Automatic and interlinked component process, loading/ unloading with robot or handling system provides an Efficiency boost for drag finishing and other integrated manufacturing process disciplines

摘要

Drag finishing technology is quite different when compared with conventional mass finishing systems and has been proven in numerous applications and in various industries that with highly efficient processing it can produce "bespoke" qualities in all sorts of finishing tasks such as deburring, polishing, edge breaking/radiusing or surface smoothing. Drag finishing produces excellent consistency with absolutely repeatable surface finishes. To further enhance this superb process for increased productivity, Rosler's Research & Development team were set the task of designing the automation of the clamping device / jig and setting of precise control parameters required for robotic loading and unloading. This has brought about outstanding process control and productivity progressions.
