Abstract
Relates to the automatic operation and control of a surface treating device having a powered tool and a work wheel for engagement with a work piece, said device being carried on a robotic arm and being adapted to maintain a uniform pressure of engagement of said work wheel with a work piece and a uniform rate of speed of the working surface of said work wheel in its engagement with the work piece, and a balancing pressure applied to said powered tool and work wheel to in effect make them weightless for their precise control.
