How Robots are Used in Sandblasting
Robotic Sandblasting, also known as abrasive blasting, is a surface treatment process that sprays abrasive particles under high pressure against a surface. It leverages the abrasive nature of different blasting media to smooth, shape or clean a surface. This is commonly used in the manufacturing industry for cleaning metal parts, removing rust and paint, etching glass and creating textures on surfaces.

How Have Robots Helped Us During Covid-19?
In the early stages of Covid-19, many countries were not well equipped to combat the virus. Besides the existing work medical staff had, they also had to cope with the pandemic, which placed them at a higher risk due to increased exposure. Hence, the medical industry began to turn to robots as an alternative solution.
