Abstract
This paper investigates a Deburring process which is integrated with a robotics application. Conventional tumble deburring processes have been used for years in the surface finishing industries. The manual process is tedious, inconsistent and inaccurate. Automation in the finishing process has been proved very beneficial. Integration of robots in the process provides more flexible and convenient process. We investigate the off-line simulation of finishing edges using the Product Life Cycle tool DELMIA®. The process extracts the feature to generate a part finishing process plan. Collisions with the environment are detected and avoided through the simulation of cutting the path before the path is downloaded to the actual hardware. Either the tool or the part is being fixed on the robot’s end effector and simulated with respect to the defined path. This paper presents the complete off-line simulation of the Part in Hand as well as Tool in Hand approaches for the deburring process.
