Automatic grinding using robot manipulators requires simultaneous control of the robot endpoint and force interaction between the robot and the constraint surface. In robotic grinding, surface quality can be increased by accurate estimation of grinding forces where significant tool and workpiece deflection occurs. The small diameter of the tool causes different behavior in the grinding process in comparison with the tools that are used by universal grinding machines. In this study, we develop a robotic surface grinding force model to predict the normal and tangential grinding forces. A physical model is used based on chip formation energy and sliding energy. To improve the model for robotic grinding operations, a refining term is added. The stiffness of the tool and setup is inherently included using penetration test results and estimating the refining term of the model. The model coefficients are calculated using a linear regression technique. The proposed model is validated by comparing model outputs with experimentally obtained data. Evaluation of the test results demonstrates the effectiveness of the proposed model in predicting surface grinding forces.

Development of high performance grinding process using hybrid redundant manipulator
Latifi Navid, Masoud; Konukseven, Erhan İlhan; Department of Mechanical Engineering (2017)
Automatic grinding using robot manipulators, requires simultaneous control of the robot endpoint and force interaction between the robot and the constraint surface. In robotic grinding, surface quality can be increased by accurate estimation of grinding forces where significant tool and workpiece deflection occurs. Tool deflection during robotic grinding operation causes geometrical errors in the workpiece cross-section. Also, it makes controlling the grinding cutting depth difficult. Moreover small diamete...
Hybrid force and motion control of robots with flexible links
KILIÇASLAN, SİNAN; Özgören, Mustafa Kemal; Ider, S. Kemal (2010-01-01)
Considering robot manipulators with flexible links, a new method is proposed to control their constrained end-effector motions and the associated contact forces and/or moments. The equations of motion are separated into two parts that represent the pseudostatic equilibrium and the deviations from it. The feedforward part of the control input based on the pseudostatic equilibrium is determined algebraically and the feedback part of the control input for the stabilization of the deviations is obtained by mean...
OUTDOOR LOCALIZATION OF A ROBOTIC PLATFORM USING PANAROMIC IMAGES
Ekinci, Gülçin Ceren; Koku, Ahmet Buğra; Department of Mechanical Engineering (2021-7-8)
Advances in robotics liberated robots from factory floors by the end of 20th century. Use of robots in our daily lives is only expected to increase in time. Robots, while relieving us from the burden of tedious, hard and dangerous tasks, most of them are still expected to be territorial, i.e. they will operate in a predefined or rather bounded environment. For enhanced performance, a robot should be familiar with its territory. In this work, use of skylines extracted from panoramic images is studied in orde...
Hybrid Force and Motion Control of a Three-Dimensional Flexible Robot Considering Measurement Noises
Kılıçaslan, Sinan; Özgören, Mustafa Kemal; Ider, Sıtkı Kemal (2022-07-01)
This work addresses the end-effector trajectory-tracking force and motion control of a three-dimensional three-link robot considering measurement noises. The last two links of the manipulator are considered as structurally flexible. An absolute coordinate approach is used while obtaining the dynamic equations to avoid complex dynamic equations. In this approach, each link is modeled as if there is no connection between the links. Then, joint connections are expressed as constraint equations. After that, the...
Trajectory tracking control of flexible-joint robots
Ider, SK; Özgören, Mustafa Kemal (2000-07-01)
Inverse dynamics control of flexible-joint robots is addressed. It is shown that, in a flexible-joint robot, the acceleration level inverse dynamic equations are singular because the control torques do not have an instantaneou; effect on the end-effector accelerations due to the elastic media. Implicit numerical integration methods that account for the higher order derivative information are utilized for solving the singular set of differential equations. The trajectory tracking control law presented linear...
