Collaborative Robot Random Orbital Sander
The OnRobot Sander is an electric random orbital sanding tool for collaborative robots, designed for automated sanding, polishing, buffing, and surface cleaning. It operates without compressed air and is configured directly through the robot interface, supporting consistent surface finishing in collaborative robot cells. The OnRobot Sander is intended for surface-finishing tasks where repeatable motion, speed control, and process consistency are required.
Typical uses include:
- Sanding and surface preparation
- Polishing and buffing operations
- Cleaning and light finishing processes
- Automated finishing tasks on collaborative robots

Electric Random Orbital Sanding
The tool uses a random orbital motion to reduce visible sanding patterns and support uniform surface finishes. Rotation speed is software-controlled, allowing adjustment based on material type and desired finish.
Key characteristics:
- Electric operation with no compressed air
- Random orbital motion
- Software-controlled speed adjustment
- Designed for collaborative robot payload and safety limits
Software Integration and Path Creation
The OnRobot Sander is configured through robot-side software. The datasheet specifies support for multiple path generation methods, including:
- Hand-guided path recording
- Shape-based paths
- Point-based paths
This reduces external programming and simplifies deployment in new or changing applications.
Collaborative Robot Compatibility
The OnRobot Sander is listed by the manufacturer as compatible with a wide range of collaborative and industrial robot platforms.
Commonly referenced robot brands include:
- Universal Robots
- FANUC
- ABB
- KUKA
- Doosan Robotics
- Techman Robot
- Denso
- Epson
- Kawasaki
- Nachi
- Omron
- Schneider Electric=
