THIS PAPER DISCUSSES SOME OF THE ADVANTAGES, PROBLEMS OF ADAPTION, INTEGRATION, DESIGN AND PROBLEMS ARISING FROM THESE TYPES OF OPERATIONS. UTILIZATION OF ROBOTS OFFERS ANOTHER ALTERNATIVE OF GRINDING AUTOMATION. ROBOTS CAN IMPROVE FINISHING OPERATIONS PROVIDING MORE CONSISTENCY IN FINISHED PARTS, OFTEN PROCESSING PARTS FASTER THAN BY HAND AND CAN WORK IN NOISY, DUSTY ENVIRONMENTS THAT HUMANS FIND UNSUITABLE OR HAZARDOUS. SAVINGS FROM AUTOMATION OF MANUAL BELT-GRINDING CAN BE SUBSTANTIAL.
