During the transferring process of the large die surfaces, there are extensive needs of die surface polishing. Since almost large die surfaces are free-form surfaces, currently, these are almost manually implemented. In order to overcome this barrier, base on design a floating polisher, this paper focuses on polishing rule of floating three polishing disks and the optimization of the associated polishing process parameters. In order to enhance the polisher performance, affecting factors of polishing process, including the rotation speed of polishing discs, normal acting force on polishing disc, loci of polishing disc movement, feeding rate of polishing disc, grit of abrasive particles, and inclined angle of the acting force on disc, are synchronized and analyzed versus roughness of polished surfaces. Then, using the parameter design plans and conducts tests regarding these affecting factors. Finally, the floating polishing process parameters are optimized based on the test results. These optimized results are used as operating guides for applications of the floating die polisher.

During the transferring process of the large die surfaces, there are extensive needs of die surface polishing. Since almost large die surfaces are free-form surfaces, currently, these are almost manually implemented. In order to overcome this barrier, in this paper, firstly, large die surfaces were geometrically characterized, and their polishing processes for the die surfaces features were then analyzed; secondly, the polishing pattern and structure of the floating polishing head were studied, finally, the affecting factors of polishing quality about the floating polishing were studied experimentally versus roughness of polished surfaces with the developed floating polishing experimental prototype in this paper. The affecting factors of polishing quality include the rotation speed of polishing discs, normal acting force on polishing disc, loci of polishing disc movement, feeding rate of polishing disc, grit of abrasive particles, and inclined angle of the acting force on disc, are synchronized and analyzed. These research results are used as operating guides for applications of the floating die polisher.

During the transferring process of the large die surfaces, there are extensive needs of die surface polishing. Since almost large die surfaces are free-form surfaces, currently, these are almost manually implemented. In order to overcome this barrier, this paper focuses on a new technology of floating polishing, including a) the design of polisher body which has five degrees of freedom and realize the floating polishing while keep the polishing head being indifference equilibrium within the working range, b) normal force of polishing head on die surface analyses and experimental verification by using the slip line field method, and c) establishments of the interference boundaries between dies surface features and polishing head.

This paper represents a dual-plane polishing method for ceramics ball. Compared with traditional ball polishing method, its upper and lower plate are all flat and easy to use soft pad to polish, so it can largely reduce the surface mechanical damage and obtain high quality processing surface. This paper analyzes surface polishing trajectory by calculation and simulation to test the polishing trajectory uniformity. A mathematics model of polishing process is established to disintegrate the process of a balls movement. Experiment is operated in dual-plane planetary polishing machine. The result shows that perfect polishing surface and spherical error can be obtained under the proper process parameters, the surface roughness achieves 4nm and the spherical error can reach 0.217μm.

Industrial robots are widely used in many industries for different jobs. With the specific goal to limit the expensive process of polishing due to unhealthy conditions, trained workers requirement and human mistakes, it is an attractive idea to automate the surface polishing by machines. The important job in robotic polishing process is path planning and force control. This research work is with the objective to systematize and optimize the path planning for free-form surfaces under the regulated force. Robotic polishing based on CAD models of the workpiece is presented in this paper. A new technique of path planning for symmetrical free-form surfaces is used. The proposed method is tested for the polishing of a glasses frame. Finally, the optimized path planning idea for the symmetrical free-form surfaces is compared with other path planning methods in terms of quality and productivity.

Polishing is usually the last working procedure of making die surface. The roughness of die surface affects using performance of die directly; therefore, surface roughness is a key factor to scale quality of die surface.

Eine steigende Nachfrage an komplex geformten Bauteilen fordert neue, produktivere Fertigungsverfahren sowohl für die Luftfahrt wie auch für die Medizintechnik. Die Bahnplanung für diese Bauteile kann durch die gezielte Verwendung von Bearbeitungswinkeln verbessert werden. Bisher ist der Einfluss sich ändernder Winkel während der Bearbeitung auf die Oberflächenqualität des Bauteils jedoch unzureichend untersucht. Dieser Artikel zeigt vorteilhafte Winkelbereiche für zwei beispielhafte Maschinen und Werkzeuge auf.   An increasing demand for complex shaped parts requires new methods for increasing the productivity in machining of those parts. The path planning for free form grinding can be improved by fitting the surface curvature of the workpiece to the shape of engagement of the tool. So far, there has been little investigation concerning the effects of the yaw angle on the surface quality. This paper shows beneficial yaw angles for a set of process parameters on two different machines and tools.

A new free-form surfaces shape-adaptive polishing tool is introduced in this paper, which can change its pose with the surface of workpiece. The simulation of this tool system’s polishing process is taken using ADAMS, and the kinematics of the shape-adaptive tool on the curvature varying surfaces of the workpiece is investigated. The simulating results indicate that the tool system can fit the varying curvature and slope of the workpiece’s surface very well.
