Compliant Robotic Tooling Mitigates Risk and Delivers a Human Touch in Finishing Operations

Force-controlled blending or finishing operations typically rely upon human operators who can provide subtle compliance in grinding, deburring or polishing. Unfortunately, these operations create inherent risks for these workers—from injuries to repetitive motion challenges.

Replacing humans in finishing operations requires compliant robotic tooling that can offer the ideal power density to deliver operator safety and maintain product quality. Read this white paper to see how frameless servomotors are helping to transform finishing operations; mitigating operator risk while offering precision force compliance with a human touch.

Exoskeletons at Scale: Accelerating the Transition from R&D to Full-rate Production

The exoskeleton market is still in its infancy — but evolving quickly and ripe with opportunity. It’s a double-edged sword for OEMs who must identify the most impactful applications and crack the code on full-scale production, which presents a new set of challenges and considerations. Projects that seemed feasible during R&D and even LRIP can quickly become impossible at scale for a variety of reasons. So how can OEMs foresee (and avoid) issues that may arise as they ramp up production? Here, we’ll cover key tips and insights.
