Robotized System For Processing Of Helical Surfaces

The paper deals with the solution of the finish-abrasive processing issue (contour grinding) of external helical surface. It is proposed to use a robotic system including an external tool, a multi-axis manipulator with a mounted workpiece. The paper investigates the influence of the workpiece movement trajectory relative to the external tool with respect to the parameters identifying a helical surface. As a solution, we proposed to use the algorithm to be developed for robot program performance. The program is developed on the basis of required surface parameters of quality. The approach enables to achieve effective helical surfaces technologies.
