Dynamic analysis of assembly process with passive compliance for robot manipulators

Abstract

Assembly automation has become a research highlight for years. Dynamics of the most fundamental peg-in-hole mating, which represents an important topic of future research, is, however, far from being resolved. To this end, the overall part-mating dynamics has been developed, and simulations have been implemented. The sensitivity analysis of each parameter on the assembly process has been made. The dynamic properties of assembly with the RCC have been concluded, which helps to implement active control. By selecting proper parameters of the dynamic remote center compliance, one can optimize assembly proceeding.
