An Advanced Deburring and Chamfering System

摘要

A second-generation automated deburring cell is currently under development at the National Institute of Standards and Technology. This cell will be capable of automatically generating, from part geometry and machining information, a series of robot paths for deburring aerospace parts made from superalloys. In order to compensate for the inaccuracy of robots when following computed coordinates, an actively-controlled end effector will be used to precisely position a rotary file in response to forces sensed at the part edge.
