Robotic deburring cell virtual prototyping
Journal Title: Proceedings in Manufacturing Systems - Year 2015, Vol 10, Issue 4
Abstract
This paper presents the works performed by the authors in the field of robotic deburring applications. It describes the virtual prototyping and kinematic analysis of a robotic cell developed for plastic parts deburring. The cell layout includes a 6 degrees of freedom (DOF) articulated arm robot, a vacuum gripper for work piece manipulation and a deburring end-effector with radial compliance. The cell features one input and one output through two belt conveyors. After designing the layout of the cell and developing the 3D virtual prototype, the kinematic behavior of the robot, configurations and collision occurrence were evaluated using DMU Kinematics module inside CATIA V5 software.
