Modular Design
Why: The construction environment is dynamic and requires adaptable solutions.
How: The CONCERT robot’s modular design allows it to be quickly reconfigured on-site to meet the specific demands of different tasks, such as sanding, painting, and material handling.
Automating Surface Finishing
Why: Traditional sanding is labor-intensive and time-consuming, often leading to inconsistent results and worker fatigue.
How: The CONCERT robot automates the sanding process, ensuring uniform surface finishing with minimal human intervention.
The innovative CONCERT robot was showcased live, a versatile platform designed for various construction tasks. The focus at the event was on the sanding application, demonstrating how the robot can significantly enhance efficiency and precision in surface finishing.
Benefits of Robotic Sanding
Consistency and Precision
The robot delivers a consistent finish, eliminating human error and variability.
Increased Productivity
Automating repetitive tasks allows human workers to focus on more skilled activities.
Worker Safety
By handling hazardous tasks, the robot reduces the risk of injuries on site.
