ROBOTIC POLISHING
Automated polishing is an effective way to increase throughput and part quality.
As with most automation tasks, some key indicators indicate that automation may
be beneficial.
Those include things like having a current bottleneck at the finishing stage,
requiring more
consistent performance, and a need to increase safety around the polishing line.
Polishing robots typically produce at a higher rate than human operators.
This can speed up the finishing process which can remove the bottleneck.
In addition, since robots follow programmed steps, they offer a higher level of
consistency
than human operators. Finally, if safety is a concern, relocating human
operators from a dangerous
task like polishing can help to reduce safety incidents.
