Product Description
Dual-Station Robotic Faucet Body Grinding Machine
The DZ Dual-Station Robotic Faucet Body Grinding Machine is purpose-engineered for high-volume sanitary ware manufacturers producing brass and stainless steel faucet bodies requiring consistent surface preparation for electroplating. Two FANUC M-10iD/12 robots work at independent grinding stations, each equipped with dual sand belt modules for progressive rough-to-finish processing.
One station handles grinding of faucet body parting lines, gate vestiges, and casting flash removal using P80-P120 abrasive belts, while the parallel station performs finish grinding with P240-P400 belts to achieve uniform surface roughness below Ra 1.6μm across all visible surfaces.
The system achieves throughput of 60-80 faucet bodies per hour depending on part geometry and required surface finish specification, replacing up to 4 manual grinding operators per shift with consistent automated quality that reduces plating defect rates by 60%.
Key Features
- Dual Independent Grinding Stations: Two FANUC M-10iD/12 robots process faucet bodies simultaneously, each with dual sand belt modules for rough grinding and finish grinding in a single clamping. Parallel processing doubles throughput compared to single-robot cells.
- Faucet-Specific Fixturing: Custom-designed fixture nests accommodate widespread, centerset, and single-hole faucet body geometries. Pneumatic clamping ensures secure hold while quick-change fixture design enables part changeover in under 10 minutes.
- Progressive Abrasive Processing: Station one handles parting line removal and casting flash grinding with coarse belts, while station two performs finish grinding for plating-ready surface quality. Sequential grit progression from P80 through P400 achieves consistent Ra 1.6μm surface finish.
- Automatic Belt Tension Control: Pneumatic belt tensioning with real-time force feedback maintains optimal contact pressure of 50-200N throughout the abrasive lifecycle. Automatic compensation extends belt life by 35% compared to fixed-tension systems.
- Centralized Dust Extraction: A 2500m³/h dust collection system with extraction hoods at both stations captures 98% of grinding particulates. Pulse-jet filter cleaning enables continuous operation without manual filter maintenance.
- Pre-Plating Surface Quality: Consistent surface preparation reduces plating rejection rates by eliminating surface defects that cause nickel and chrome adhesion failures. In-process surface inspection verifies quality before parts proceed to plating lines.

Applications
This dual-station grinding machine serves sanitary ware manufacturers producing brass and stainless steel faucet bodies in high volumes for kitchen faucets, bathroom basin mixers, shower valves, and bathtub fillers. Foundries supplying faucet castings to plating operations achieve value-added surface finishing in-house, reducing customer rejection rates and improving margin capture.
The system integrates into automated production lines with incoming raw castings processed to plating-ready condition and transferred via conveyor to electroplating stations. Contract manufacturers serving multiple faucet brands utilize the quick-change fixture system to process diverse faucet geometries without extended downtime between customer orders.
Packaging & Quality Assurance
Each system undergoes factory acceptance testing including throughput validation on customer-supplied faucet body samples, surface roughness verification using profilometry, and 48-hour continuous run reliability testing. The system ships partially disassembled in reinforced export crates with all fixture nests protected in foam-lined cases.
DZ application engineers perform on-site installation, fixture calibration, and process parameter optimization for each faucet geometry. The 12-month warranty covers both robots, grinding stations, and dust extraction system with optional quarterly abrasive consumption analysis and fixture condition inspection services.
