Abstract

With the rapid development of modern industry, the surface of workpieces is becoming increasingly complex, and workpieces present the trend of small personalized batches. Robot polishing has become one of the required precision machining methods because of their excellent flexibility, ample working space, and strong maneuverability. Therefore, this paper reviews a series of precision machining methods based on robotic technology. First of all, the seven aspects of the operating principle of industrial robot polishing system like robot polishing force control technology, robot polishing trajectory planning, robot polishing path planning, robot teaching programming technology, robot polishing vibration control, multi-robot polishing control technology, and commercial robotic polishing systems, have been carried on in detailed by discussion and analysis. Secondly, researches on the basic architecture of the polishing robot are concluded by two aspects as researches on structure classification of the polishing robot and design of robot polishing end-effector. Finally, the study of robot polishing and future work are summarized.
