Model: S2-TM-LD – Robotic collaborative grinding machine

From Manual Grinding to Flexible Automation

Many grinding and finishing operations are still performed manually today.

Not because automated solutions are unavailable, but because real components rarely behave exactly as they do on a drawing.

Different geometries, dimensional variations, changing production batches and demanding surface quality requirements often make traditional rigid automation unsuitable.

As a result, many manufacturers find themselves choosing between the flexibility of manual processing and the productivity of automation.

Where S2-TM-LD Fits In

S2-TM-LD was developed to eliminate this compromise.

The machine combines a collaborative robot and two independent abrasive units within a compact and fully integrated structure.

Its purpose is to automate grinding and finishing operations while maintaining the flexibility required to handle variable production, small batches and components with different geometries.

The result is a more consistent finishing process, reduced operator workload and improved productivity.

Two Abrasive Stations, Greater Process Flexibility

At the heart of the machine is the dual abrasive unit configuration.

Having two abrasive stations available allows different operations to be performed within the same production cycle or the use of different abrasive tools without continuous changeovers.

This increases machine versatility while reducing non-productive downtime.

Depending on the application, the machine can perform:

• Grinding
• Deburring
• Surface preparation
• Satin finishing
• Technical surface finishing

within a single workstation.

Integrated Collaborative Robot

The collaborative robot is fully integrated into the machine and manages the positioning of the workpiece in relation to the abrasive tools.

This configuration ensures precise movements, high process repeatability and straightforward programming.

Collaborative technology reduces the complexity typically associated with traditional robotic cells, making automation more accessible and easier to implement.

Designed for Real Production Environments

S2-TM-LD has been developed for industrial applications where surface quality, production consistency and operational flexibility are essential.

The machine can be used on a wide range of materials, including:

• Stainless steel
• Carbon steel
• Brass
• Aluminum
• Zamak

and can be configured according to specific production requirements.

When to Choose S2-TM-LD

S2-TM-LD is the ideal solution when:

• Manual operations limit productivity
• Consistent finishing quality is required
• Grinding and finishing operations need to be automated without complex installations
• Production flexibility must be maintained
• Dependence on highly specialized manual labor needs to be reduced

Simple Automation, Consistent Results

S2-TM-LD combines the flexibility of collaborative robotics with the robustness of an industrial machine.

It transforms traditionally manual grinding and finishing operations into a controlled, repeatable and productive process while maintaining the quality standards required by modern manufacturing environments.
