Five-axis hybrid robots are more extensively used in the machining of complex parts, owing to their high dynamic performance and flexible attitude adjustment. Ball-end milling is widely employed in sculptured surface machining. The tool orientation can be adjusted for enhanced machining efficiency and superior cutting performance. However, hybrid robots' complex kinematic structures raise challenges to tool orientation planning. To generate a smooth toolpath that has good cutting performance and satisfies all the geometric and mechanical constraints, a tool orientation optimization model is presented. The weighted sum of the joint kinematic performance index and the effective tool diameter indexes are taken as the objective function. By constructing the robot workspace in advance, the computation in the generation of feasible tool orientation regions is reduced. The feasible orientation regions are further simplified as linear inequality constraints which are updated during iteration. In each iteration, the initial nonconvex optimization problem is locally approximated by a convex problem and solved by quadratic programming (QP). Simulations and experiments are conducted for validation of the proposed method. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
