A method, an installation and a system for processing optical workpieces in which workpieces are conveyed to individual processing apparatus or processing lines corresponding to an assignment. The respective assignment preferably takes into consideration assignment parameters, such as the availability and capability of processing apparatus and/or processing lines. The assignment that already has been carried out is examined before the actual or ultimate conveying and/or when there is a change in the assignment parameters and optionally is changed in a corresponding manner, taking into consideration the current assignment parameters, in order to adapt to current circumstances. As an alternative or in addition, jobs for processing workpieces are forwarded to the processing installations at different sites based on corresponding assignment parameters. Optionally, an examination and, as appropriate, a change in the assignment are made when new jobs or significant changes in the assignment parameters are detected.

Disclosed is an apparatus for the batch polishing of workpieces, the apparatus includes an annular cavity, in which several workpieces are mounted, magnetic abrasives, which are arranged in the annular cavity and used for polishing the workpieces, and multiple magnet sets, which are used for generating a magnetic field for the magnetic abrasives in order to remove a surface material of the workpieces, wherein each of the magnet sets comprises magnets arranged on both inner and outer sides of the annular cavity and configured to rotate about the axis of the annular cavity.

Disclosed herein are an apparatus of manufacturing a panel for home appliance by performing uniform surface processing on the panel and a method of manufacturing a home appliance by performing uniform surface processing on a panel. The apparatus of manufacturing a panel for home appliance includes a contacting roller configured to perform surface-processing on a panel that is to be processed; a pressing roller configured to press the panel toward the contacting roller; and a supporting roller configured to support a center middle portion of the contacting roller.

A method and associated system provides automated abrasive paint repair using automated abrasive paint repair devices that selectively sand, buff, and polish a substrate in response to received instructions generated by a controller. The controller receives coordinates of each identified defect in the substrate along with parameters describing characteristics of each defect, selects a sanding process, a buffing process, and/or a polishing process based on empirically derived rules established by skilled/expert human operators and the received parameters. The controller outputs instructions to cause the automated abrasive paint repair devices to execute the selected sanding process, buffing process, and/or polishing process using the received parameters. The empirically derived rules and parameters may be stored in a lookup table and/or updated by a machine learning module.

Disclosed is a device for automatically removing burrs from a riser of an aluminum alloy wheel. The device is composed of a frame, a clamping gear rack structure, a support plate, a servo motor and the like. When a clamping cylinder drives a first sliding plate to move, clamping wheels are controlled to center and clamp the wheel, and the servo motor controls the rotation of the clamping wheels, so that the wheel may rotate while being clamped. When a distance adjusting cylinder drives a second sliding block to move, a first sliding block and the second sliding block move synchronously under the action of a feed gear rack structure, so that a first deburring tool and a second deburring tool move synchronously to adjust the distance between them according to the diameter of a cap slot.

To change the direction of water flowing toward a painted surface so as to flow toward the center side of a hood, a water deflecting member is provided that extends toward the center side of the hood while extending toward the painted surface as seen in a state where automatic wet sanding is performed. Thus, water bouncing off the painted surface is less likely to scatter over a wide area of the painted surface, and sanding dust is also less likely to scatter over a wide area of the painted surface. As a result, it is possible to eliminate the need for the troublesome task of wiping off sanding dust remaining on the painted surface, and to achieve a quality finish on the painted surface.

A grinding machine for grinding a surface of an object is described which has a plurality of grinding brushes which are rotatably mounted about a brush axis of rotation, at least one brush carrier on which at least one of the grinding brushes is mounted and which is rotatably mounted about a carrier axis of rotation, and a conveying device for conveying the object at a feed speed through the grinding machine. The grinding machine has an input device and an output device. A brush rotational speed about the brush axis of rotation and/or a carrier rotational speed about the carrier axis of rotation and/or the feed speed is/are adjustable by the input device, and an expected grinding result can be output by the output device.

A method for coordinating an identification of a defect in the surface coating of a workpiece and processing same via grinding and/or polishing using at least one grinding or polishing tool that is moveable over the defect in an automatic and computer-controlled manner based a stored program is provided. The surface coating of the workpiece is automatically optically scanned and the scanned position data is detected in a database. The defect is identified by comparing the detected position data with stored target data of the workpiece. Possible movements of the grinding or polishing tool are simulated to process the defect. The setting data for the grinding or polishing tool determined in the simulation is forwarded to a master computer. The determined processing data for processing the defect is transferred to the grinding or polishing tool. The defect is processed using the grinding or polishing tool.
