High quality and consistent results in emerizing, polishing and finishing

In the finishing department your product is finished with the last working steps. This usually requires sanding, polishing or finishing work. Many companies have these applications carried out by employees and thus block valuable manpower. A collaborative robot takes care of these tasks so that you can increase your productivity and effectiveness.

What challenges does a collaborating robot face in sanding, polishing and finishing?

Application challenges

Consistent results

The integrated force control ensures consistent results when sanding, polishing and finishing, even on curved and uneven surfaces. The best results can be expected by applying a specific pressure.

Protection of employees

Protect your employees and leave these dangerous tasks to collaborating robots. Thanks to the collaborative properties of the robots, they can usually be used next to your employees without a protective device.

Flexible working methods

Often small series are produced. This is where another advantage of the lightweight robots from Universal Robots comes into play: their great flexibility. You can assign the collaborating robot to another workstation at any time and thus also produce small series.

Shortage of skilled workers

There is also a great shortage of skilled workers in the finishing department. As a result, not all order requests can be met and the potential is not fully exploited.
A collaborating robot must therefore do its job well and independently.
