KESAT,\u00a0an industrial automation engineering\u00a0company\u00a0based in the Czech Republic, has been building custom robotic workplaces since 1991.<\/strong>\u00a0They specialize in supplying advanced robotic cells for grinding, sanding, and polishing to manufacturers across the EU. By integrating robotic grinding automation, they help their clients achieve consistent surface quality while lowering overall operating costs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Bottleneck<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The abrasive challenge with frequent reprogramming<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Surface finishing relies on a craftsman’s intuitive pressure. For KESAT\u2019s clients, translating that human touch into rigid\u00a0robot program\u00a0was incredibly difficult creating\u00a0an\u00a0operational roadblock on the factory floor.<\/strong>\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  • Complex cell deployment<\/strong>\u00a0
    Advanced\u00a0surface finishing requires fluid, exact movements. Manually plotting\u00a0the\u00a0intricate trajectories using a\u00a0traditional\u00a0teach pendant\u00a0can be\u00a0very slow.\u00a0<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • The high-mix penalty<\/strong>\u00a0
    KESAT’s customers deal with constant product variations. When a factory floor requires frequent changeovers, the time spent on manual\u00a0programming\u00a0often\u00a0outweighs the financial benefits of the automation itself.\u00a0<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Expensive overheads<\/strong>\u00a0
    Relying on\u00a0external programmers\u00a0for every\u00a0single product\u00a0variation drives up daily operating costs and destroys the ROI of the robotic\u00a0cell.\u00a0<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

    The Solution<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Empowering integrators with agile robot teaching<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
      \n
    • Brand agnostic upgrades<\/strong>\u00a0
      KESAT seamlessly integrates\u00a0RoboTwin\u2019s\u00a0technology directly into their\u00a0robotic grinding automation cells, instantly unlocking advanced motion-tracking capabilities for major OEMs like\u00a0YASKAWA and ABB.\u00a0<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n
        \n
      • Rapid trajectory generation<\/strong>\u00a0
        By equipping their setups with the specialized\u00a0RoboTeach\u00a0for grinding\u00a0tool, KESAT allows\u00a0their end-users to bypass\u00a0slow\u00a0programming\u00a0by teach pendant\u00a0entirely.\u00a0<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n
          \n
        • Translating craft into code<\/strong>\u00a0
          KESAT\u2019s clients do not need to hire\u00a0more\u00a0robot programmers. Their experienced polishers and grinders\u00a0physically guide the tool, and our\u00a0software instantly translates their movements\u00a0into robot\u00a0programs.\u00a0<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n
            \n
          • Agile multi-tasking<\/strong>\u00a0
            The standalone system empowers\u00a0existing workforce\u00a0to\u00a0adapt to frequent production changes on the fly. They can easily teach the robot a wide variety of tasks, including grinding, sanding, wire wheel polishing, and even robotic taping.\u00a0<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
