At Booth #B13053, THG Automation’s URW-2LF Collaborative Laser Welding System leveraged a UR robot and an IPG fiber laser to offer cleaner, faster welds with minimal heat distortion—plus laser-based pre-cleaning and discoloration removal for superior aesthetics and workflow simplification.</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px;">At UR’s booth, finishing and grinding solutions also took center stage, as PushCorp paired a UR30 robot with the STC2002 servo spindle and AFD120 active force device, enabling automated, uniform surface finishing that adapts to part irregularities. Ferrobotics demonstrated its cobot active force control (ACK-F), designed for robots with payloads of 8 kg and above. The demonstration cell operates flexibly with UR robots, enabling users to easily attach and program up to 15 different finishing tools on site. By combining Ferrobotics’ real force control technology with the intuitive operation of Universal Robots, the solution provides the ideal entry point for first-time users while also supporting customers who want to scale their finishing operations.</span></p>
