ZhilianhaiCase: Metal Deburring and Polishing
Case outline
| Item | Detail |
|---|---|
| Process | Deburring castings and polishing surfaces |
| Problem | Manual work is dirty and inconsistent |
| Approach | Robot with floating spindle, force control and extraction |
| Outcome | Consistent finish and lower rework |
Implementation notes
- Extraction must be designed with the cell or abrasive dust reaches the machine.
- Consumable life is the main operating cost, not electricity.
- Part variation drives the need for force control rather than position control.
Results depend on the part, consumable and parameters. Validate with production samples.
