Remotely set air pressure controls and maintains the constant axial force on the deburring cutter mounted in the Free Flying Piston (FFP). The axially compliant motion of the FFP allows the cutter to compensate for deviations in the part profile along the robot path.
The AC Deburring Tools use adapter plates which are easily customized for robotic, bench, or fixture mounting.
The cutting files mount to the unit using threaded shanks, and can be replaced easily and quickly without removing the tool from the robot.
The axial motion of the FFP and cutter allow fast and simple programming of the robot. The movement of the cutter compensates for changes in part tolerances, part misalignment, and robot path variation.
AC Deburring Tools are being used by hundreds of customers throughout the world. Customers include Pratt & Whitney, Nissan, Volvo, Rolls Royce, Caterpillar, Saab, General Motors, John Deere, and many others.
