Material Removal Automation
Automate your grinding, polishing, deburring, and sanding applications with our leading solutions.
Our Approach to Material Removal Automation
We simplify robotic material removal by creating systems that fit your unique needs. By integrating robotic arms, tools, and software, we ensure smooth operation and reliable results.
Every solution is tailored to your process. We adjust tools, cutting settings, and techniques based on the material and workpiece details. This means greater accuracy, faster production, and less waste—helping you achieve better outcomes with less effort.
Benefits of Automating Your Material Removal Process
Streamlined Process
Eliminate ergonomic strain on employees performing dull, repetitive operations with hand tools
Employee Safety
Mitigate employee health risks from particle emissions (e.g. abrasive dust or chips)
Quality Control
More consistent quality of the workpiece final product, time and time again.
Increased Throughput
Reduction of workpiece processing time and increasing machining capacity
Material Removal Testing
Partnering with leading manufacturers like Schunk, our team of engineers are able to test your material removal application completely free of charge. Having a partnership with Schunk allows our team and our customers to gain access to an automation lab where we can put any application to the test. Through this process, we are able to deliver a clear line of site into what your automated process would look like in regards to feasibility, cycle time, tooling needs, and return on investment.
