OmniClean® FT Robotic Grinding System

Weld grinding is the removal of excess stock from the weld itself - a process that often results in ergonomic strain on the worker, slower production as well as grinding results that vary. Today, the typical fabricator may have various forms of automation on their floor, but the weld-grinding department remains a manual process, due to cost, product mix or perceived complexity of automating. However, as businesses continue to face the challenge of finding and retaining labor for these manual roles, automating a grinding process has become increasingly relevant in the metal fabrication industry. To resolve these issues in the manufacturing industry, Lincoln Electric has teamed up with the abrasive expert 3M in the release of the new OmniClean robotic grinding system!
