Automating a deburring or surface finishing application is a smart, responsible, and
effective way to improve a manufacturing process. There is a serious need for the
automation of manual material removal and deburring tasks to help improve
employees’ health, combat manufacturing labor shortages, and increase product
consistency and quality. The historical roadblocks for automated material removal
are melting away as return on investment gets faster, more integrators and
manufacturers cultivate hands-on experience, and technology advances to make
processes easier.

Robots that are less expensive and easier to use, along with a growing network of
knowledgeable integrators and tool developers, creates abundant support and drive
for automated surface finishing. State-of-the-art, application-specific, end-of-arm
tooling helps users tackle more and more deburring and surface finishing
operations while software integrated robotic technologies help implement the new
end effectors.
