Robotic Finishing
Robotic Finishing
Flawless finishes don't have to be hard.
Force-controlled robotic finishing holds constant contact pressure on flat and contoured surfaces, so mirror and brushed finishes repeat part after part without over-polishing, burn-through, or a reject at final inspection.
The Problem
The Problem
A bad finish scraps a part you already paid for
Finishing is the last operation. Every defect here costs you the whole part.
Swirl marks and uneven grain
Hand pressure wanders, and the scratch pattern wanders with it. On a mirror or brushed surface your customer sees every inconsistency, and the part comes back.
Over-polishing and burn-through
Hold too long or press too hard on an edge and you cut past spec. There is no rework on a part that is already undersized or burned through.
Your finish depends on one person
Your best polisher sets the standard and nobody else quite matches it. When they are out, so is your quality, and the skill is nearly impossible to hire.

Customer STORY
Customer STORY
70% more throughput, three shifts a day
“Our productivity has probably increased 60-70%. We're able to meet demands as the main thing, running it all three shifts, and the thing runs nonstop.”
Gupta Permold Corporation automated its casting finishing after running into labor skill gaps and turnover.
Productivity rose 60–70%, parts per shift nearly doubled, and the cell now runs across all three shifts without stopping.

How to get started
You don't have to work out buff selection, compound, and contact pressure on your own. We prove the finish on your parts before you commit to anything.
Talk to our engineers
Send us the part, the material, and the finish grade you have to hit. A PushCorp application engineer walks the process with you, with nothing to buy.
Prove it in our Demo Lab
We run your real parts with the right spindle, media, and force setting, then tune pressure and cycle time until the finish repeats.
Run it in production
Every part leaves the cell at the same finish grade, your best polisher's standard becomes the floor, and final inspection stops being a gamble.
