*This conference session requires registration and payment.

This session explores the multitude of reasons why companies benefit from integrating these advanced robotic systems into their manufacturing processes. One key benefit lies in the realm of quality enhancement. AI-driven robots execute grinding and sanding tasks with unparalleled consistency and precision, significantly reducing errors and variations inherent in manual operations. AI- driven robots allow those benefits being deploy in a higher mix, lower volume, environment and therefore make this technology available for a much wider manufacturer base. Companies can optimize their resources and allocate savings towards innovation, growth initiatives or just stay ahead of the market by being competitive. In conclusion, the adoption of AI-driven grinding and sanding robots presents a strategic opportunity for companies to elevate their manufacturing capabilities. These robots operate continuously, reducing errors and minimizing rework while ensuring a safer working environment. Moreover, they boost productivity by handling repetitive tasks, freeing up human operators for more complex activities. With low-code programming and cost savings in labor and consumables, these robots offer a strategic advantage for companies aiming to elevate their manufacturing capabilities and stay competitive.
