Tool for precision application of masking tape by robots - ATK Active Taping Kit

The Active Taping Kit - ATK is a finely tuned system based on the patented Active Compliant Technology (ACT) and a tape applicator optimized for robot use.
This integrated complete solution automates the industrial taping and masking process with individual control of all process parameters: contact force, cutting, tape ­consumption.
Aerobotix and FerRobotics, two leading robotics companies based in the U.S. and Austria have partnered on a new solution in response to aerospace industry demand for an automated tool for precision masking tape application.
Collaboration between engineers from the two companies has led to the development of a revolutionary End of Arm Tooling (EOAT). After months of prototypes and testing during the pandemic, the new Active Taping Kit (ATK) tool was completed, with FerRobotics’ patented Active Compliant Technology (ACT) enabling a robot to use constant force when applying tape to an aircraft (also up-side-down). The tool allows for smooth masking on parts varying in shape and puts down perfect tape lines where the customer needs them.
