Active Compliance Force Device
The PushCorp AFD1200 Series Force Device is the most powerful and rugged tool in the product line. This unit was developed in response to customer's needs for increased force capacity and carriage stroke.
The AFD1200 Series is available in two configurations: AFD1200-1 Vertical and the AFD1200-2 Horizontal. The units are functionally identical, but differ in the orientation with which they attach to the robot, either vertically or horizontally. This allows you to optimize robot reach and dexterity for your particular application.
The AFD1200 Series coupled with the FCU1000 Controller use patented force control technology to provide incredibly accurate performance. This superior performance benefits you by immediately providing greater processing throughput with more consistent, higher quality results.
Here are just a few operations the AFD1200 Series, matched with the proper process equipment, can accomplish faster, more accurately, and with greater control than ever before:
Grinding (molds, weld beads)
Deburring (parting lines, chamfer)
Polishing (glass, wood, sheet metal)
Drilling/Chamfering (thru-hole, to-depth)
Weld Shaving
Any other process which requires an accurate, compliant, continuously adjustable applied force.
