COSMAP Robotic Cell (IR)
Robotic cell for grinding/linishing with multi-axis grinding units
COSMAP Robotic Cell (IR) handles delicate and complex grinding/linishing work, with grinding units that rotate 0–180° and move on a controlled ball screw, so the robot settings can stay unchanged.

Overview
Grinding units that move with the robot
The Robotic Cell (IR) is designed for delicate and complex grinding/linishing operations, to raise their performance and output. The cells handle different grinding tasks, and special grinding units can change tools, from simple grinding discs to flap wheels or buffs.
Each unit has a controlled axis that rotates the grinding head from 0 to 180°. This helps the robot reach uneven surfaces and works around the robot arm when it is in the way. Each unit is also mounted on a controlled ball screw that manages working pressure, compensates for buff wear and repositions the unit when needed.
Because the unit itself moves back and forth, the robot settings do not need to change, which speeds up processing. Each cell can include an automatic loading/unloading system suited to the product, such as a double pallet, a belt conveyor or a vertical/drum loader, and cells can be single, double or triple.
Applications
What the Robotic Cell (IR) is used for
The cell is built for grinding/linishing work that needs flexibility and reach.
Uneven surfaces
Rotating grinding heads help the robot reach uneven surfaces.
Multi-tool processes
Switching between grinding discs, flap wheels and buffs in one cell.
