Stability Analysis of Milling Chatter in Six-Degree-of-Freedom Industrial Robots

Abstract

Due to the low structural rigidity of six-DOF industrial robots, the chattering phenomenon is prone to occur under the excitation of periodic milling force, which has an effect on the processing quality of workpieces. In this paper, the influence of milling parameters on the chatter stability of six-DOF robot milling is studied, under the consideration of the modal coupling effect and the regenerative effect on milling stability. First, a modal equation considering both the modal coupling effect and the regenerative effect is developed. Second, based on the fully discrete method, the chatter stability domain model of six-DOF robot (namely, the stability lobe diagram) is established, and the influences of the axial depth of cut, radial depth of cut, and feed rate on the stability of the machining system are analyzed. Finally, the accuracy of the prediction results of the chatter stability domain model is verified by milling experiments.

Static Analysis of Manipulator Based on Solidworks and ANSYS Workbench

“…In Solidworks, some of the tiny features are removed from the armlet model, then the modified model is saved as a *x.t file in a format recognized by ANSYS Workbench software. And then the ANSYS in Workbench is imported, the unit type is set to SOLID187, and the material properties of the small arm and the material properties of the large arm are shown in Table 1 [7][8][9][10][11] . In order to facilitate the analysis, only the static dynamics of the robot arm in the horizontal position and the vertical position of the two attitudes are analyzed.…”

High-precision visual monitoring of robot arm position based on deep learning

“…The degree of technological sophistication of the robotic arm, which is the primary factor in determining whether the robotic arm can successfully complete the gripping, assembling, processing, and other operational duties, is indicated by the absolute positioning accuracy of the end of the robotic arm. [1]. Denavit Hartenberg (DH) parameter calibration is the most effective way to improve the absolute positioning accuracy of a robotic arm, and one of the key issues is how to accurately measure the error in the end position and attitude of the robotic arm [2].…”
