Mimic Sanding Solution

Automation of sanding applications have proven to be challenging as much of the organic movements required in completing these tasks are time consuming and difficult to program via traditional point to point methods. Additionally, the consistent application of force on any surface that isn’t completely flat adds another dimension of complexity to the process. The team at Nordbo Robotics has studied these issues and developed a system that addresses these common challenges and delivers a complete solution for automating your sanding processes. The UR+ Mimic Sanding Solution achieves this through a unique combination of technologies which when used together can be utilized by any operator regardless of their robotics experience. Most significant of these is the Mimic Sander Software which allows experienced technicians the ability to program the robot by demonstration. This is achieved through the integration of our force torque sensor based, dual handed Sander Joystick. Operators will be able to physically guide and record the movements of the robot and watch as it duplicates their actions. Also crucial is the Nordbo Active Compensation Unit, which measures and adjusts the delivered force ensuring that despite the angle, orientation or surface complexity, a consistent finish can be delivered. These innovations are all controlled and adjusted through a user-friendly interface tailored for sanding that utilizes touch screen interaction that users will find both easy to learn and easy to teach.

Nordbo Robotics Mimic software is the centrepiece of these systems. The Mimic software allows a user to program a robot by demonstrating the tasks, rather than inputting computer code. By putting the automation into the hands of sanding experts, businesses are able to augment efficiency and consistency, while at the same time increase the operators' safety.

The Nordbo Active Compensation Unit delivers additional value by giving these workers control over the applied pressure in any given process, which is a key factor in any sanding application. Using state of the art pneumatic technology users are able to not only measure, but adjusts the applied force in any section of the sanding process. This allows for unparalleled control over the entire application and delivers complete automation of this lengthy process.
