The Challenge

At Claus Queck GmbH, manual deburring and grinding of flame-cut and plasma-cut parts had become a production bottleneck. The time-consuming, physically demanding process led to inconsistent quality and tied up skilled workers. At the same time, the company needed to consistently meet stringent quality standards.

The Solution

  • Delivery and commissioning of Teqram’s autonomous EasyGrinder grinding robot.
  • Fully automated deburring and grinding of flame-cut and plasma-cut parts.
  • Autonomous part processing with consistent contact pressure and process parameters.
  • Simple operation: operators select the desired level of surface preparation at the push of a button.
  • Reliable achievement of the P3 preparation grade required by Deutsche Bahn.
  • Seamless integration into existing production workflows without extensive changes.
  • Automation of physically demanding grinding tasks to reduce strain on employees.
  • Consistently precise processing of complex geometries and heavy components.

The EasyGrinder uses standard angle grinders to deburr and grind parts autonomously.

The Results

  • Repeatable surface quality that meets industry standards and can be documented.
  • Significantly fewer quality variations and less rework.
  • Greater production efficiency and process reliability.
  • Reduced physical strain on skilled workers and better protection of employee health.
