Polishing acrylic glass with a robot. Automatic pressure adjustment, high-quality finish!
FerRobotics ACF-K
Equipping industrial robots with human-like sensory perception (tactile sense) 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 a UR+ model, ACF-K, using its proprietary ACT technology. It allows for easy setup on the teaching pendant with Universal Robots UR10, UR10e, and UR16e. The end effector (ACF) utilizing ACT technology automatically compensates for changes in the dimensions, curved shapes, and non-planarity of the workpiece by rapidly adjusting the stroke, ensuring consistent 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 robot polishing and grinding, the ACF controls the contact pressure through the stroke adjustments, eliminating the need to move the heavy robot arm for corrections, which further assists in improving processing speed. Furthermore, it automatically compensates for tool load changes due to gravity based on the robot's angle, maintaining uniform contact pressure from any angle and enabling a finish without processing inconsistencies.

Applications/Examples of results
Automation of various manufacturing lines is possible not only for processes such as polishing, grinding, finishing, sanding, polishing, and deburring (burr removal) in the automotive industry, aerospace industry, shipping, railways, casting and forging, construction materials, infrastructure materials, containers, furniture, glass, interior design, wind power generation, and turbines, but also for handling, assembly, adhesion, and inspection processes.
Detailed information
-
We provide the best solutions for robotic polishing and robotic grinding that equip industrial robots with a sense of touch using our patented 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 consistent 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 that meets 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 will immediately feel the results. It brings overwhelming effectiveness to automated polishing and grinding (including polishing, sanding, grinding, deburring, buffing, and mirror finishing).
