Disclosed is a reversing machine that reverses a substrate upside down. The reversing machine includes: a first arm pair configured to mount a substrate thereon; a second arm pair facing the first arm pair; an opening/closing mechanism configured to open/close the second arm pair so as to grip the substrate mounted on the first arm pair; and a rotating mechanism configured to rotate the first arm pair and the second arm pair around a predetermined axis that is set inside the first arm pair and the second arm pair and extends along an extension direction of the first arm pair and the second arm pair such that the substrate is reversed upside down.

A wheel corner polishing device includes a station switching system, a valve hole polishing system, a bolt hole polishing system and a rim and cap section synchronous polishing system. The wheel corner polishing device can automatically polish four positions including bolt hole corners, a valve hole corner, outer rim corners and cap section corners of a wheel via upper and lower stations and coordination of the systems.

The present invention provides a polishing apparatus for a panel which comprise a carrier, a disk which is rotatably arranged on a top surface of the carrier and a polishing mechanism. A plurality of trenches is located on the disk, and the polishing mechanism is used for polishing the panel disposed in the trench. The present invention further provides a method for polishing a panel. The present invention can polish batches of batches at one time. During the polishing process, the current panel is polished, and just turn the turntable to a suitable position to switch to the next panel to continue the grind process and repeat the process until all the panel polishing is completed. It reduces the polishing pause time between multiple panels and improves the polishing speed. It also avoids the blocking risk of the buffer panel zone.

A method for protecting a user of a power tool from the effects of a suddenly occurring imbalance, and to a power tool having a disk-shaped tool for carrying out the method. The power tool has at least one acceleration sensor which is configured to detect vibrations which occur during the operation of the power tool. The vibration values determined can be evaluated and compared with specified limit values, wherein the power tool can be switched off if the vibration values exceed a corresponding limit value. By switching off the power tool, which can be achieved in various ways, the power tool affords optimum user protection against the effects of a suddenly occurring imbalance that may occur, for example, in the event of a defective tool of the power tool.

A sander apparatus for use with a drill press having a chuck defining a drill chuck axis. The sander apparatus includes a base assembly and a sander assembly supported by the base assembly, the base assembly locating the sander assembly in a predetermined location relative to the drill press chuck, in which a central pin axis of the sander assembly is aligned with the drill chuck axis. When a portion of an upper shaft of the sander assembly is secured in the chuck, rotation of the chuck about the drill chuck axis causes corresponding rotation of a body element of the sander assembly about the central pin axis. The base assembly supports the sander assembly in the predetermined location thereof as a workpiece is engaged with one or more abrasive elements on the body element while the body element rotates about the central pin axis.

The present disclosure discloses a device for cutting connection of multi-piece module electrode which includes a stand, the stand is provided with a workbench and the workbench is connected with a height adjusting device. The device further includes an angle grinding device, the angle grinding device includes a polishing shaft and an angle grinder, the angle grinder is arranged on the polishing shaft, and the angle grinding device is provided with a saw blade. According to the characteristics of the module electrode, the angle grinding device is matched with the workbench to implement simultaneous electrode disconnecting operation of multiple electrodes of the module, so that the device not only has higher efficiency and better cutting effect, but also is suitable for universal saw blades, saves the cost, and is safer.

A disc changing system for a robotic defect repair system is presented. The system has a first abrasive disc and a second abrasive disc. The first and second abrasive discs are coupled to a liner. The system includes an abrasive disc placement device configured to automatically: remove the first abrasive disc from the liner, transport the first abrasive disc to a robotic tool of the robotic defect repair system, and place the first abrasive disc on a backup pad coupled to the robotic tool. The system also includes an abrasive disc remover configured to automatically remove the first abrasive disc after receiving a removal signal. The system also includes a controller configured to send an instruction to the disc placement device to remove, transport and place the first abrasive disc, instruct the robotic tool to conduct an abrasive operation. The controller is also configured to send the removal signal. The controller is a processor and the instructions are stored on a non-transitory computer-readable medium and executed by the processor

A sanding system is presented that includes a tool with a motor which, when actuated, drives movement of a drive shaft. The system also includes a backup pad coupled to the drive shaft. The backup pad is configured to receive an abrasive article. Movement of the drive shaft causes movement of the abrasive article. The system also includes a compliant damping unit configured to provide variable compliance for the tool when the abrasive article contacting a worksurface. The system also includes an electronic controller that receives a system operating condition and sends a signal to the compliant damping unit based on the system operating condition.
