Robotic systems assist in such applications thanks to their particularly enabling features. Typical grinding applications include a closed robotic cell to avoid particle dispersion in the surrounding area. A head-bearing robot is located inside as well as various other grinding machines. The robot picks the piece from the feeding area, drives it with precision through all processing stages and places it at the discharge area before it starts all over again by picking the next piece. Depending on the product, a suction system is put in place to keep the robotic cell clean. Robotic grinding is the only option for all related industries since production time is greatly decreased, maximum degree of safety is achieved and, most significantly, it offers flawless quality and consistency to end products. Only companies using robotic systems stand out from the competition, as they can produce optimum products at the lowest possible production cost.

The grinding star FAPI-STAR is made of highly flexible 4 mm wide offset slitted strips of high-quality aluminium oxide abrasive cloth laid reciprocally one on the other. Different grain sizes can be used. The strips can be fixed using a plastic flange or a sturdy rivet. Grinding stars may be assembled from individual elements in any desired width. Operation The desired working width automatically determines the number of grinding stars to be installed on a shaft or mandrel. The grinding stars must be broken on a sharp edge before work can begin. The speed is decisive when working with grinding stars. A higher speed increases stiffness of the grinding star, which increases the aggressiveness. In contrast, the full flexibility of the grinding star’s cloth can be used in the medium and lower speed ranges. The result is a very fine finish ideally suited for pre-grinding before waxing, polishing and painting. Applications Generally, grinding stars are the ideal tool for deburring or...

The flange connector is required for the use of grinding and polishing tools on a grinding and polishing machine with conical shaft. It makes it possible to change the tools used (contact wheels, polishing rings, felt wheels, flap wheels, etc.) on the grinding and polishing machine extremely quickly. Applications Tools equipped with a flange connector bushing are simply pushed onto the conical shaft and possibly aligned with a soft hammer made of plastic or copper. The soft hammer must also be used for dismantling in order to remove the tools from the conical shaft with simple and light blows. Too hard blows can damage the malleable cast iron flange bushing. Special feature In most cases, the flange connector is mounted on a motor shaft located to the right of the motor. However, since there are also grinding and polishing machines where the motor shaft is on the left, a malleable cast iron flange bushing with a left-hand thread must be used here. To tighten the nut of a...
