Automated polishing of sharp edges on gas-turbine components by abrasive polymer brushes

Regression modeling and prediction of road sweeping brush load characteristics from finite element analysis and experimental results

“…So far many studies on brush theories have been conducted, including those for brush finishing/polishing industries (Shia and Stango, 1997;Chen et al, 2001;Makarov et al, 2012;Mathai and Melkote, 2012), brush seal applications (Chew et al, 1995;Kudriavtsev and Braun, 1996), simulation of brush writing in Chinese calligraphy (Wong and Ip, 2000;Xu et al, 2002), and tooth brushes. Many of these were based on mathematical deformation analysis of cantilever beams, but there has not been a universal model or theory that can be used to describe general brush behaviors.…”

Development and application of new innovation technologies in manufacturing modern gas turbine engine

“…Комбинированное В результате внедрения технологии скругления и полирования кромок пазов дисков турбин абразивно-полимерными щетками повысились производительность, качество и стабильность обрабоки кромок [7]. Так, при ручном скруглении на обработку диска требовалось 8 ч работы.…”

Statistical Analysis of Industrial Grinding Brush Force Characteristics Based on Finite Element Approach

“…Steel grinding brushes are currently widely used on hand hold grinders to perform these tasks without comprehensive control techniques. Intelligent grinding robots with brush tools are still rare in the market [5,6] due to difficulties involved in the end effector control, and more often the surface processing machines are large equipment with other effectors such as those based on magnetic assisted finishing methods [7][8][9].…”
