Tool Path Correction

More and more often, production processes use solutions in which robots cooperate with vision systems. This is related to the implementation of "pick and place" tasks or tool path correction during the machining process. Vision systems exchange information with robot controllers, which enables the detection of a specific object, obtaining information about its location and orientation. As part of the article, it was decided to design and build a robotic station in the RobotStudio environment for deburring car rims. The process of designing the algorithm in the MATLAB environment that allows to determine the position and orientation of the processed detail was presented. Both MATLAB and RobotStudio environments communicate via the TCP/IP protocol. The verification of operation and simulation of the constructed station were presented.

The assisted assembly of customized products supported by collaborative robots combined with mixed reality devices is the current trend in the Industry 4.0 concept. This article introduces an experimental work cell with the implementation of the assisted assembly process for customized cam switches as a case study. The research is aimed to design a methodology for this complex task with full digitalization and transformation data to digital twin models from all vision systems. Recognition of position and orientation of assembled parts during manual assembly are marked and checked by convolutional neural network (CNN) model. Training of CNN was based on a new approach using virtual training samples with single shot detection and instance segmentation. The trained CNN model was transferred to an embedded artificial processing unit with a high-resolution camera sensor. The embedded device redistributes data with parts detected position and orientation into mixed reality devices and collaborative robot. This approach to assisted assembly using mixed reality, collaborative robot, vision systems, and CNN models can significantly decrease assembly and training time in real production.

The deformation machining process (DMP) involves machining and incremental forming of thin structures. It can be applied for manufacturing products such as curved-surface blades without using 5-axis computerised numerical control machines. This work presents the effect of tool diameter and forming temperature on spring-back and dimensional accuracy of a simple fabricated part. The results of the first phase of the study are utilised to design the fabrication process of a curved surface blade. A feature-based algorithm is used to design the tool path for the forming process. The dimensional accuracy of the final product is improved through warm forming, two-point incremental forming, and extension of the bending zone to the outside of the product edges. The results show that DMP can be used to fabricate complex curved-surface workpieces with acceptable dimensional accuracy.

Incremental sheet metal forming, is a non-conventional machining process which offers higher formability, flexibility and low cost of production than the traditional conventional forming process. Punch or tool used in this forming process consecutively forces the sheet to deform locally and ultimately gives the target profile. Various machining parameters, such as type of tool, tool path, tool size, feed rate and mechanical properties of sheet metal, like strength co-efficient, strain hardening index and ultimate tensile strength, effects the forming process and the formability of final product. In this research paper, Single Point Incremental Forming was simulated using Dassault system’s Abaqus 6.12-1 and results are obtained. Results of sheet profile and there change in thickness is investigated. For this paper, we simulated the process in abaqus. The tool diameter and rotational speed is find out for the production of parts through incremental forming. The simulation is done for two type of material with different mechanical properties. Various research papers were used to understand the process of incremental forming and its simulation.

Chatter has been a problem in CNC machining process especially during machining thin-walled components with low stiffness. For accurately predicting chatter stability in machining Ti6Al4V thin-walled components, this paper establishes a chatter prediction method considering of cutting parameters and tool path. The fast chatter prediction method for thin-walled components is based on physical simulation software. Cutting parameters and tool path is achieved through the chatter stability lobes test and finite element simulation. Machining process is simulated by the physical simulation software using generated NC code. This proposed method transforms the NC physical simulation toward the practical methodology for the stability prediction over the multi-pocket structure milling.

The study aimed to develop an algorithm for computer-aided design (CAD) of working operations. A processing route for machining components was developed based on the criteria of production manufacturability, industrial data and a digital model of the product. The process of machining a workpiece was analysed using a method of theoretical separation. The machining process of a frame workpiece was used as a model. The identified formal parameters formed a basis for developing a CAD algorithm and a model of manufacturing route associated with the mechanical processing of a work-piece applying a condition-action rule, as well as mathematical logic. The research afforded a scheme for selecting process operations, given the manufacturability parameters of a product design. The concept of CAD algorithm was developed to design a production process of engineering products with given manufacturability parameters, including industrial data. The principle of forming a route and selecting a machining process was proposed. Several criteria of production manufacturability (labour intensity, consumption of materials, production costs) were selected to evaluate mechanical processing. A CAD algorithm for designing technological operations considering the parameters of manufacturability was developed. The algorithm was tested by manufacturing a frame workpiece. The developed algorithm can be used for reducing labour costs and development time, at the same time as improving the quality of production processes. The formalisation of process design is a crucial stage in digitalisation and automation of all production processes.

Theoretical Results

In previous work, we and others have developed visibility-based tool path generation schemes. Almost all previous research implicitly assumes that all visible parts are machinable. Though usually true practice, this assumption hides several subtleties inherent to the geometry of the machining process. Here, we define machinability in a stricter sense, as a generalization of the robotic path planning problem. Then, we define various “tight” necessary conditions for strict machinability, and show the connections between these conditions. After demonstrating the richness of the information contained in visibility, we show how to compute visibility effectively. Visible directions constitute an approximate feasible configuration space of a cutting tool. We also address questions pertaining to the topological connectivity of the feasible space. The theoretical results of this paper lay down a firmer foundation of machining path planning.
