The FANUC Robotic Cell for Belt Grinding, Polishing, and Brightening represents a breakthrough in automated surface treatment technologies, specifically designed for processing a range of furniture hardware and bathroom fixtures, including furniture handles and shower hinges. With the continuous demand for high-quality finishes, especially in decorative and functional components, this robotic cell provides an efficient, flexible, and high-precision solution for grinding, polishing, and brightening metal parts used across diverse industries. This system combines advanced robotic technology, belt grinding units, and polishing systems to deliver flawless surface finishes on parts with varying geometries and materials.
At the heart of the FANUC robotic cell lies FANUC’s industrial robots, renowned for their precision, reliability, and flexibility. The integration of these robots with belt grinding and polishing units ensures that parts, such as furniture handles and shower hinges, receive a consistent and high-quality finish throughout the production process.
Automated Grinding: The grinding units work efficiently to remove material, deburr sharp edges, and smooth surfaces, ensuring that components like furniture handles are free from defects and imperfections. The use of abrasive belts ensures uniform material removal, which is critical for achieving a consistent finish.
Polishing and Brightening: After grinding, the robotic cell performs polishing and brightening to create a shiny, smooth, and visually appealing surface. This is particularly important for shower hinges and furniture handles, which require both functional durability and aesthetic appeal.
High Precision: The robotic arms, equipped with polishing and grinding tools, guarantee precision in every operation. The robots can handle complex geometries and intricate shapes without compromising surface quality.
The FANUC Robotic Cell offers exceptional versatility by supporting a wide variety of parts and finishing applications. It is designed to process components like furniture handles, shower hinges, bathroom accessories, and other fixtures with different sizes, shapes, and material types.
Multiple Surface Treatments: The cell can handle multiple processes in a single cycle, including deburring, grinding, polishing, satin finishing, and brightening. This makes it ideal for applications where multiple finishes are required, such as shower hinges, which may need both a satin finish for aesthetic appeal and a bright finish for visibility and corrosion resistance.
Adaptable Configurations: The system allows for quick changeover between different components, minimizing setup time and making it easy to process parts with varying geometries. This flexibility ensures that manufacturers can switch between jobs without significant downtime.
FANUC’s robotic cell is engineered for high production capacity, enabling manufacturers to achieve greater throughput and meet the demands of large-scale operations.
Simultaneous Processing: The system can process multiple parts simultaneously, maximizing output. For example, it can perform grinding, polishing, and brightening on multiple furniture handles or shower hinges in each cycle, improving overall production efficiency.
Automated Loading and Unloading: The automatic loading and unloading system streamlines the workflow, reducing manual intervention and ensuring that the production process runs continuously. The dual palletizing system facilitates the smooth transfer of parts between the cell, minimizing idle time and keeping production flowing without interruptions.
The FANUC Robotic Cell offers full control over grinding and polishing parameters, allowing manufacturers to adjust settings to meet the specific requirements of different parts and materials. This is particularly important for parts like furniture handles and shower hinges, which may require varied finishes depending on their design and function.
Tool Customization: The system supports different grinding wheels and polishing mops, allowing for tailored finishes based on the specific geometry of each part. For instance, furniture handles with intricate contours can be processed using specialized polishing tools that ensure a flawless finish without damaging delicate surfaces.
Variable Polishing Techniques: The cell can combine satin finishing for a matte surface with brightening for a polished, reflective finish. This ensures that every component meets the desired aesthetic standard, whether it's a furniture handle or a shower hinge.
The offline programming capability is a significant advantage, allowing manufacturers to prepare new jobs and optimize processes without interrupting production. This reduces setup times and enhances productivity by enabling faster transitions between product batches.
Job Preparation in Parallel: While the system is processing one batch of parts, operators can prepare the next set of programming instructions, ensuring that no time is wasted between product runs.
Flexible Adjustment: Offline programming also allows manufacturers to test and simulate new polishing configurations before executing them in real-time, ensuring the most optimal settings are used for each job.
FANUC’s smart calibration system ensures that the grinding and polishing operations are precise, even for complex and delicate parts. By incorporating integrated measurement systems, the robotic cell can detect and correct any deviations in the fastening or positioning of parts, ensuring that every part is processed accurately and consistently.
Real-Time Adjustments: The system can automatically modify robot trajectories to correct any errors in part positioning, ensuring that all components receive a uniform surface treatment.
Improved Quality: This leads to a high degree of quality control, ensuring that furniture handles and shower hinges meet both aesthetic and functional standards. The result is a consistent, homogeneous finish on all processed parts.
By automating processes that were traditionally manual, the FANUC Robotic Cell significantly reduces labor costs, improves consistency, and increases the overall profitability of production.
Energy Efficiency: The system’s energy-efficient design ensures that it consumes minimal power during operation, reducing ongoing operational costs.
Minimal Consumables: The robotic system uses minimal polishing compounds and abrasive belts, which lowers consumable costs while still achieving superior results.
Durable Components: The cell is built with high-quality components that are designed to withstand the demands of continuous production, reducing maintenance costs and increasing the system's overall longevity.
The FANUC Robotic Cell features a dual palletizing system, ensuring that the production process remains uninterrupted. Parts are automatically loaded and unloaded, eliminating downtime between cycles and improving overall efficiency.
Dual Palletization: One pallet is processed while the other is being loaded or unloaded, ensuring that the system is always in operation, reducing waiting times, and maintaining a continuous workflow.
Intermediate Manipulator: An intermediate manipulator handles the transfer of parts to and from the robotic system, further enhancing automation and eliminating the need for manual intervention.
This robotic cell is designed for versatile applications across multiple industries, including:
Furniture Manufacturing: For polishing and grinding furniture handles, knobs, and other hardware components, the robotic cell ensures high-quality finishes and precise surface treatment.
Bathroom Fixtures and Hardware: The system is also ideal for shower hinges, towel bars, bathroom accessories, and other metal parts requiring high-quality finishes.
