RobotWorx employs a multi-step process when returning a used robot to like-new condition. Attention is given to every component, every function. Tests are run and adjustments made.
Once the used robot passes through these refurbish and rebuild stages it is considered ready for integration and resale. RobotWorx' used robots provide an affordable, reliable, and full warranty option for customers.
How We Refurbish Robots:
The first step to refurbish a used robot is a thorough cleaning. We clean each robot with a portable dry ice machine. This approach is not only environmentally safe it is faster than more traditional cleaning methods. Next, the entire unit receives a more detailed cleaning with wire brushes, cloths, and some chemical cleaning agents. This is where we pay special attention to refurbishing the interior of the control cabinet. Later, following any testing and rebuild processing, the robot and controller receive a fresh coat of paint.

The Steps to Rebuild a Robot:
During the rebuild and refurbish process, RobotWorx staff visually inspect every inch of the robot, from cabling and controller components to axes and arm covers.
The next steps call for more investigative work and routine replacement. Lubricants in the arm are flushed out and exchanged with new grease. Fans within the controller are tested. Batteries are replaced and electronic components (amps, boards, servo motors, wire harness) inspected, tested, and replaced if necessary.
Finally, we test functionality and repeatability. Any adjustments to axes or internal communications take place at this point.
