Abstract
A method for polishing fibers implements a fiber polishing system. The method includes manipulating a disk, spraying water using a first water pressure, and spraying air using an air pressure. The method further includes misting low pressure water using a second water pressure, manipulating a handle, and manipulating one or more dogs.
Claims20
A method for polishing fibers comprising:
- manipulating, using an end effector of a robot, a disk;
- spraying, using the end effector of the robot, water at the disk using a first water pressure;
- spraying, using the end effector of the robot, air at the disk using an air pressure to remove excess water;
- misting, using the end effector of the robot, low pressure water at the disk using a second water pressure;
- manipulating, using the end effector of the robot, a handle of a fiber polisher;
- and
- manipulating, using the end effector of the robot, one or more dogs of the fiber polisher.
