

FerRobotics' Active Compliant Technology automatically corrects the "difference" in contact pressure (force) that occurs during processing in polishing and grinding, which require skilled techniques, in relation to dimensional tolerances, curved shapes, and non-flat surfaces of the workpiece, at high speed. It also automatically compensates for gravitational loads, allowing for consistent polishing/grinding with a set contact force. End effectors equipped with this technology solve management challenges. This technology can increase the speed of devices and robots, thereby improving processing speed and cycle time. Additionally, in robotic polishing and grinding, the ability to control contact pressure through the expansion and contraction of the ACF itself means that there is no need to move the heavy robot arm for corrections, which further assists in improving the processing speed of robotic polishing. Furthermore, it automatically compensates for tool loads affected by gravity, which changes with the angle of the robot, ensuring a consistent contact pressure from any angle and enabling a finish without processing inconsistencies. Seeing is believing! Please check our website or YouTube (FerRobotics) for application example videos.
