Less waste and scrap during material removal

Get professional help with deburring, grinding, milling, drilling and other material removal tasks. A collaborating robot makes your tasks more flexible and efficient. By equipping the robots with an integrated force/torque sensor, consistent processes and precise tool placement are possible. As a result, less waste and scrap is produced.

What challenges does a collaborating robot face in deburring, grinding, milling, drilling and other material removal tasks?

Application challenges

High precision

High precision and efficiency are particularly important for deburring, grinding, milling and drilling. By equipping the new e-Series Cobots with force/torque sensors, consistent and precise processes are possible.

Lack of skilled workers

There is also a great shortage of skilled workers in machine feeding. As a result, not all job requests can be handled and the potential is not fully exploited. A collaborative robot must therefore do its job well and independently.

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 smooth-running robots from Universal Robots comes into play: their great flexibility. You can assign the collaborating robot to another workstation at any time.
