In robotic grinding, significant tool deflection occurs due to the lower stiffness of the manipulator and tool, compared with operation by universal grinding machines. Tool deflection during robotic grinding operation causes geometrical errors in the workpiece cross section. Also, it makes difficult to control the grinding cutting depth. In this study, a method is proposed for calculation of the tool deflection in normal and tangential directions based on grinding force feedback in these directions. Based on calculated values, a real-time tool deflection compensation (TDC) algorithm is developed and implemented. Force interaction between the tool and workpiece is significant for grinding operation. Implementing grinding with constant normal force is a well-known approach for improving surface quality. Tool deflection in the robotic grinding causes orientation between the force sensor reference frame and tool reference frame. This means that the measured normal and tangential forces by the sensor are not actual normal and tangential interaction forces between the tool and workpiece. In order to eliminate this problem, a resultant grinding force control strategy is designed and implemented for a parallel hexapod-robotic light abrasive surface grinding operation. Due to the nonlinear nature of the grinding operation, a supervised fuzzy controller is designed where the reference input is identified by the developed grinding force model. This grinding model is optimized for the robotic grinding operation considering setup stiffness. Evaluation of the experimental results demonstrates significant improvement in grinding operation accuracy using the proposed resultant force control strategy in parallel with a real-time TDC algorithm.

High speed tooltip FRF predictions of arbitrary tool-holder combinations based on operational spindle identification Postel, M.; Özşahin, Orkun; Altintas, Y. (Elsevier BV, 2018-06-01) The chatter vibrations in milling are avoided by selecting spindle speeds and depth of cuts from the stability lobes. However, it has been well observed that the structural dynamics of the spindle system change as a function of speed and even feed. As a result, the measurement of spindle structure's Frequency Response Function (FRF) at zero speed does not lead to an accurate prediction of stability lobes, hence the productive cutting conditions cannot be estimated accurately. In this study, an in-process id...
Thermal history and microstructure during friction stir welding of Al-Mg alloy Sheikh-Ahmad, J. Y.; Ozturk, F.; Jarrar, F.; Evis, Zafer (Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2016-09-01) In this study, a commercial aluminum-magnesium alloy was friction stir welded (FSW) at a constant rotational speed of 1016 rpm and different welding speeds from 50 to 400 mm/min. Temporal thermal histories of the process were recorded at different locations from the weld line and transformed to spatial temperature distribution near the weld line. Tensile and microhardness measurements were also performed and the microstructure in the weld zone was investigated. Results of this revealed that an increase in w...
Performance evaluation of piezoelectric sensor/actuator on active vibration control of a smart beam Şahin, Melin (SAGE Publications, 2011-01-01) In this paper the performance of a piezoelectric sensor/actuator pair and self-sensing piezoelectric actuator on the investigation of vibration characteristics and active vibration control of a smart beam are presented. The performance of piezoelectric patches on actuation and sensing is evaluated by investigating the vibration characteristics of the smart beam via various excitation mechanisms and transduction systems. For active vibration suppression of the smart beam, robust controllers are designed and ...
Effect analysis of bearing and interface dynamics on tool point FRF for chatter stability in machine tools by using a new analytical model for spindle-tool assemblies Ertuerk, A.; Özgüven, Hasan Nevzat; Budak, E. (Elsevier BV, 2007-01-01) Self-excited vibration of the tool, regenerative chatter, can be predicted and eliminated if the stability lobe diagram of the spindle-holder-tool assembly is known. Regardless of the approach being used, analytically or numerically, forming the stability lobe diagram of an assembly implies knowing the point frequency response function (FRF) in receptance form at the tool tip. In this paper, it is aimed to study the effects of spindle-holder and holder-tool interface dynamics, as well as the effects of indi...
Energy conscious scheduling of a material handling robot in a manufacturing cell Gürel, Sinan; Akhlaghi, Vahid Eghbal (Elsevier BV, 2019-08-01) In cyclic scheduling of material handling robots in manufacturing cells, a common approach is to minimize the cycle time objective, which is a measure of the throughput of the cell. In a typical robot move cycle, robot move times constitute a significant portion of the cycle time. During handling operations, robots consume significant amount of energy, which is determined by their speed, load and the distance they travel. In this paper, we propose considering robot speed decisions along with robot move sequ...
