OnRobot

Material Removal

Automate repetitive sanding and finishing. Maintain consistent force, speed, and surface contact across every part while reducing manual work, dust exposure, and process variation.

Consistent finish on every part
Maintain controlled speed and contact force throughout the process for repeatable sanding, polishing, and finish across changing surfaces.
Reduce demanding manual work
Move repetitive sanding and polishing away from operators, reducing exposure to vibration, fine dust, and physically demanding finishing work.
One tool, many surfaces
Automatically finish flat and curved parts across wood, metal, plastic, and stone with adjustable speed and programmable process control.

In the field

Electric sanding with consistent speed and no compressed air

The OnRobot Sander replaces pneumatic sanding infrastructure with an all-electric tool. Adjustable speed, optional force/torque sensing, and automated grit changing help create a simpler and more repeatable finishing process.

10,000 RPM Maximum Sander rotational speed
>90% Potential operating-cost reduction from eliminating compressed air
127 mm Maximum sanding-pad diameter
<5s Tool change with Quick Changer
Case studies

Real deployments, real numbers

Manufacturers are using automated sanding to shorten finishing time, improve consistency, and reduce dependence on repetitive manual work.
