Innovative Robotic Sanding in Woodworking

Shared by Andre Dagostin
The use of advanced robotics in the woodworking industry is transforming how polishing and pick-and-place tasks are executed. This is particularly evident in the smart sanding applications implemented by Comac Robótica.

Efficient and Consistent Results
The video showcases various pneumatic sanding tools mounted on jigs and collaborative robot arms in operation. These tools, along with the ENCY Robot, facilitate efficient polishing processes, as seen in the smooth finish applied to curved plywood frames. Each piece receives a uniform sanding, significantly reducing the time and cost involved while ensuring a consistently high-quality finish.

Enhanced Worker Safety and Flexibility
The integration of ENCY CAD/CAM software with robotic arms allows for automation of repetitive and labor-intensive tasks. This not only enhances worker safety by reducing physical strain but also increases the flexibility to adapt to different furniture designs. As emphasized by Andre Dagostin, such innovations are already enhancing productivity and quality in the Brazilian furniture industry.
