BF-X 200

Small, Efficient, Reliable

The BF-X 200 is the robotic system you need to automate surface finishing processes on parts under 200 mm. The machine is available in two options:

BF-X 200-i

An Individual Process
Choose one process: PROFILING or DEBURRING

 

BF-X 200-c

A Combination of Processes
Choose two or more processes: PROFILING, POLISHING or BLENDING

 

New Version of the BF-X 200-c enhanced by 3M

 Since 2020, 3M and AV&R have partnered and capitalized on their common expertise in abrasive and robotic process to propose high-performing solutions to the industry. 

The result is the new version of the BF-X 200-c which automates a wide range of abrasive processes. The system includes the most efficient tools selected by AV&R in a compact cell, enhanced by a selection of 3M abrasives, and powered by AV&R’s software (BrainWave).

Some Benefits:

  • Controlled environment reducing worker’s injuries
  • Compact cell easily integrated to your production line
  • User-friendly interface thanks to our software BrainWave – no programming skills required
  • Part loading using tray
  • Respect of tolerances according to the engineers’ design
  • Improve quality and consistency of your production
  • Increase throughput
  • Reduce abrasive consumption (up to 75%) and therefore its cost
  • Increases the life of your parts and reduces the amount of scrapped parts (MRO)
