Increasingly, sanding problems are solved with the help of automated solutions. The main goal is not only to improve the health of employees, but also to increase productivity. The robot arm does not get tired, but how to ensure the same good end result as if it was sanded by a professional worker?

New automated solution for sanding wood corners - "Mirka® AIOS". Consistent quality.

Automatic sanding is not only more efficient, but also smarter. An integrated intelligent system ensures two-way communication between the sanding head and the control system. By receiving detailed information about the status of the sander and the possibility of adjustment, you will be able to have full control over the sanding process.

Using Mirka's proprietary technology, the brushless motor and motor controller allow for precise RPM control. The speed remains constant even under heavy load, ensuring consistent quality at all times.

Specially designed for woodworking, the right-angle sander ensures precision and greater productivity and quality - without any dust. The Mirka AIOS 353CV is one of the latest automated products in the Mirka range.
