Automatic aluminium air tank polishing robot with FANUC R-2000i, force sensor control, coarse and fine polishing brushes, rotary table system for truck air tank surface finishing manufacturer.
Contact Dingzhu for FANUC air tank polishing robot price. CE-compliant, force-controlled, EU-standard solution.
This automatic polishing robot system is engineered for polishing round aluminium air tanks with pre-mounted attachments. A FANUC R-2000i robot equipped with a force sensor and component rotation drive picks up two tanks from the rotary table, performs coarse polishing with two brushes, then fine polishing with two additional brushes, and returns the finished components. The rotary table rotates 180° for the next batch, with manual loading and unloading by a system operator. Fully enclosed with CE-compliant safety technology including light curtains and safety gate, the system is designed for up to 10,000 tanks per year in two-shift operation, delivering consistent, high-quality surface finishing for industrial manufacturers.

Polish round air tanks with pre-mounted attachments, reaching all accessible surfaces with round polishing brushes for a consistent finish.
Achieve smooth surface quality on brake reservoir tanks where accessibility is limited, using force-controlled polishing for uniform pressure.
Adapt the polishing process for various round tank geometries with flexible brush counts, positions, and customizable parameters based on pre-testing.
The rotary table with dual stations handles two tanks per cycle, ideal for high-volume two-shift production reaching up to 10,000 units annually.
Q: What robot is used in this air tank polishing system?
A: The system uses a FANUC R-2000i robot with 6 controlled axes, reach of over 2,500 mm, payload of more than 150 kg, and accuracy of ±0.05 mm, controlled by an R-30iB Plus system.
Q: What products can this polishing robot process?
A: It is designed for round aluminium air tanks with pre-mounted attachments, polishing all accessible surfaces with round polishing brushes. The process can be adapted for other round tank geometries.
Q: What is the production capacity?
A: The system is designed for up to 10,000 tanks per year in two-shift operation. A precise statement depends on preliminary tests during plant development.
Q: How does the polishing process work?
A: The robot gripper grabs two tanks from the rotary table, pre-polishes them with two coarse brushes, then fine-polishes with two additional brushes, and places them back. The table rotates 180° for the next cycle.
Q: What safety features are included?
A: The system is fully enclosed with protective walls, safety gate with security lock, light curtain at the rotary table, special work area monitoring sensors, and emergency stop buttons — all designed for CE conformity.
Q: Does the scope of supply include training and commissioning?
A: Yes. The scope includes mechanical and electrical design, system assembly, robot programming for two tanks, technical commissioning, and a three-day operator briefing including acceptance at our premises.
