EyeT+ Adapt Finishing is a vision system and automated toolpath generation solution that is aimed at grinding, polishing, sanding, deburring, and trimming. The system generates toolpath trajectories from the 3D reconstruction of the workpiece. This system eliminates the need for point-to-point programming and enables the automation of complex processes applied to diverse parts.
EyeT+ Adapt’s software integrates intelligent algorithms with 3D vision. In just a few steps—piece reconstruction, trajectory generation, and execution—manual procedures transformed into fully automated, high-efficiency cycles, without requiring expert robot-programming skills.
Key advantages include:
- Setup times reduced from hours to minutes, making it an ideal solution for high-mix/low-volume production;
- Automatic adaptation to the actual shape of the part, compensating for process deviations;
- Enhanced final quality and repeatability; and
- Eliminates the need for dedicated fixtures.
Among the leading applications for this system are sanding, polishing, grinding, deburring, and trimming. In robotic sanding, the system allows automatic sanding toolpath generation, and it manages periodic disc replacement cycles. It enables automatic polishing toolpath generation, and ensures that the entire surface is optimally covered. For grinding, EyeT+ Adapt Finishing allows automatic programming of grinding and chamfering operations, managing different tools (even compensated) to adapt to different materials. Deburring includes automation of either complex 3D objects such as cast iron or aluminum moldings, or laser-cut sheet metal. And for trimming, EyeT+ Adapt Finishing automates robotic trimming work cells, with particular strength in the processing of rubber, plastic or composites, e.g. in carding of rubber soles.
